Daily Call Volume per Rep

Average number of outbound or inbound calls handled per inside sales rep per day

What is Daily Call Volume per Rep?

Daily call volume per rep is the average number of calls each sales rep makes or receives in a working day. It is a basic activity measure for phone-based selling.

Call activity is a leading indicator of conversations and pipeline, particularly for outbound teams.

Total calls made or received / (Number of reps × Working days in period)

How to calculate it

Divide total calls made or received by the number of reps multiplied by working days in the period.

For example, if 10 reps handled 4,000 calls over 20 days, the figure is 4,000 / (10 x 20) = 20 per rep per day.

Read alongside conversation rates and outcomes, since activity alone does not show effectiveness.

Where it is used

  • Coaching

    Spot reps who need support.

How to improve it
