My Performance Q Data

My Upper-Hand Ratio

The percentage of messages when you had the Upper-Hand. This number is based on the messages in which you were the sender or main recipient.

Estimated Tendencies

Estimated tendencies based on your overall email communication. Try to be in the recommended range to be perceived more favorably by your prospects.

There are three attributes to your estimated tendencies:

  • Competence

    This shows the distribution of sentiment received from prospects vs. the sentiment you have conveyed in the message you sent them.

  • Empathy

    Empathy allows you to walk a mile in your prospects' shoes and understand their pain points and motivations. Being too empathetic may sacrifice your advantage, while not showing enough empathy may come across as being indifferent.

  • Responsiveness

    Your average response time to your prospects. This may impact the way they perceive you. Responding too quickly may signal overenthusiasm, while responding too slowly may signal a lack of motivation.
