ASP (Average Selling Price)
The average deal size across closed-won opportunities in a given period.
Average Selling Price (ASP) is the mean revenue per closed-won deal over a given period. It’s calculated as:
ASP = Total Bookings / Number of Closed-Won Deals
ASP matters because it determines how many deals are needed to hit revenue targets and heavily influences go-to-market design. A low ASP typically requires high-velocity, lower-touch motions (e.g., product-led or inside sales), while a high ASP supports field sales, longer cycles, and more complex deal support.
Tracking ASP over time helps reveal strategic and market shifts:
- Rising ASP can indicate successful upmarket movement, better packaging, or improved deal execution.
- Declining ASP can signal competitive pressure, increased discounting, or a move toward smaller customers.
RevOps teams segment ASP (e.g., by new vs. expansion, SMB vs. mid-market vs. enterprise, product line) and use it alongside win rate, sales cycle length, and pipeline coverage to model quota capacity, hiring plans, and territory design.
