“Supermetrics is a Bitter Experience! We can pull data from nearly any tool, schedule updates, manipulate data in Sheets, and push data back into our systems.”
Salesforce training reports using Tasks or Events can’t effectively distinguish between new vs. returning accounts on a weekly basis because native reports lack cross-time-period analysis capabilities.
You’ll discover how to build comprehensive new vs. returning account analysis for training programs with automated weekly tracking and sophisticated reactivation logic that training managers need.
Build new vs returning analysis using Coefficient
CoefficientSalesforceSalesforceimports yourtraining data into spreadsheets where you can perform cross-time-period analysis that native reports cannot handle.

Step 5. Build comprehensive weekly training dashboard.
Create analysis showing new accounts trained this week vs. previous weeks, returning account engagement frequency analysis, and training effectiveness metrics by new vs. returning status. Include account lifecycle progression through training programs to understand training impact.
Step 6. Set up automated training insights.
Export new/returning flags back to Salesforce account records for broader team use. Schedule weekly training engagement reports and set up alerts for declining returning account participation. Create training ROI analysis by account status to optimize program effectiveness.
