How to Use Agent Leaderboard to Drive More Conversions
Quickly spot top performers, coach your team, and create a culture of consistent outreach that closes more deals.
Quick Summary
The Agent Leaderboard in Sierra’s Reporting helps you track calls, texts, emails, and new leads by agent, giving you real data to recognize high performers and support those who need help. Use this dashboard to run motivating team meetings, set weekly challenges, and tie activity directly to more closings.
Why This Matters
Without visibility, it is hard to know which agents are consistently working their pipeline. The Agent Leaderboard solves this by showing you exactly who is making the calls, sending the texts, and following up with new leads.
For example, a busy team leader can pull up this dashboard before a weekly huddle to highlight top callers. A broker owner might review monthly trends to see who is driving the most appointments.
This tool makes it easier to:
- Build a culture of accountability
- Coach with facts instead of feelings
- Keep outreach steady so deals keep closing

How This Helps Your Business
The Agent Leaderboard is not just a reporting tool. It is a way to shape your team's culture and directly influence your bottom line. By keeping a close eye on manual outreach, you can:
- Ensure agents are consistently following up with leads
- Encourage healthy competition and celebrate small wins
- Build a system that connects daily activity to signed contracts
- Reduce wasted opportunities and help your team close more deals faster
This means your Sierra CRM becomes more than a database. It becomes the hub where accountability, recognition, and growth all come together.
