Using this calculator
What counts as a qualified lead?
A contact from the event that sales agreed is worth pursuing — a booked meeting, a demo request, or an opportunity created in your CRM. Use the number your sales team would actually accept, not raw scans.
Should I include soft ROI like brand and retention?
This calculator focuses on pipeline you can defend to finance. Brand lift, customer retention and partner value are real but harder to attribute — note them separately when you present.
Where do I get a realistic win rate?
Ask sales for the historical close rate on event-sourced opportunities. If you have no baseline, 15–25% is a common planning range for warm event leads.
This tool gives planning estimates, not financial advice or guaranteed outcomes. Want help hitting these numbers with a well-run Cvent program? Talk to us.
