Qtell for Finance
Connect spend, revenue and risk across the business
Bring together finance, sales, marketing and operational data so Finance can verify what spend produces, test revenue forecasts against business performance and see where revenue is concentrated.
Start with Qtell →CONNECT SPEND TO REVENUE
See what customer acquisition actually produces
Qtell can bring marketing spend together with customer and revenue data held in other systems, giving Finance a clearer view of what the business spends to acquire customers and what those customers go on to generate.
Customer acquisition cost by channel and campaign
See what it costs to acquire customers from each source.
Time to recover acquisition costs
See how long customer revenue takes to cover the cost of acquiring them.
Customer value compared with acquisition cost
Compare what different customer groups generate with what the business spent to acquire them.
Revenue linked to marketing activity
Measure marketing investment against the customers and revenue it contributes to.
VERIFY THE FORECAST
Compare current sales activity with previous conversion
Finance can use current sales information together with historical conversion and timing data to assess whether expected revenue is supported by previous business performance.
Where the relevant historical data is available, Qtell can compare current opportunities with previous periods, see how conversion differs by stage or customer type and identify where expected revenue is not supported by the sales activity behind it.
KNOW YOUR EXPOSURE
See where revenue is concentrated
Qtell can bring customer and revenue information together to show how much of the business depends on particular customers, groups or segments.
Finance can see which customers account for the largest share of revenue and, where historical data is available, how that concentration is changing over time.
This gives Finance a clearer view of the revenue exposed if a major customer or customer group changes.
KNOW WHAT NEEDS ATTENTION
See changes in cost, revenue and payment activity
Qtell can monitor defined financial and business measures across connected systems and surface changes that need attention.
That could include costs increasing, revenue moving away from expectations, payment activity changing or another financial measure moving outside the range Finance expects.
Where business memory or historical data is available, Qtell can compare current performance with previous periods and investigate what is driving the change.
ANSWER QUESTIONS ACROSS THE BUSINESS
Get to the numbers without reconciling systems by hand
Finance questions often depend on information held outside the finance system.
Qtell can bring together the relevant information from finance, sales, marketing, CRM, booking and operational systems and return one answer using the same definitions and permissions throughout.
For example:
What does it cost us to acquire a customer through each marketing channel?
How much revenue comes from our ten largest customers?
Does current sales activity support the revenue forecast?
Which customer acquisition sources recover their cost fastest?
KEEP FINANCE MOVING
Turn financial findings into follow-up
Qtell can send alerts, assign follow-up and route work to the appropriate person or team when a defined financial condition needs attention.
That means a cost increase, revenue variance or other defined condition can move from identification to the person responsible for reviewing or acting on it.
Data Governance
Keep the same definitions behind every financial number
Qtell keeps definitions and permissions consistent when Finance uses information from different parts of the business.
Measures such as revenue, customer, customer acquisition cost, customer value, sales pipeline and conversion can follow the agreed business definition wherever that information is used in Qtell or requested from Qtell by an AI application.

USE THE AI TOOLS YOUR TEAM ALREADY HAS
Keep financial definitions consistent across AI
Your AI can change. Your business rules shouldn’t.
When an AI application needs business data, it can ask Qtell. Qtell applies the same definitions, permissions and business context before returning the answer.
That means questions about revenue, customer acquisition cost, customer value or other financial measures can use the same agreed business definitions regardless of which AI application asks the question.
Qtell appears as a plugin inside the AI tools your team already uses.
USE THE LEVEL OF HISTORY YOU NEED
Use current financial data now and history when the analysis requires it
If you already have a suitable data environment, Qtell can work with it. If you do not, Qtell can provide and manage the historical data foundation when needed.
Qtell can work directly with current information from the systems you connect.
Business memory retains selected information over time, allowing Finance to compare measures and track changes from activation onwards.
Existing historical data supports analysis that depends on previous business performance, including time to recover customer acquisition costs, customer value, historical conversion, revenue concentration trends and forecasting.
Trust & Security
Security is built into the platform
Access control, isolation, audit and data protection are part of how Qtell handles business data across the platform.
