7 Metrics Every Digital Sales Room Should Track

Why metrics matter in digital sales rooms

Today's buyers expect personalised, seamless, and self-directed experiences tailored to their preferences. DSRs answer this call. Sellers can use them to deliver tailored content and insights in a single collaborative space. By giving buyers the experience they expect, sellers can accelerate deals with less back-and-forth and more visibility into where momentum is building.

With the right analytics, DSRs turn engagement into insight — showing revenue teams who's active, what's working, and where deals need support. This way, they can strengthen alignment with buyers and accelerate deals.

In this post, we'll break down the seven most important DSR KPIs you should be tracking and how Seismic helps turn those insights into outcomes. Let's get started!

Metric #1: Buyer engagement score

This score rolls up key behaviours like views, time spent, clicks, and repeat visits to give sellers a reliable signal of buyer interest.

High engagement typically signals strong intent, helping reps prioritise their pipeline and forecast with greater confidence.

Seismic's AI-powered scoring surfaces these indicators automatically, so sellers can focus their energy where it counts most.

Metric #2: Content interaction rate

This metric tracks how buyers interact with specific assets inside a DSR, including which documents they view, rewatch, and share. It reveals what's capturing attention and what's being ignored.

By identifying high-performing content, marketing and enablement teams can double down on what's working and fine-tune or retire what's not.

Seismic delivers these insights through intuitive dashboards that enable repeatable success.

Metric #3: Time spent in room

Time spent in a DSR, often called dwell time, is a powerful indicator of buyer interest. Longer sessions suggest deeper consideration, especially when combined with repeat visits or engagement from multiple stakeholders.

DSRs built with Seismic hold attention longer because they're personalised, always-on, and designed to support asynchronous buying. Sellers can deliver tailored experiences that buyers want to engage with — in whatever format they prefer.

Metric #4: Stakeholder participation

Stakeholder participation is increasingly critical in B2B deals, where buying decisions rarely rest with just one person. According to Forrester, 13 stakeholders on average are now involved in every purchasing decision.

This metric tracks how many unique stakeholders visit the DSR — and, when possible, who they are and what they're viewing.

With Seismic, sellers get visibility into stakeholder engagement, helping them tailor messaging, map influence, and build consensus across the entire buying group.

Metric #5: Time to first interaction

This measures the time between sharing a DSR and the buyer's first interaction. A quick click-through suggests the outreach was timely and relevant. A slow response might point to low urgency — or content that didn't quite land.

Seismic provides real-time notifications and behavioural insights that help sellers refine timing, test if messaging resonates with buyers, and quickly respond to buyer interest at its peak.

Metric #6: Sales rep activation rate

Even the best DSR strategy can fall flat without rep buy-in. This metric shows how often sellers create, customise, and send DSRs — a direct reflection of usability and seller adoption.

With Seismic, activation is seamless. Reps can build and send tailored DSRs directly from their CRM, using dynamic templates to reduce friction. This is exactly how Oracle saw a 300% increase in DSR creation within just three months. See Oracle's success storey.

Metric #7: Conversion rate from DSR to closed deal

This is the ultimate ROI metric. It tracks the percentage of opportunities that go from DSR engagement to closed-won — connecting digital engagement directly to revenue.

Seismic closes the loop with CRM-integrated analytics and attribution reporting, so revenue teams can tie engagement to outcomes and make smarter go-to-market decisions with confidence.
