Hello,
I work in insurance but I am trying to pivot into tech sales. I am having trouble explaining my metrics during interviews. For us, our KPI is based on a quota issued to each state. Ex Ma being 143%. Throughout Ma, we have multiple offices but my office, in particular, is currently at 260% of quota. I have brought in 60,000 of sales for our team. Since I don't have a quato, how can I demonstrate my performance. Many thanks!!

That seems clear enough to me, honestly. I would just leave off the feeling of uncertainty at the end.

If your quota is per state, just take the average of all the state percentages that you have quota for and say that is your percentage

It can save so much time for everyone involved.
