THE SAAS CONTEXT

A demo is progress. A buyer commitment is stronger evidence.

These are the questions this work helps your team answer.

  1. 01

    The demo ended without a next meeting.

    Identify the buyer’s success criteria and agree who owns the evaluation.

  2. 02

    The champion has gone quiet.

    Check the last commitment and the wider buying team before proposing another message.

  3. 03

    The close date moved. The reason did not.

    Ask which buyer decision changed before carrying the same forecast into the next week.

THE QUESTION

The demo is done. What should the next buyer conversation achieve?

01 / PREPARE

Deal action brief

The demo is complete, but the evaluation has no owner or next meeting. Prepare a follow-up that confirms the buyer’s success criteria and who needs to join.

02 / CHECK

What to check

Check the demo notes, latest buyer response and agreed evaluation criteria.

03 / DECIDE

Agree the next meeting’s purpose and owner before approving the follow-up.
