FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS

  • After the demo, get a sense of what they liked and use it to justify your ask to power.
  • Avoid getting stuck below the line with “yes-and” - loop in the suggestion but also confirm the email you want instead of asking for permission.
  • When you get to power, recap the key problems you found first, then open it up and ask what’s important to them.
  • Start with the worst-case scenario of the results you can drive and get agreement on that being a good outcome first, then over-deliver.
