Recognize the right moment to approach a prospect — and identify the organizations most likely to buy. Covers the five types of OEM buying triggers and how to find them before competitors do.
Map a buying committee you don't have full access to. Identify the real decision-maker vs the formal one. Build a champion who defends your position when you're not in the room.
Why most OEM pilots fail commercially even when they succeed technically — and how to design a pilot that converts. Includes the pilot-to-PO framework and the most common failure modes.
Maintain momentum across a multi-year process with stakeholders whose interests don't fully align. Personnel changes, budget cycles, roadmap shifts.
Read procurement objections correctly — most aren't about price. Position against competitors where buyers evaluate long-term supply risk, not just spec sheets.
Mechanics of closing when the buyer moves at their own pace. NDA-to-PO sequences, preferred vendor status, deal protection over multi-year timelines.
