How we sell:
Our new business team operates based on two core assumptions…
- We can research how our prospective customers would benefit from Knexus platform before we even meet them (at product demo stage). This means we do a lot of preparation before we even meet prospects, which reduces the time required on discovery in early meetings and allows us to show Knexus platform sooner
- Knexus platform typically exceeds customer expectations – so we look for the quickest path to get prospects signed up and using the platform
