Script 1: Enterprise Decision Maker Demo

Persona: COO / VP Sales / CRO
Focus: Strategic value, ROI, competitive advantage
Duration: 45 minutes

Opening Hook (2 minutes)

Script: "Thanks for joining today. I know your time is valuable, so let me start with this: Companies using CloudCRM Pro see an average 35% increase in sales velocity and 40% reduction in operational costs within 6 months. Today, I'll show you exactly how we deliver those results for companies like yours.

In our last conversation, you mentioned three critical challenges: 1. Lack of visibility into pipeline health 2. Inconsistent sales execution across teams 3. Inability to accurately forecast revenue

Let me show you how CloudCRM Pro addresses each of these, starting with your executive command center."

Demo Flow

Section 1: Executive Dashboard (8 minutes)

Transition: "Let's start where you start each day - your executive dashboard."

Screen: Executive Dashboard View

Script: "This is your real-time revenue command center. Notice how everything you need is in one view: - Current quarter pipeline: $47M across 342 opportunities - Forecast vs. target: Tracking at 94% with AI-predicted finish at 97% - Team performance: Instantly see who's ahead and who needs help - Pipeline velocity: Average days in stage with bottleneck alerts

[CLICK on Pipeline Health Score]

See this Pipeline Health Score of 72? This AI-driven metric analyzes 50+ factors including engagement levels, stakeholder involvement, and historical patterns. It's telling us that while pipeline coverage looks good at 3.2x, we have 23 at-risk deals totaling $4.2M that need immediate attention.

[CLICK on At-Risk Deals]

Here are those 23 deals. Notice how the AI explains WHY each is at risk: - This $500K deal has had no activity in 14 days - This one has been stuck in negotiation for 2x the normal time - This one just had the champion leave the company

[DEMONSTRATE: Click into one at-risk deal]

When we drill into this $500K opportunity with TechCorp, the AI not only identifies the risk but prescribes the next best action: 'Schedule executive alignment call within 48 hours. Similar deals that stalled at this stage had 76% recovery rate with executive intervention.'

Value Connection: "This level of intelligence means you're never surprised at quarter-end. You can intervene weeks earlier when deals are still salvageable. Our customers tell us this alone improves forecast accuracy from 65% to over 90%."

Check-in: "How does this compare to the visibility you have today?"

Section 2: Revenue Intelligence (8 minutes)

Transition: "Now let me show you how AI helps you optimize the entire revenue engine."

Screen: Revenue Intelligence Dashboard

Script: "This is where CloudCRM Pro becomes your strategic advisor. Our AI analyzes every customer interaction, every deal movement, and every rep activity to surface insights you can't get anywhere else.

[SHOW Win/Loss Analysis]

Look at this win/loss analysis. The AI has identified that: - We win 73% of deals when we multi-thread with 4+ stakeholders - We win 81% when we do a POC vs. 34% without - Our win rate drops to 22% when Competitor X is involved

[CLICK on Recommended Actions]

Based on this analysis, here are the AI's recommendations: 1. Mandate POCs for all deals over $100K - projected impact: $3.2M additional revenue 2. Implement competitor battle cards for Competitor X - projected win rate improvement: 15% 3. Require 4+ contacts on deals over $50K - projected impact: 27 more wins this year

[SHOW Predictive Forecasting]

This predictive forecast uses machine learning on your historical data. It's showing: - Commit forecast: $12.3M (AI confidence: 91%) - Best case: $14.7M - Worst case: $11.1M - Recommended actions to hit best case

[DEMONSTRATE: What-If Scenarios]

Watch this - I can model scenarios. What if we: - Accelerate these 5 stalled deals? Impact: +$1.2M - Add 2 more reps next month? Impact: +$800K in Q4 - Increase average deal size by 15%? Impact: +$2.1M

Value Connection: "This transforms you from reactive to proactive. Instead of hoping to hit your number, you have a GPS showing exactly how to get there."

Check-in: "What decisions would this help you make differently?"

Section 3: Team Performance Analytics (7 minutes)

Transition: "Let's look at how you can optimize team performance at scale."

Screen: Team Performance Dashboard

Script: "Managing a distributed sales team is challenging. This dashboard gives you instant visibility into performance patterns.

[SHOW Rep Scorecard Grid]

This grid shows all 50 reps across 8 key metrics: - Activity levels (calls, emails, meetings) - Pipeline generation - Conversion rates by stage - Average deal size - Sales cycle length - Win rate - Forecast accuracy - Quota attainment

[CLICK on Underperforming Rep]

When we click on Sarah, who's at 67% of quota, the AI diagnoses the issue: - Her activity levels are fine (actually 110% of target) - But her qualification rate is 40% below average - Recommendation: Needs discovery training, pair with top performer John for 5 calls

[SHOW Coaching Insights]

The AI continuously analyzes what separates top performers from the rest: - Top reps ask 40% more discovery questions - They involve technical evaluators 2x earlier - They use ROI language in 80% of calls vs. 30% for others

[DEMONSTRATE: Team Enablement Plan]

Based on this analysis, here's an auto-generated enablement plan: - Week 1: Discovery training for bottom quartile - Week 2: ROI conversation workshop - Week 3: Technical evaluator engagement training - Projected impact: 22% improvement in team win rate

Value Connection: "This means you can manage by exception. Focus only on what needs attention while the AI handles the analysis. Companies typically see 25% improvement in rep productivity within 90 days."

Check-in: "How would this change how you manage the team?"

Section 4: Strategic Planning Tools (7 minutes)

Transition: "Finally, let me show you how CloudCRM Pro helps with strategic planning."

Screen: Territory & Capacity Planning

Script: "This is where you plan for growth. The AI analyzes your market, team capacity, and historical performance to optimize resource allocation.

[SHOW Territory Heat Map]

This heat map shows opportunity density by region: - West Coast is under-penetrated with $12M potential but only 2 reps - Midwest is over-resourced with 5 reps chasing $3M - Recommendation: Reallocate 2 reps from Midwest to West

[SHOW Capacity Planning Model]

Based on your targets, the model shows: - Current capacity: Can handle $52M with current team - Q3 target: $65M - Gap: Need 4 additional reps hired by end of Q1 - Or improve productivity by 25% through enablement

[DEMONSTRATE: Market Segmentation Analysis]

The AI has analyzed your customer base and identified: - Your sweet spot: 100-500 employee companies in FinTech - Win rate in sweet spot: 47% vs. 19% outside - Recommendation: Refocus 70% of efforts on sweet spot - Projected impact: $7M additional revenue

Value Connection: "This strategic intelligence typically requires expensive consultants and months of analysis. You get it continuously updated in real-time."

Section 5: ROI Demonstration (5 minutes)

Transition: "Let me show you the concrete ROI you can expect."

Screen: ROI Calculator with Their Numbers

Script: "Based on your numbers: - 50 sales reps at $150K OTE = $7.5M cost - Current win rate: 22% - Average deal size: $45K - Sales cycle: 120 days

With CloudCRM Pro improvements: - Win rate improvement: 22% → 30% = $5.4M additional revenue - Sales cycle reduction: 120 → 95 days = 21% more deals/year = $3.8M - Productivity improvement: 25% less admin time = 10 more deals/rep/year = $4.5M - Total revenue impact: $13.7M

Investment: - Software: $90K/year (50 users × $150/month) - Implementation: $30K one-time - Total first year: $120K

ROI: 11,417% or $114 return for every $1 invested Payback period: 3.2 weeks

Value Connection: "This isn't theoretical. GlobalManufacturing saw 14x ROI in year one. TechCorp saw 23x. The average across our enterprise customers is 12x."

Closing (3 minutes)

Script: "We've covered a lot today. You've seen how CloudCRM Pro: 1. Gives you complete pipeline visibility with AI-driven insights 2. Predicts and prescribes actions to hit your revenue targets 3. Optimizes team performance at scale 4. Provides strategic intelligence for growth planning 5. Delivers measurable ROI within weeks

The question isn't whether CloudCRM Pro can transform your revenue engine - our 500+ enterprise customers have proven it can. The question is whether you want to be gaining this competitive advantage in Q2 or watching your competitors gain it.

What questions can I answer for you?"

Common Executive Questions & Answers:

Q: "How long until we see results?" A: "Customers typically see improved forecast accuracy within 30 days, productivity gains within 60 days, and revenue impact within 90 days."

Q: "What about change management?" A: "We include comprehensive change management. Plus, the UI is so intuitive that TechCorp achieved 95% adoption in 60 days without mandating usage."

Q: "How does this compare to Salesforce?" A: "Salesforce is a platform you build on. CloudCRM Pro is a solution that works on day one. 70% less TCO, 6x faster implementation, and AI included not extra."

Strong Close: "Based on what you've seen, what would prevent you from moving forward with a proof of concept to validate these results for your team?"

Script 2: SMB Champion Demo

Focus: Team productivity, pipeline management, practical tools
Duration: 30 minutes

Opening Hook (2 minutes)

Script: "Hi [Name], I know you're juggling a million things as a sales manager, so I'll keep this focused on what matters most to you: hitting your team's number with less stress and more predictability.

You mentioned three main challenges: 1. Spending too much time in spreadsheets instead of coaching 2. Reps not following the sales process consistently 3. Surprises in your pipeline that kill your forecast

Transition: "Now let me show you how CloudCRM Pro helps you be a better coach."

Screen: Coaching Intelligence
