What is inside
Clear rules for when a deal is demo-ready
Running a demo without clear entry and exit criteria is like starting a race without knowing where the finish line is.
This guide shows you how to define when a deal is truly ready for a demo — and what a successful demo needs to achieve before you move forward.
This guide helps you:
Define entry criteria every demo request has to fulfil
Agree exit criteria with your AE before the call
Push back on unqualified demo requests without friction
Spend your demo time on the deals that deserve it
Why this resource exists
Qualification from a solution engineering perspective
Most SE teams are the bottleneck not because they demo badly, but because they demo too often and too early.
Simple, written quality gates are the fastest way to protect your calendar and raise the quality of every demo you deliver.
