How to Nail Discovery with a 1-Minute Product Tour (NOT a Demo) | Bite-sized Tactics

In this video, you’ll learn: Why product tours work better than slide decks or full demos on call #1 How to use quick visual storytelling to spark curiosity When and how to pause, ask questions, and uncover new use cases How this approach leads to faster discovery and more stakeholders involved in deal #2 RESOURCES DISCUSSED: ⁠⁠Join our weekly newsletter⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Things you can steal⁠⁠ ⁠⁠Save $50 on any 30MPC course⁠⁠ with code “PODCAST” ⁠⁠Free Sales Templates, Scripts and Guides
