Key Takeaway
The first consultation does not require a complete customer database and no need to provide an account password. The most useful information is what the company does, what kind of customers they want to develop, where the main markets are, how many people are prepared to use, and the current questions that most impact efficiency. Consultants can only understand these backgrounds and give targeted explanations about the application program and use preparation.
Context & Preparation
When introducing the product, don’t just write a broad industry. For example, “Mechanics” can further describe whether equipment is complete, spare parts or processing services; “Consumer goods” can be described as a brand, retail channel or distributor. The same product enters different business models, the target company’s method of finding and purchasing roles may be completely different, so the type of customer also needs to be clearly written.

Action Steps
In terms of the account, it is possible to explain whether there is already a LinkedIn account, whether you have used a paid subscription, and whether you are currently able to access it normally. If you encounter an abnormality, it is possible to describe the platform tips and the actions taken. Do not fill in the login or verification code in the public form. The steps required to be verified by yourself, should be completed by yourself in the formal process, not by sharing login information instead of standard communication.
What to Measure
When team purchases, organize the number of planned use, internal managers and purchase cycles. It can be supplemented whether it requires contracts, bills and unified training, but no need to submit irrelevant internal documents from the beginning. For that have not yet been determined, discussing what conditions the first group of testers should have is more decisive than asking how many accounts can be offered.
Review & Improve
Describe the problem as specific as possible. For example, "We can find the target company but uncertainty of buying and engineering who is responsible for evaluating new suppliers" is easier to discuss than "development has no effect". If there are one or two open target companies, the link to the website can be attached as a sample; Do not send non-published chat records, offers or business details of customers to prove the problem.
Practical Exercise
After consultation, a clear written scheme should be obtained to verify the version, cycle, seats, fees and arrangements for more than 40 courses. There will be still unclear questions focused on answering, reducing the information spread across multiple chat windows. Before the purchase is completed, confirming the actual delivery consists of your proposed requirements, and further learning continues around this demand list.
