How to seal the deal
The document contains tips for sealing Plone deals with potential clients at the Plone Conference 2010. It advises demonstrating Plone's capabilities through a prepared, tested local demo including sample content. The presenter should establish trust and credibility by listening, asking questions, being clear and concise, and building a relationship rather than using jargon or badmouthing other technologies. The demo should illustrate how Plone can save clients time and money while improving quality, and show real world examples through a relatable story and photos. Being prepared is key to making a strong, positive impression.
