Deal Review Framework Skill

When to Use

• Preparing for forecast calls or executive deal reviews.
• Coaching reps on qualification, mutual action plans, or competitive positioning.
• Validating whether key deals deserve exec/CS/partner resources.

Framework

1. Qualification Pulse – confirm MEDDIC/BANT elements, economic buyer access, and champion strength.
2. Stakeholder Map – document buying committee roles, influencers, and gaps.
3. Mutual Action Plan – outline critical path milestones, owners, and risk mitigations.
4. Competitive/Value Story – identify differentiators, landmines, and proof required.
5. Next Actions – lock committed next steps, deadlines, and owners directly in CRM.

Templates

• Deal review worksheet (qualification, risks, next steps).
• Mutual action plan table with milestones and RACI.
• Competitive battlecard snippet for in-call reference.

Tips

• Capture notes directly in CRM to keep pipeline data aligned with conversations.
• Invite cross-functional partners (SE, CS, exec sponsor) when blockers require their involvement.
• Pair with forecast-discipline to ensure inspection outcomes feed into commit grading.
