Guest: Peter Cohan, Author of “Great Demo!”
Have you ever walked into a software demo, hoping to learn something new, only to sit through a “Harbor Tour” of irrelevant features?
You’re not alone – and neither are your prospects.
Peter Cohan, author of Great Demo!, joined us on the SaaS Backwards Podcast to unpack the biggest demo mistakes SaaS teams make:
❌ Starting with the how instead of the why
❌ Overloading prospects with unnecessary features
❌ Failing to tailor demos to decision-makers
His solution? Flip your demos upside down. Start with the results your prospects crave, not the laundry list of features.
Peter also shared:
✅ How to identify wasted demos (hint: 30% of them are)
✅ Why "vision generation demos" are the key to nurturing leads
✅ The metrics that show if your demos are working
