![]() Alan Armstrong, VP of Product Management, Fortiva, Inc
About the Webinar:
If there is a single tool that every PM must master, it is Win/Loss Analysis. No tool in your belt will tell you more about the market and give you more credibility with executives, developers, marketers, and best of all, customers. Yet so few perform this analysis correctly, if at all. Some people interview the sales reps and think that they got the story. Others read sales logs. Others simply ask the lost account "why did you not choose us?" These techniques are doomed, and this flawed data is the most dangerous kind because it gives the PM unwarranted confidence.
In this session, Alan Armstrong will provide a technique for Win/Loss Analysis that will help you uncover the hidden truths of your market by identifying objectives, designing and conducting the interviews, and reporting your results to senior management. These techniques will give a quick boost to in your professional credibility, and you'll be able to start practicing them immediately after the session. About the Presenter:
