Hey guys, I could use some advice here...
I am an AE in an SMB/MM segment, and our software is in the Learning Management Software space (LMS).
The software makes most sense for those in MM to Enterprise space.
Being in the SMB/MM segment and not having our pricing published, means we get a LOT of tire kickers and unqualified people through the doors.
The majority of my leads are people who when asked about budget "don't know" and are "just collecting quotes".
This is fine and all, but the problem is management has made it very clear not to give any pricing (including ballpark pricing/starting pricing) at all until AFTER a demo.
So even though I want to DQ them early, I can't.
So I guess I am looking for some advice on how to get budget out of people who "don't know" (or won't give it up), or other tactic that can help me properly qualify/disqualify them so I don't waste time going through a demo and multiple follow ups only to get ghosted because we are way out of range.
