I keep a swipe file of everything that gets approved by legal to short cut the system.

Contracting and dealing with legal over things that are 99.9% not going to happen anyway. So so frustrating

Our software has a right to win in so many verticals - our target customer is a vast list.
Drilling down on the "perfect" fit takes time, and considering we tend to really only complete with established internal systems, driving home the benefits of a switch take even longer and a lot of legacy folks who built those systems (despite not being time or cost efficient) are hesitant to let their old projects go.
Newer companies embrace us with open arms however.

Ah, okay. That's good to know. So closing or rather rev generation is time consuming?

Security/IT! I sell software and the longest it took was 18 days for IT to approve the vendor.
Legal is also very tedious, hate reading contracts and redlines.
