Quick video on how to use the mutual action plan here:

A mutual action plan allows you to give a clear direction of travel, clear responsibilities and clear deadlines. They can be used for tonnes of use cases but the most popular are:

A sales cycle plan - Laying out what needs to be done between you and the prospect to get the deal over the line; from demos, to pricing, to data security and getting the agreement signed: It gives the buyer a clear pathway to help get the deal done, and quicker. See an example of one here.

An onboarding plan - You know the drill? Lots of emails, google sheets, training sessions, uploading settings and inviting team members, to name a few facets of onboarding new clients. Create your onboarding mutual action plan to keep everyone on track. See an example of one here.
