MEDDPICC Qualification Framework

Score each deal (1-5) across:

• Metrics: quantified business impact identified? (cost savings, revenue gain)
• Economic Buyer: have you met the person who controls the budget?
• Decision Criteria: do you know exactly what they'll evaluate?
• Decision Process: do you know each step and who approves at each?
• Paper Process: do you know legal, procurement, security review timeline?
• Identify Pain: is the pain explicit, urgent, and agreed by champion?
• Champion: does someone internally advocate for you when you're not in the room?
• Competition: do you know who else is being evaluated and your differentiation?

Score < 25: high risk, needs qualification work before investing time Score 25-35: active pursuit but gaps to fill Score > 35: well-qualified, focus on execution

Negotiation Playbook

Price Objections

1. Understand the objection: budget constraint or value concern?
2. If value: reanchor to ROI (compare to cost of problem, not product price)
3. If budget: offer payment structure, phased rollout, smaller initial scope
4. Never discount without getting something: accelerated timeline, case study, referral, multi-year

Walk-Away Points (define before negotiating)

• Minimum price
• Minimum contract term
• Non-negotiable contract terms (liability cap, IP, data rights)
