One pitch for a CFO, a CIO and a user

The same deck for everyone

The CFO wants payback, IT wants low risk, users want less work. They all get the same slides.

Not in their language

Finance, IT, operations. Each has its own words and metrics, and yours are not theirs.

No clear ask

The meeting ends on a good talk and no request. The person leaves without a role in the deal.

Your core message, adapted to each person

Cobl starts from your messaging and your proof. It reads what each person said in calls and emails, and their role in the deal. Then it writes the argument, the proof, the likely objection and the ask for each one.

What each person cares about

Goals, criteria and past objections, taken from what they said, with the email or call.

The argument that fits

The benefit, proof and words that match the role: payback for finance, risk for IT.

One clear ask each

A meeting, an intro, a data point or a sign-off. One request per person to move the deal.

Questions about this use case

What is sales messaging?

Sales messaging is what your team says about the problem you solve, the value you bring and the proof behind it. It is the base for pitches, emails, call scripts and decks. Good messaging is written for a specific audience, not for everyone. In a B2B deal, that means adapting it to each person who has a say.

What is a sales messaging framework?

A sales messaging framework is a reference document that keeps the team consistent. It usually holds the core message, the value for each persona, the proof points, the main objections and their answers. Teams use it as the source for emails, decks and talk tracks.

How do you adapt your message for a CFO vs a CIO?

A CFO looks at cost, payback and financial risk, so lead with numbers and the business case. A CIO looks at security, integration and the load on their team, so lead with fit and risk control. The core message stays the same. The argument, the proof and the ask change. Cobl prepares this per person from what they said in your calls and emails.

What is the difference between a value proposition and sales messaging?

The value proposition is the promise: what changes for the buyer and why it matters. Sales messaging is how you say it to a given person: the words, the argument, the proof and the request. One value proposition can lead to several messages, one per role in the buying committee.
