| 0:00.0 | Imagine this. Imagine selling services into the sea suite with a little brand |
| 0:07.4 | recognition, pretty much on your own, very little or no inbound, and you |
| 0:15.6 | require a lot of conversations, a lot of discussions, a lot of selling, and |
| 0:21.6 | you're selling services. So there's nothing like Egon Demo. It doesn't have the |
| 0:27.9 | typical simple sale process even from the customer standpoint. Their point of |
