A core issue we identified was that the team was often spending a lot of time creating custom demos, guides, or walkthroughs for unqualified prospects.

Ultimately, this led to a lot of wasted time, a huge amount of burden and effort for already busy staff, and a diffusion of focus on targeting the right prospects.

Prior to Supademo, we were spending countless hours putting together demos and videos across discovery, qualification, training, or simply answering common questions. Creating these could take upwards of 8-10 hours, which is both painful for us, but also less engaging for prospects.

One of my pain points was how time-consuming it was to create product demos for both demonstrations and trade shows manually. The ability to create a Supademo in minutes and the ability to showcase these at conferences has saved us an incredible amount of time!
