Frequently Asked Questions
How many discovery sessions should I plan?+
Typically 3-5 sessions across different stakeholder groups. One session with business sponsors, one with end users, one with IT/Security, and one with procurement. Large deals may need additional sessions for specific departments.
What if the customer cannot articulate their requirements?+
Bring examples. Show them your product and ask "Does this solve your problem? What is missing?" Working from a concrete demo is faster than asking open-ended questions. Consider using the [customer interview template](/templates/customer-interview-template) to structure your discovery conversations.
How do I handle requirements that are not on our roadmap?+
Be honest. Say "This is not on our current roadmap. Here is what we do today, and here is what we are considering for [timeframe]." Never make roadmap promises to close a deal unless PM and engineering have signed off.
Should I share this document with the customer?+
Share a cleaned version that shows their requirements, your current status, and your remediation plan. Do not share internal deal decisions, gap analysis commentary, or roadmap commitments that have not been approved. ---
