How IT services selling works from Bengaluru
The buyer is usually somewhere else, awake at another hour
Most Bengaluru services firms sell to clients in North America, Europe or Australia. That means discovery calls late in the Indian evening, proposal reviews that move one step per week, and a buying group rather than a buyer: a technical evaluator, a delivery sponsor, a procurement contact and someone who owns the budget. Each has a different question and a different reason to delay.
You are selling capacity, not stock
A product company that wins a deal ships a licence. A services company that wins a deal has to staff it. That single difference is why services pipelines need to sit next to availability, and why an over-optimistic close date creates a delivery problem rather than only a forecasting one.
