The building decides what you can sell
A telecom sales day is an office park at ten, a manufacturing unit in an industrial estate at one, and a building manager who only appears after four. What matters is not the pitch. It is whether a duct route exists, whether the riser is accessible, and who has the authority to allow work in the building.
Promises made before feasibility are expensive
An order signed on the assumption that a site is serviceable, then withdrawn after a survey, costs more than the deal was worth. Capturing entry route, riser access and terrace conditions at the first visit, with photographs, means the proposal describes what can actually be delivered.
The contract end date is the opening
Enterprise connectivity rarely changes mid contract. It changes at renewal. Asking the existing provider and the contract end date on the first visit, and writing it on the account, converts a building full of polite refusals into a dated list worth returning to.
