objections
- objection: Changing CRM is disruptive and we lack an administrator.response: Evaluate the managed rollout, which includes setups, migrations and data imports, against the scope of your existing configuration.
- objection: Autonomous outreach and deal updates could make mistakes.response: Pilot a limited workflow with human review and measure data quality before expanding automation.
- objection: Another AI tool will add costs and duplicate our stack.response: Compare the seat cost and included credits with the tools and manual work a pilot can actually replace.
