The two questions that decide the motion. Ask both on the first call: "Who else needs to be comfortable before you'd roll this out?" and "Does anyone in compliance, risk or IT sign off tools that publish under the firm's name?" "Nobody, it's my call" plus "no" means the direct motion (1 to about 10 seats; planning estimate 7 to 21 days). Anything else is the considered motion (10 plus seats or any sign-off; planning estimate 30 to 90 days, law 3 to 6 months). Neither is measured yet. See Sales method.
