• Vendor fatigue contrasted with desire for useful innovation
• Common pitch mistakes and the single validation slide
• Lead with what the product does and where it fits
• Differentiation tied to concrete outcomes and costs
• Shifting from discovery to internal selling mechanics
• Building a three-slide CFO case with credible ROI
• Budget thresholds, approvals, and tool consolidation
