Step 2
Publish & Review
Publish the templates to your Spekit instance and review the layout to ensure a polished buyer experience.
Step 3
Enable Rep Customization
Ensure these are saved as TEMPLATES. This allows reps to easily inherit the structure while customizing details for their specific buyers.
Make sure to set it as a TEMPLATE not just CONTENT and test the creation flow.
Driving Team Adoption
Reps adopt tools when they see immediate value and low friction. Providing ready-to-use templates and hosting team-by-team office hours after rollout ensures a smooth transition.
Encourage reps to add internal collaborators (like SEs, CSMs, or managers) to their active Deal Rooms to foster seamless team collaboration and peer-to-peer learning.
