What is Consensus?
Consensus is an Intelligent Demo Automation Platform built to enable buyers by scaling presales with interactive video demos. Presales and technical sales teams automate repetitive product demos which allows them to reallocate that time to higher value activities. Buyers get a tailored demo — one that guides them with digital, interactive and on-demand video demos. This in turn helps sellers uncover additional stakeholders and eliminates unqualified demos, which in turn brings both sides to the table ready to talk specifics when live calls occur.
Consensus Intelligent Demo Automation is a platform built to shorten the sales cyle by focusing on enabling the buyer with demo content they want by scaling presales. Sales reps send presales-created content on demand from demo libraries and leverage analytics to align buyer stakeholders based on persona priorities and specific value propositions. Elements of this platform include: Interactive Video Demos: Videos recorded by SEs and SCs that are uploaded into Consensus. Sales reps share demos from integrations or Chrome extensions and buyers personalize their experience by ranking features based on relevance and eliminting unwanted noise. Interactive Product Tours: Consensus allows reps to create tours that allow buyers to click through the most important parts of the solution and receive additional information via text guides and video explainers. Demolytics: Analytics that provide insights into buyer intent and stakeholder engagement with heat maps and persona-level view data.

10/10 sales tool
Our company relies heavily on the use of Consensus for presales and throughout the sales process. It's great for sending demos, speeding up close times, getting visibility on key stakeholders and interests and also helps reduce the number of live demos required. I also use it for recording 'how to' situations, going through proposals or just intro calls to customers. It's a great all rounder that really supports the sales team at their own pace.

Consensus was already in place when I joined the Access Group. However, the business needed a centralized platform to store and share video content with prospects.
Consensus was a great fit as it allows us to do this quickly and effectively via their Chrome and Outlook extension and also integrations into our CRM system.

We use Consensus to help us engage with our customers more when sharing content.
It's so much better to be able to see how our customers have interacted with our content, and when. This way we can react more appropriately.
Overall, the difference in our interactions with our customers now has increased tenfold.

Consensus helps us close faster and avoid repetitive conversations
Our software solution is more technical than most, and has specific value across a multitude of verticals. It’s difficult to communicate the technical nuances that benefit certain industries. Our engineers are on high demand, and instead of having them take time to highlight the value of our solution each time we engage them with a prospect, we’re able to share the Consensus videos prior to their engagement and cover the “50,000 ft overview” via the short videos and find more value in technical discovery as it pertains to a specific use case. It has helped us expedite the sales process and enables our prospects to learn about our solution at their convenience. There are also stats that speak to viewings, sharing of videos, and allows the prospects to select what areas of the solution are most important to them for additional insights. Very powerful tool for our sales and sales engineering departments.
