The Closing Room: Why Your Best-Feeling Deals Are Your Riskiest
AI can surface the signals. It can’t tell you which deals are real.
The deals most likely to slip aren’t the ugly ones. They’re the opportunities your sellers feel great about: the relationship is strong, the buyer loves the solution, and the champion is taking it upstairs, but enthusiasm without action fills a forecast right up until the day it doesn’t.
In this session, Colleen Francis, President of Engage Selling and creator of The Closing Room, shows how experienced managers separate pipeline reality from wishful thinking. AI can only reason from what sellers put into the CRM, but the real story often lives in what’s missing; the stakeholder who never engaged or the question that never got answered. Knowing how to spot those gaps is a human skill, and it can be learned.
Colleen will work through real deals the way she does inside The Closing Room, where every opportunity gets a decision: accelerate it, de-risk it, or walk away.
You’ll walk away with:
- A practical “feeling vs. fact” framework for pressure-testing deal confidence.
- Real deals worked live. Not theory, not slideware.
- The questions managers can use to surface deal risk and coach the moves that matter most.
- A way to ground deal status in buyer behavior instead of seller optimism, so end-of-quarter surprises stop.
