Proof of Concept
In one hour, the fate of my job hangs in the balance. One of the two big deals that will save me (technically, I need both to close this week) closes tomorrow. In one hour, there will be no more selling. It's Proof of Concept time.
Essentially, they are going to test the product, and if it performs better than the competitor's product, then I win. If not, I lose. There's nothing more I can do at that point.
I'm rather proud of myself for even getting this far considering what I had to do to get to this point (that's another post). I should know by tomorrow morning whether or not it's going to happen.
My boss assigned homework for us to be completed by next Monday. This could mean that it seems as though I will still have a job, regardless. In the sales meeting yesterday, I appear to be #2 out of the lot of us, which is pathetic. Especially pathetic since the #1 guy has more sales than the other five combined. (Of course, it helps that he got one gigantic deal.)
Well, wish me luck.
