Any suggestions for demo to high profile client.

Congrats!

A few quick tips demo wise:

• If your product gives clients the ability to change branding then use the clients logo / branding for the demo - people place a greater value on things once they have established ownership
• Same with data, if you need to mock up data for a demo try and get some real life looking demo data from their website. Even if it's just titles and images.
• Make sure you understand what they want to see from the demo and have a basic demo script which covers all the areas
• Based on what they want to see, try and think of any awkward questions they may asked and answers to them
• Have this script / playbook / list written down that you can tick off so you don't miss anything
• If you product can't do something they require don't just say "no" or "it can't do that" and move on. This is a great time to find out what the actual issue / requirement is
• Be ready to go off piste when questions are asked then just jump back to your playbook
• Go SLOW (this goes for talking as well). Screens shares don't update as fast as your monitor
• Practise on whatever platform you are going to use to demo (I'm guessing screen-share via Google Meet / Teams / Zoom)
• Relax - try to treat it like you are showing a friend your product, if you are relaxed you will come across more confident
• Let people ask questions as you go and let them know this before you start - you can always defer some questions until after the presentation (You should write the question down and bring it up)
• Try and get feedback or a follow up meeting straight away - there response will also help gauge how the demo went

I've done far too many client demos at old jobs, there are a ton more tips I can't think of right now. I'll edit this if I think of any more.
