[Clozd helps us with] understanding the difference between what we think buyers see from our sales efforts and product and what buyers (and those who don't choose you) actually think is critical. Clozd provides this by giving us two things: 1. an impartial 3rd party to talk to the client and get honest feedback 2. a portal to see how all the insights from these customer conversations tell a story about what we offer in the market. We make critical business decisions based on this feedback.”

Clozd is a great analysis tool focused on a specific type of feedback - deals won/lost and associated customer feedback. I love that focus, and it allows the tool to be way more useful (vs. bundling too many things into one platform and diluting the true value/use case).”

They are performing regular Win/Loss interviews and analysis for complex professional software products and services to inform our Go-To-Market and In-market strategies… We were pleased to find hidden gems in the content of the interview transcripts that enabled us to source testimonials, social proof, and deeper case studies for our Advocacy program.

[I like] the categorization that Clozd helps to employ - it allows us to group a ton of deal feedback into actionable areas for prioritization. These are not blanket "costs are too high" categories, either - they are more specific than that.”

I like the summary of key features/benefits that helped us to win/lose a deal. The way [Clozd] categorizes information and pays attention to normalizing the experience has been good as a way to filter responses. Additionally, the interviewers are adept at 'following the clues' during a conversation -- this is not always a strong competency of 'in-house' interviewers. Clozd has hired and trained their staff really well on this dimension.”

Clozd has been quite transformational. I think it is a true statement that we had many assumptions about why we win and why we lose, and that a good many of those assumptions have been definitively proven to be false. We have made product packaging changes, pricing changes, GTM messaging changes, positioning changes, and churn reduction changes. Anecdotally, we are sporting a 50%+ win rate, up from the 30% range in the pre-Clozd era."

Win-loss analysis should be a key source of insights into how potential customers see your product on its own and vs key competitors. In practice, this knowledge is elusive, hard to access, analyze and draw conclusions - often due to its qualitative nature. Clozd turns this into a process that makes capturing and analyzing insights a structured practice, making it easy to draw conclusions.”

If you are trying to do win-loss analysis 'in-house', consider getting a 3rd party like Clozd to achieve an objective set of results. We have often found this to be true because when you take out the feelings/emotions that an 'in-house' analysis will undoubtedly surface (from product, marketing, sales, etc.), you will get actionable feedback from prospects and customers alike. This result is harder to come by doing this 'in-house' when you are potentially 'leading the reviewer' in a particular way to make things look/feel better.”

We needed insights into what works and what doesn't for pipeline opportunities. It seems easier for prospects to give feedback to someone uninvolved in the process than to an internal representative. We are now able to see honest feedback, reasons for wins and losses, and these insights inform improvements.”
