Highlighted the cost and limitations of generic subscription tools
2. Finance, Accounting, and Risk:
Addressed reporting gaps, control issues, and rigid legacy systems
Positioned modern custom systems as a replacement for outdated setups
3. Founders and Senior Leadership:
Framed the conversation around business outcomes
Focused on efficiency, scalability, and long-term cost control

Most importantly, the outreach validated a core truth for the client: real estate developers were actively looking for better systems, but only when the conversation reflected their reality.
