Sales deals stall and fall through between verbal agreement and actual payment

Sellers frequently lose deals in the gap after a prospect verbally agrees but before payment is actually collected, due to friction in following up, invoicing, and closing the loop. This deal-to-cash gap is a recurring structural issue in sales and billing workflows, in an already competitive proposal-to-payment tooling market.

This reflects a broader challenge in B2B marketing: identifying and reaching the specific person who drives a purchase decision.
