Goal

Create a living, sourceable account plan that explains the account, the opportunity, the people, and the best next move.

What Nex will do

1. Resolve the target account, scope, owner, opportunity, and existing relationship history. 2. Research current priorities, initiatives, performance, hiring, tools, risks, and credible triggers. 3. Map the likely buying committee, relationship coverage, stance, influence, and missing roles. 4. Connect the evidence to relevant pain, outcomes, proof, objections, and opportunity areas. 5. Build the account plan with a prioritized engagement sequence and explicit next actions.
