For the higher level tiers absolutely, for a trial just take my credit card and get out of my way.
I’ll call you when I want to upgrade my plan. You aren’t “selling” me anything. The product sold itself. At that point let’s have a steak dinner and figure out the details.
- wheels 6y agoIn a lot of those cases, the company has decided that the lower tiers do not exist, because they lose money, and part of the point of the sales process is to weed them out. (And even if they do have lower tiers, they don't want to hurt their actually profitable higher tiers by providing price anchoring.)

And just because you can evaluate that complex product by yourself doesn't mean that happens for everyone else. Selling, by the way, is not just demo'ing the product. It's also navigating legal, finance, security, end users who don't know as much as you do, etc. As a buyer, it's sometimes easier to have your rep help you identify what the quickest path is. Lets me move faster, anyway.
