Customer Change Canvas
What's holding your buyers back?
Being "better" isn't enough. The Customer Change Canvas maps the four forces that shape every buying decision, helping you reveal what pushes them forward and what keeps them stuck.
Grab it to see what your CRM doesn't and build messaging, sales, and onboarding that responds to how real people make choices.

How to invoke and initiate change?
Behind every customer decision is a tug-of-war.
Some forces drive action, for example frustration with the status quo or excitement about a better future. Others hold them back, like comfort in old habits or fear that switching might backfire.
The Customer Change Canvas helps you surface these forces in real customer conversations. So you can reduce friction, build confidence, and guide them toward real progress.
