Endgame is all about letting you ask any question you have about an account or person in your book of business. Reminder: for now, you have to chat with a specific account.

Tips and tricks

Ask follow-up questions

Think of the thread as a journey that allows you to continue exploration based on nuggets of insight that you see or areas you want to dig deeper into.

Start with the desired output in mind

Knowing what you want as the final output helps clarify your approach to questions. Tell Endgame what that output is when you ask your questions.

Use multiple perspectives

Use different perspectives to evaluate from angles that you’re not used to as a way to uncover missing insights. For example, start a question with “as a VP sales” or “as the economic buyer” or as “the prospect’s CFO”.

Ask for feedback/grading

Whether you’re reviewing a recent meeting, analyzing a deal, or building a proposal, asking AI to grade the object and suggest how it could be better can lead to many new insights and ideas.

Ask for quotes

Asking for quotes (“include quotes”) is super helpful for capturing the language of the customer and focusing in on key topics with far more precision.

Ask for options

There’s often not a single best answer. Asking Endgame for multiple options (“give me 3 options for how to…”) can yield richer surface area from which to ideate and take action.
