Sales playbook
Rules of engagement
Customer Promises pre-sales policy
Fleet's customer promises pre-sales policy (confidential) governs when and why we may make binding delivery commitments (Customer promises) to prospects during the pre-sales process. Customer promises are formal commitments to deliver specific capabilities by defined dates as a condition of purchase. They carry significant organizational weight and must be used judiciously to maintain Fleet's credibility and operational integrity.
Opportunity splits between AEs
If an opportunity is ~50% through the sales process, ownership of execution should be reassigned to maintain momentum, with a commission split and quota relief reflecting remaining work.
The originating AE retains credit for work completed; the covering AE earns commission and quota relief proportional to what's left (e.g., a deal at 75% → 25% split to the support AE).
Expansion ownership policy
If an AE has identified and started working multiple qualified opportunities in an account at the time the first one closes, i.e., the account becomes a customer, they retain ownership of those additional opportunities for up to 12 months from the close date of the first opportunity. After 12 months, any remaining open opportunities are either closed or transferred to the CSM.
Possible exceptions:
- In the event the CS team surfaces a real expansion opportunity in a part of the account far removed from the CSM's current customer contacts, that opportunity may be assigned to the original AE at the discretion of the CCO and/or SVP Sales.
