🕸️ One contact is not a deal. It's a single point of failure.
If your whole opportunity rests on one person, it takes one job change, one reorg, one quiet week to stall completely.
Build width early: Map the room — who else touches this decision? Budget, users, influencers. Add 3–5 people from the account to your list, not just your main contact. Enter through relevance — reference the work, not "your colleague mentioned you." Keep an eye on movement — when someone new joins the team, meet them early.
Deals that survive surprises are the ones with more than one thread.
