You know what stalls deals?

Not a weak pitch — but talking to the wrong person, too late. In complex accounts, the people who actually influence buying decisions aren’t always listed as “decision‑makers.” Miss them, and you risk losing precious time… or the deal altogether.

The challenge:

Sales teams often navigate networks of buyers, influencers, gatekeepers, and blockers — spread across countries, regions, and business units. Context is scattered in CRMs, shared drives, and side conversations, making it hard to see the full picture in time.

The solution:

AI-powered stakeholder mapping in Mural brings clarity to your deal strategy. With interactive maps connected to LinkedIn and Mural AI, you can:

  • Spot the right players early: From economic buyers to operational champions
  • Build a better pitch: Tailor your conversation to the needs and concerns of each stakeholder
  • Prepare for pushback: Confidently navigate objections and rebuttals
