Take Surveys: Gather Baselines

Compiling results from 20 to 50 participants using excel sheets/hand outs can be painful.

If you expect many responses use a survey tool instead.

When To Demo SharePoint When you need help scoping requirements and

managing expectations. When you need help building awareness. When validating requirements and solution approaches. When you want to get people excited!

When Not To Demo SharePoint When you haven’t identified any of the audiences needs. When you aren’t familiar with the tool/feature set being

demonstrated.
