### Sales Strategy & Channel Enablement
- Partner with GPLs GPS, and GPMs to identify pipeline opportunities that can be accelerated through the Pre-Buy motion — operating as a strategic sales partner, not a processor

- Serve as the first escalation point for field issues — mis-bookings, policy gray areas, comp disputes — resolving or packaging for leadership with a clear recommendation

### Cross-Functional Orchestration & Governance
- Coordinate across Deal Desk, Revenue Operations, Finance, Legal, and Comp to drive clean approvals and maintain a single source of truth for all Pre-Buy and LOI decisions Own LOI governance: interpret contract language, translate into booking and comp guidance, and prevent LOI actions from triggering unintended downsell or GRR distortion
