EverClean example

sales:call-prep

Meeting: Showroom visit — Stonehaven Kitchen Design
Date/time: Monday July 14, 2:30pm
Duration: 45 minutes

Attendees:
- Patricia Ogilvie, Owner/Principal Designer, Stonehaven Kitchen Design 
  (18 years in luxury kitchen design, Instagram following of 42k, 
  known for open-plan Scandinavian-influenced kitchens)
- Brendan Stonehaven, Co-owner (handles purchasing and trade accounts)

Account context: Stonehaven is a mid-size luxury kitchen design firm in 
  Scottsdale, AZ. They spec and sell appliances direct to clients as part 
  of full kitchen packages. Average project value $180k–$350k. 
  They currently spec Miele and Fisher & Paykel exclusively.

Our goal: Get EverClean added to their approved vendor list and discuss 
  a trade account with preferred pricing on 3+ unit orders.

Product: EverClean — double-wide luxury dishwasher, $3,500–$5,000 MSRP, 
  eliminates overhead cupboards, strong visual statement piece in open-plan kitchens.

Previous contact: Sent spec sheet 11 days ago, no response.

What you’ll get: A one-page call brief — what Patricia likely cares about (design differentiation, client wow factor, Instagram-worthy kitchens), what Brendan cares about (margin, reliability, warranty support), 4–5 discovery questions to ask, the one objection most likely to come up (Miele loyalty), and a suggested 45-minute agenda.

Useful follow-up prompts

  • “What would be the strongest single thing to say to Patricia in the first 2 minutes to make EverClean feel like a design opportunity rather than an appliance pitch?”
  • “Brendan is likely to ask about warranty and service — what’s a strong answer given we’re a startup with limited service network?”
  • “Draft a one-sentence leave-behind tagline for EverClean aimed at kitchen designers.”
