Meenal, leveraging her extensive experience in both presenting and attending EBRs, imparts wisdom on key components of an impactful EBR session.
Key topics include:

• Optimal EBR frequency based on customer profiles
• Distinctive attributes of EBRs versus QBRs
• Specific success indicators and metrics for EBRs
• The role of online questionnaires in EBR prep
• Aligning internal stakeholders on agenda and timeline
