Today’s episode is brought to you by Walnut.

Why are we spending all this time on marketing… just to push buyers to a “Request a Demo” button? Even if they’re interested, no one wants to click that. No one wants to “talk to sales.” They just want to try the product for themselves!

Good news: now they can - with Walnut.

Walnut is the interactive demo platform for marketers who are done hiding their product and want to put it front and center.

You can build guided, self-serve demos in minutes. No engineers. No developers. No waiting. Embed them on your site. Drop them in emails. Let buyers explore your product on their terms - at any stage of the funnel.

And the best part? You get the data. See what features prospects are engaging with, where they drop off, and what’s actually driving pipeline.

500+ companies use Walnut - including Adobe and NetApp. Their teams save 400+ hours a year building demos… and have prevented over 1.5 million minutes of bad ones.

So if you want to drive more leads, shorten sales cycles, and actually show your product, go check out Walnut.io (and tell their team you heard about it on the Exit Five podcast!).
