Sales demos
Sales demo script notes that keep you on track
A good demo needs more than a product tour. GhostCue helps you keep the buyer problem, key proof points, and close in view while recording demos or walkthroughs on Mac.
Quick answer
Sales demo notes should keep the buyer problem, product path, objection cues, and next step visible while you record. GhostCue helps you avoid feature-by-feature wandering without forcing a generic sales script.
GhostCue is a hidden teleprompter for Mac screen recordings. See your notes while you record; keep them out of the final video.
The best demo points are easy to forget mid-flow
When you are switching between product screens, pricing context, and the customer story, it is easy to drift into feature-by-feature narration.
A compact demo outline keeps the recording tied to the prospect’s problem without turning the video into a stiff script.
When sales demo notes help most
Use hidden notes when a demo needs buyer context, structure, and a clear close while you still operate the product.
Best for
- Personalized async demos where you need to connect product moments to a buyer pain.
- Recorded product walkthroughs with objection reminders and proof points.
- Founder-led and sales-led videos where the final ask needs to be clear.
Watch out for
- Do not invent proof, customer claims, or outcomes in your script notes.
- Avoid turning the demo into a feature checklist with no buyer story.
- Keep objection cues short so they do not derail the flow.
Build sales demo notes around the buyer
- Open with the problem or desired outcome, not the menu structure.
- Add a cue for each feature only when it supports the story.
- Write down the exact next step you want to suggest.
- Keep common objection reminders visible but brief.
Examples
- Record a prospect-specific walkthrough with their pain point at the top of the note.
- Keep a pricing caveat and follow-up ask visible while showing the product.
- Use objection cues as reminders, not as canned answers that ignore the context.
