Where you are
You will present a campaign dashboard to three client managers. Coworking internet has failed, and the only backup is a colleague’s hotspot.
Escenario 18 · Rol B
quien presenta al cliente
The client needs a live decision even if the full demo cannot run
Esta ficha es solo tuya. La otra persona tiene objetivos y datos distintos. No intercambien pantallas hasta terminar.
Focused and adaptable. The client joins in twenty minutes. You start. About 10 turns · 8 minutes.
Your screen only. Don't show it. Identify the interaction the client needs, reduce data-heavy features and keep postponed work explicit.
Tu información
Lo que sabes y lo que necesitas
You want
You want the client to review two budget options and choose one, even if video and file upload cannot happen today.
You can't
- Replace the interactive decision with an emailed promise to follow up.
- Upload the 1.6 GB campaign archive through the hotspot.
- Describe a static screenshot as a live dashboard.
Only you know
- The client decision needs audio, chat and one live dashboard refresh; cameras are optional.
- Offline slides and both budget tables are already saved on the laptop.
- A phone audio fallback can continue if the laptop reaches its data cap.
If you finish with nothing
The campaign launch loses a day because the client cannot compare and choose the two budget options.

Cuándo terminar
Closing criterion
Close with a partial presentation plan when both people record:
- Verified balance: 1.2 GB.
- Protected reserve: 300 MB.
- Laptop cap: 900 MB and internal switch warning.
- One connected laptop and cameras off.
- Offline slides, budget tables and one live refresh.
- Phone-audio fallback.
- Client A/B decision and written record.
- Archive upload and full video deferred until stable internet.
Success: You preserve the client’s A/B decision using offline content, one refresh, camera-off mode and phone fallback. You defer the archive and full video without presenting screenshots as live data.

- ¿Qué cambió al verificar que quedaban 1,2 GB y no 2 GB?
- ¿Qué funciones eran esenciales para la decisión y cuáles solo mejoraban la presentación?
- ¿Cómo impidió el límite técnico consumir la reserva personal?
- Resuman lo que el cliente sí hará hoy y lo que queda aplazado.
