    What does each step mean?

    1. Notice the product is the first moment a person could name you.
    2. Compare options is where they look at alternatives. Write the real alternatives in the label if you know them.
    3. Place a first order and Use it for a week are separate. Buying and succeeding are not the same stage.
    4. Ask for help is the last stage in this sample. Add a renewal stage if the relationship continues.
