Which of the following best lists the Sales Objectives in Stage 5?

• A. Engage with TSS to complete Contract Entry; Review Implementation Timeframe with Client; Prepare Client for CSS expectations; Complete FI Calls; Conduct Post Contract Entry Sales Touch
• B. Engage with TSS to complete Contract Entry; Review Implementation Timeframe with Client
• C. Prepare Client for CSS expectations; Complete FI Calls; Conduct Post Contract Entry Sales Touch
• D. Complete WSE upload and submit to TSS; Complete I-9 forms within 3 days of Live Date

Answer: (A)

Stage 5 focuses on closing activities and setting up a smooth transition to ongoing success. The best answer includes coordinating with the internal TSS to finalize Contract Entry, reviewing the implementation timeframe with the client to align on milestones, preparing the client for CSS expectations so they know how ongoing support will work, completing FI calls to cover financial/billing aspects, and conducting a post-contract-entry sales touch to maintain engagement and explore next steps. This combination covers both finalizing the deal and continuing relationship-building, which is exactly what Stage 5 aims to achieve. Other options miss one or more essential elements (such as contract entry, client-facing timing, or post-signature touch) or include tasks that belong to onboarding or administrative processes rather than the sales-focused objectives of Stage 5.
