## Claim
At some point in almost every SaaS company, the request appears: "𝘞𝘦 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘣𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘺 𝘮𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘢 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘵 𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘰..." And it's a reasonable ask! Product videos are a classic part of the B2B GTM toolkit. Sales teams naturally want something they can send after a call or share with prospects who are still evaluating.

## Mechanism
Visitors explore the product flow themselves, learning by doing, and follow the paths that match their role or use case.

## Conditions
Holds when: the operating context matches the post's stated frame (team shape, stage, tooling, buyer type).
Fails when: the practice is lifted into a different stage or buyer context without reworking the underlying mechanism.

## Evidence
> "And it’s a reasonable ask! Product videos are a classic part of the B2B GTM toolkit. Sales teams naturally want something they can send after a call or share with prospects who are still evaluating."
