Sales Handover
On Friday the account belongs to the rep who made every promise in it. On Monday it belongs to a CSM working from a summary. This skill turns closed-won deal state into the customer's starting state without the loss: goals, commitments, stakeholders, pricing context and known risks, mapped through an owned handover schema and your Products, Persona, Pricing, Customer Outcomes, Onboarding and Escalations memories. The rep vouches for each commitment before it carries, the CSM starts onboarding from what was actually sold and promised, and when churn later traces back to a handover gap, the handover requirements change, and the new requirement carries a version number.

The deal becomes a customer
What sales learned is worth most in the weeks right after close. That is also when most of it disappears.

A deal closes and the account moves to a CSM
Whatever the rep remembers
The rep writes the handover from memory between other deals. The call runs half an hour, and a promise from month two rarely makes it in.
Eight months compressed to highlights
A generated summary keeps the loudest threads and drops quiet commitments, because nothing tells it what a complete handover must contain.
The account arrives with its promises
The CSM receives goals, stakeholders, commitments, pricing context and risks in one structure, each confirmed by the rep before it carries.
The kickoff call is on the calendar for Thursday
Onboarding opens with re-discovery
The CSM asks the customer to restate goals sales already captured. Stakeholders repeat themselves; the relationship opens with an apology.
The kickoff inherits a paragraph
A summary cannot say which success criteria won the deal or which risk needs watching first, so the plan gets rebuilt by asking again.
Onboarding plans against known goals
The CSM runs the kickoff from success criteria, stakeholders and risks mapped to your Onboarding memory. The first call looks forward.

An advantage competitors cannot buy back: years of success and failure, codified.
The commitments made, the goals the customer bought against, the stakeholders and their roles, the pricing context and the known risks. Here the handover schema makes that list explicit: every field filled with evidence or named as a gap, and commitments carry only once the rep has confirmed them.
By mapping it into the record customer success runs on, at close. Everything the deal established becomes the customer's starting state through your Products, Persona, Pricing, Customer Outcomes, Onboarding and Escalations memories, with the rep confirming commitments and sensitive context first.
It guards a later boundary than Meeting Booked Analysis, which carries prospecting context into sales when a meeting books. By close the stakes have grown: months of commitments, stakeholders and pricing history must become a customer record, and whatever drops surfaces as next year's churn story.
Onboarding and churn outcomes teach it. When Churn Analysis traces a loss back to a promise that never crossed the boundary, the handover schema gains a requirement, approved by the sales and CS leads who own it, and every later handover checks for what that one missed.
Commitments and anything sensitive. The rep signs off what was promised before any of it enters the customer's record, the onboarding and escalation standards it maps to belong to the CS lead, and it is the CSM who opens and words every conversation with the new customer.
