The 6 Questions That Fix Most CPQ Shortlists (Before You Watch Another Demo) show art The 6 Questions That Fix Most CPQ Shortlists (Before You Watch Another Demo)

CPQ Podcast

It’s a solo episode this week — interview scheduling has been unusually tough this year, so I’m using the opportunity to talk about something that’s top of mind for many teams early in the year: CPQ selection. In this episode, I share the six questions that fix most CPQ shortlists before demos start: business model, biggest challenge, CRM fit, ERP fit, go-live speed, and company complexity. The goal isn’t to rank vendors — it’s to get to a realistic shortlist faster, using a repeatable framework grounded in high-quality briefing research. I also tease a new way I’m building to...

In this episode of the CPQ Podcast, Frank Sohn speaks with Parag Jagdale, Co-Founder and CEO of Unific, about the continued evolution of Quotific, Unific’s CPQ and quoting solution for eCommerce-driven businesses. Parag explains how Quotific has developed since his last appearance on the podcast, including deeper integration with Shopify, support for customer-specific price lists, location-based inventory visibility, and improved product catalog search capabilities. He also discusses why Shopify’s recent B2B-related enhancements are creating new opportunities for companies that need a more connected quote-to-order process. A major theme of the conversation is the growing need to reduce fragmentation between eCommerce, CRM, quoting, pricing, approval, and order management processes. Parag shares why many customers want sales teams to work primarily inside HubSpot, while still connecting quoting and ordering activity with Shopify. He also explains why Unific has chosen to focus more deeply on Shopify and HubSpot before expanding its integration efforts with platforms such as Salesforce or Microsoft Dynamics. The discussion also covers common challenges in B2B eCommerce and high-ticket B2C selling, including pricing complexity, discount approvals, fragmented workflows, and the difficulty of changing sales rep behavior. Parag shares examples from customer conversations and explains why time savings, easier quote management, and a smoother buyer experience are key adoption drivers. Toward the end of the episode, Frank and Parag discuss the role of AI in CPQ, including product recommendations, customer segmentation, and the potential for AI to improve the buying experience in eCommerce-focused CPQ scenarios.

This episode is especially relevant for anyone interested in CPQ, eCommerce CPQ, Shopify CPQ, HubSpot quoting, B2B eCommerce, quote-to-order automation, and the future of AI in CPQ.
