The claim inventory

Every claim the organisation makes, gathered from wherever it is actually being said rather than from the approved messaging.

The deliverable

What it is

Claims accumulate in places nobody audits: sales decks, support replies, conference talks, old landing pages. The approved messaging is a subset.

The inventory is the only way to discover claims the organisation cannot support, which is normally found out by a customer instead.

Include claims made verbally in sales conversations. They are the hardest to inventory and the least likely to be supported.
