Carve-out customer interview questions

Eight questions to ask customers before Day 1 and again before TSA exit

Question bank of eight carve-out customer interview questions in three groups: the work today, what ties you to us, what would change your mind
Eight questions to reuse before Day 1 and again before TSA exit

Eight interview questions for the customers of a business being carved out of its parent, grouped into the work the product does, what ties the customer to the business, and what would change their mind. Use them in the same order before Day 1 and again before the transition services agreement ends so the answers compare. Paste them into any tool, or run them as AI-moderated interviews in Koji.
