This is an often underrated problem. I used to work at a company where we would hold demos every other friday, with drinks and nibbles. We would put a lot of thoughts into what we were going to present, and were really careful about the messaging, because execs and sales were watching.

The last thing we wanted was for an "Isn't it neat?!" hacked-together demo to be mistaken for something shippable, if workable at all.
