"The best companies are ones where we have an SDR-AE partnership", says Simon Gerstler.
We discuss (and argue a lot) about what makes for a great hiring process to build a rockstar #SalesDevelopmentRepresentative #SDR team. We explore who to hire and why, what to look for to identify an A-player.
We discuss training and coaching, when to demo or not to demo the product, how to qualify, how not to sell. Discussing compensation that drives desirable behaviours we uncover what bad #CompensationPlans do to drive undesirable outcomes.
When we recruit an SDR we should be looking at their potential to grow into an #AccountExecutive or #SalesManagement #CareerPath. And we explore why it makes sense to hire people with no sales experience looking to flip into a sales role, and why it's a good risk despite the resistance you might receive from your own leadership team.
