Frequently asked questions

What outbound approach fits enterprise software sales?+

Account based outbound. Enterprise deals involve committees and long cycles, so coordinated multi contact outreach into a named list of accounts outperforms broad single contact prospecting.

When should a company outsource sales development instead of hiring?+

Outsourcing fits when you need pipeline faster than you can hire, want to avoid management overhead, or are testing a new segment before committing to headcount.

What is the difference between an SDR and a closer?+

An SDR creates and qualifies opportunities at the top of the funnel. A closer, often an account executive, runs the sales process to a signed deal. SDR outsourcing supplies the first role.
