Frequently asked questions
Should a revenue consulting firm run its own outbound program?+
Yes, and doing it well is part of the credibility. A disciplined outbound program both fills the firm's pipeline and demonstrates the revenue expertise it sells, provided the execution meets the standard the firm advises on.
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.
