It’s every sales leader’s dream to have a team of salespeople that knows where to spend their time, builds half their pipeline through their own prospecting and crushes the competition during the buying process. Jen Bennett has made this dream a reality at multiple companies and shares the keys to her success in this podcast.
From how to translate your company’s ICP into a target account list, to how to leverage your network for intros and your customers for referrals to how to decide which deals to focus on, there’s a ton of valuable advice in here. It’s a must listen for anyone in a sales leadership role, especially in today’s economic climate, where salespeople can no longer rely on marketing and SDR teams to feed them and have to fight for every deal.
