Best early-stage sales tech stack?

Hey gang,


I'll be starting a new role as the first sales hire at a seed-stage startup. I don't have all the details yet but sales/marketing are being built out and I'll be helping put together the sales tech stack to hit the ground running.


Any advice on the right setup to run lean? I believe these guys have Hubspot for CRM but no other tools for prospecting/lead gen/data lists, etc.


My previous setup at a larger company was more complex but also more expensive - Salesforce CRM, Salesloft for outreach, ZoomInfo for data, Jiminny for call recording/call analysis, etc etc etc.


I've heard good things about Pipedrive. Any others worth looking at?

Basic Tech Stack for a small company (From my own experience)

- Hubspot: CRM, Marketing Automation, Sales Outreach
- ZoomInfo: Pretty self explanatory
- G-Suite: Easy repository for information, also integrates with both HS and Zoom. 
- LinkedIn Nav can be helpful for prospecting and mapping accounts but not necessary.

Awesome, glad to hear Hubspot also has sales outreach - so won't need a salesloft or outreach or discover type tool.

Pipedrive is garbage.

Try the search bar and academy. I think their is already a lot of content in the community ok this topic.

HubSpot, Seamless, Notion. That’s the trio to set the world on fire without a ton of Cash burn.

Sweet, Seamless comes up a lot, is that a Zoominfo replacement? I'll do my research
