I hope my SDR team refers to me as account daddy
SDRs at my old company would routinely set meetings with closed lost opps telling them we had “new pricing”. Technically this was true, our prices were now higher.
This is brilliant. I can’t wait to hit 200% of my meeting quota until I suddenly and permanently don’t have a quota 😂
how did prospects react to that? I can't imagine they'd like that very much
They did not
If u do any of the above to me, it’s a guaranteed water boarding adventure 4 u. Except I would laugh my ass off if someone referred to my girly af ass as an “account daddy” so I guess that’s ok.
So that’s a no to telling prospects that there’s an everything must go sale during Q4?…
I’ll kill u
‼
I volunteer on behalf of the SDRs to be waterboarded.
Step into my office…
Stop bringing me bullshit leads and we will be fine.
If you call my current accounts you don't need to worry about giving out pricing or discounts, because you'll be in the meat locker so fast your head will spin.
Thanks for the idea just changed my business cards to "Account Daddy" 👍
I’ll have HR change the org chart ASAP.
I would kill my BDR if he speaks about heavy discounting just to set the meeting
I want a plaque that says "Account Daddy" awarded to me at SKO now.
Na Fr though gonna pull an Uno reverse card on this thread. When I get AE's who love meetings but don't really take action. I swear i've never seen an AE make a cold call at my company, I see their calendars they book out like 1 2 hour calling session in a week, has me thinking their pipelines must be so goddamn huge that they don't even need to prospect anymore.
I have a local partner in India who I work with who's out here prospecting with me everyday, a few hours at least on a zoom working session where we break into accounts, follow up leads, find the right people, map accounts, expand on inbound leads via information found. Not once have I had an AE that would do that with me, kind of frustrating honestly.
But honestly I only bring AE's once we've gotten everything ready for them.

LOL you at rippling? I interview with them
Some tough choices here and any of them could get someone choked out!
Set non qualified meetings for them
Account daddy would depend on the ae, for who would be upset or not😂
Maybe also on the SDR or BDR too 😂
When I was a BDR, I would be like we will bring coffee what do you like??? LMAO Or offer to sit with them during lunch and bring lunch
Do they really make decisions, or just talk to their boss? Ask yourself.
Do you TRULY influence buying decisions yourself? Then get the prospect to answer that.
