I was talking with friend who is an AE (lets call him Adam). Adam began his career as a BDR with Oracle and then was promoted after about 18 months. I worked at a start-up and grew with the company. I did work for a large firm but was already established in my career.
After 5 long years, Adam is about to be promoted as a enterprise sales lead. He said about 70% of his initial BDR class is gone.
Is this your experience as well? If so, is this a good analogy or have you heard of something better?
I am actively recruiting BDRs for my team but have been outbid by the big boys. I would like to make some type of comparison.
