Looking for a Sales Accountability Partner

Does anyone here have an accountability buddy to help keep your motivation up and keep you on task?

I was thinking that might be a fun way to have some support.

I'm looking for someone who's organized, reliable, a good listener, and high energy.

I have never had that, or needed it, but if you wanna go down that road and have someone you trust - go for it.

I wouldn’t be looking for it here though. Best is someone where you work. Kinda like a gym buddy.

Financial Advisor

Great point, I appreciate that.

Decent idea for someone who wants to be a decent performer. But ya know how every org seems to have one hyper-performer? That one flies solo

Financial Advisor

I guess I think even top performers have mentors and coaches, but it may not always be visible? I don't have hard data to back that up though

2 necessary ingredients in a successful salesperson
1. Belief in self
2. Belief in product

Not to be confused with ingredients of a successful company... just for perspective.

Yes, a coworker I've known for 5+ years. We both joined a startup around the same time. Great to have someone to compete and commiserate with

Financial Advisor

Yeah, I was thinking a co-worker makes good sense, maybe just someone off my team.

Why don’t you have them do your cold calls, and your demos too.

If you need someone to keep you motivated and on track, perhaps that isn’t the right job for you…

I think we’ve stumbled onto a new matchup app for sales - Sellr. Swipe if it’s a match!

In seriousness, best of luck finding a sales partner. I have a running connection with my sales team - we are constantly connecting and keeping each other up to date and pushing. I highly recommend building those connections at your place of work.

Financial Advisor

I am connected with folks on my team, but I was thinking of something a bit more regular and don't want to put someone out necessarily. The top people on my team are doing like 15-35 meetings a week.

Used to be my current manager,but now it's a new fella that recently joined that I admire his spirit and his dedication to work!

Financial Advisor

Nice, very cool to be inspired by a new person on the team.

Here's my accountability tip for the day: get out of FA work and become an SDR.

Financial Advisor

Could you expand on that a bit for me? Would love to hear more.

Low key you shouldn’t need external motivation. You gotta want it
