I was recruited to join a SaaS company as an AE with a quota of $1.2M in net new bookings. The recruiter and the other salespeople that I interviewed with (including the VP of Sales) stated that the majority of the sales pipeline would come from inbound leads. However, after being at the company for several months it's apparent that there are very few inbound leads and most missing quota by 50-80%.
Has anyone else been through a similar experience? If so, how did you handle it?
