What would you say is the worst month for sales?

For the companies that I normally advise, January, February and March are a desert... Does the same happen in your companies?

For us it's January and July. As a result, these have the lowest quota skews.

BDR stands for business development representative while SDR is for Sales development representative..

It's not because of the role, it's because of the language, I'm from LATAM, but thank you very much for the information

Itโ€™s depends upon so many things - what business you are in, location, financial year, product lifecycle and the list can go on โ€ฆ.

Yes, that's why the question is very personal. In your case, what sector of the market are you in and what are the bad months?

July is awful. August seems to be a second runner up trying to squeeze vacations in before the school year starts for a lot of people.
