Everyone wishes for a sandbag but those who can't collect enough of sand particles will go ahead with op2.
Cheers to your bag!

You only start from scratch if you aren't prospecting consistently or you have a one call close.

Is there a better feeling than closing out the pipeline at the end of the month? 

If your worried about starting from scratch next month- instead of enjoying the fact your about to make good $$$$$, your probably in the wrong profession.

As the CMO, how do you come to focus on sales?

I think it’ll change to CRO soon. I oversee sales & marketing. We made that change when I was hired because it was a part of my proposal for the role. but I just took the title given to me.

Ah, got it--so you're managing the sales staff and marketing teams...does that create a more fluid pipeline that forces you to focus on lead quality rather than quantity?

Both, we use predictive revenue & ABM. So we aren't really going after anyone we know can't use our stuff. Or at least we try to get the data that allows that, sometimes people slip in with the right type of industry affiliation but they can't use us. There will never be a sales environment where quantity doesn't matter, but if you can do 20 SQL's per month based off of 125 targets. That is pretty good data.

If anyone ever says sales is boring because its the same thing day to day doesnt know how to sell. New shit to deal with every day, wouldnt trade it for anything.

Call me what you want, just sign the damn contract
"Is a job that pays the bills better than most" is not an option for some reason.
