“It's a pleasure to have met Sri and had the opportunity to work with him on multiple clientele. He brings insane energy to the table and also is an excellent conversation starter. Sales in DTC landscape is a skill that requires technique, research, dedication, perseverance and most importantly a very in depth knowledge of the offering on hand. Subscriptions are a very complicated use case that is also hard to explain. What sets Sri apart from the many others → Deep understanding of the product that he is selling. → Amazing customer research and profiling - knows exactly what the customer requires. → Extremely empathetic person and has a great grasp of emotions. → Stable deals and clientele that require no more selling → Memes and the ability to drop a dad joke at a serious conversation :) Will 100% vouch for him as the go-to sales person for any SaaS founder looking to sell their product / service.”

Swarming of two multi-rotor UAVs
-
After successfully stabilising two multi-rotor aerial vehicles, I swarmed the two of them using a leader-follower algorithm.
As we attempt to swarm them, the GPS signal accuracy for both the quad-copters must be high as there is a feedback loop to be established between the two of them. Autopilot for the two UAVs will be tested confirming the navigational capabilities of said quad-copters.

Post this, an in-built option to swarm the two of the UAVs using the Mission Planner software, which is open-source software, will be used. Since this is not a method previously tried upon by peers, we are in the process of learning Python to code in Rasberry Pi to enable swarming by overriding the already existent Mission Planner controls as a backup. -

SDRs starting in B2B with no experience- You are going to fail without the training. Two ways to succeed in B2B: 1. Learn the skills required in b2b 2. Learn the interview skills Two different things. Cracking the interview was step 1. 9/10 companies don't have a training program and while you made the transition you lack the skills. If you need to crack the interview, i can launch an interview course. If you have never written an email before in b2c, you think chat gpt will help you? If each of your cold call started with is it a good time to talk, you think it will work in b2b. You'd be reaching out to a global audience who will hang up in 5 secs. 8/10 candidates we speak to who are making the transition are thinking only about the job. Would you get us a guranteed job? came up in every call. only 2/10 asked questions like what skills will they learn. I can tell you only these people will succeed in the long term. Rest will get frustrated when they wont see the growth. What worked in B2C wont work in B2B. Manansh kapoor and others put their heart and soul in learning, the amount of questions i answered for them were insane. Make the decision wisely #sales #sdr

Vroom vroom: What businesses should know about sales velocity. When it comes to sales, how patient should business owners be? A metric called “sales velocity” can help you decide. The formula is generally expressed as: qualified opportunities multiplied by deal value multiplied by win rate, all divided by sales cycle length. Calculating the formula quarterly can enable you to see how quickly or slowly deals are moving over a year or more. Naturally, it’s critical to have consistent, accurate data. From there, you may discover problems such as misalignment between the marketing and sales departments, problematic leads or too high a volume of leads/opportunities, or overcomplicated sales processes. Contact us for help analyzing your sales data.

SDRs - Prospects aren't turning up for the Meeting even after agreeing for it? "Creating Multi Touchpoints & Leveraging them is the Key to Success" (Referring to Touch Points as T.P.) 🔶 Scenario 1: Prospect agrees for a Meeting & you mutually decide on a time. 🔹 T.P 1️⃣ Inform the Prospect that you will connect with them on LinkedIn. Send a personalised invite so that he remembers you. 🔹 T.P 2️⃣ The e-mail containing the Agenda and other details & it will anyway go out as part of the E-meet invite. 🔹 T.P 3️⃣ Tell them that you will also send a WhatsApp message with the meeting details so that he has it handy. Send the details & ask them to accept the invite on WhatsApp if they haven't done it yet. 🔶 Scenario 2: On the Day of the Meeting. 🔹 Send an E-mail reminder as you begin your day so that he is mentally prepared for it. 🔹 30 minutes post the E-mail also send a WhatsApp text reminder. 🔹 If the Prospect hasn't acknowledged any of the above, call the prospect about 2 hours before the E-meet. 🤘 Important Note: If they don't turn up even after these steps then relax, now you have the Touch Points to leverage and reschedule the Invite. #bdr #sdr #sales #ColdCalling #LeadGeneration #BusinessDevelopment #SalesTips #SalesStrategy #SalesSuccess #SalesTraining #SalesSkills #Prospecting #SalesHacks #B2BSales #ClosingDeals #SalesProfessionals #SalesTechniques #OutboundSales #SalesConversion #salesinsights

Effective prospecting relies on creating a solid game plan tailored to your needs and consistently adhering to it. Successful salespeople make numerous strategic decisions in their minds before delivering a sales presentation, while those who struggle often make only a few. Consequently, inadequate pre-call planning frequently results in lost sales opportunities. Focusing on thorough pre-call planning can significantly influence the outcome of a sale, determining who is likely to succeed or fail. The wisdom of Chinese general Sun Tzu underscores this principle; he emphasized that entering a battle with a comprehensive strategy is crucial for victory, whereas a flimsy plan leads to defeat. The same principle applies to sales: a salesperson who approaches a prospect with a well-prepared plan is far more likely to secure the sale than one who arrives unprepared.

If you are an outbound SDR cold calling in India, and not able to book 1 meeting a day (at least), something needs to change. In the past 4 years, I’ve rarely seen connect rates in India drop below 35%. That means if you dial 70 numbers, you’ll likely connect with around 25 people. Out of those, you’ll have at least 10 real conversations (yes, even on a bad day—people do talk here!). Now, with a 10% conversion rate, you should be booking at least 1 meeting a day. India is a high-input market for SDRs, and the key is focusing on those inputs. If you put in the effort, the outcomes will follow. Cold calling? It’s still your best bet here, hands down. Sure, try other channels, but cold calls should be your mainstay. Trust me. I remember booking 84 outbound demos in 2 months as an SDR (Only cold calls), when I was at Revv bringing in logos like Dream11, PayTM, LivSpace, etc. Also won a challenge "Revv Premier League" (1 Lakh in cash xD) and a promotion after this :). No fancy tools, no list builders. Literal manual work: scraping, manually finding data, calling, and then locking in demos. Automation is great, and if I had the option, I’d streamline half the process, and if I could, I’d take advantage of it for a lot of tasks. But I would still focus on the critical input—those calls—because that’s what ultimately drives the output. Food for thought: Has automation made us too comfortable and complaining? Are we relying on it so heavily that we’re forgetting to put in the effort to have genuine, impactful conversations? PS: This is not a general view of everything, this opinion is based on my experience :). PPS: If you made it till here, and you are an SDR, I am hiring SDRs for my team, please DM. #sdrs #coldcalling #saassales #hiring

Struggling with inbound lead conversions? Here’s what’s at stake: - Limited growth potential - Reduced revenue - Wasted sales resources - Increased pressure on outbound efforts - Missed learning opportunities But there’s a solution: the CGPTCIBA Framework for qualifying leads effectively: C – Challenge: What challenge are you currently facing? G – Goal: What goal is this challenge keeping you from achieving? P – Plan: How do you plan to overcome this challenge? T – Timeline: When do you need to achieve this goal? C – Consequences: What happens if you don’t meet this goal? I – Implications: What will achieving this goal allow you to do next? B – Budget: What’s your investment plan for reaching this goal? A – Authority: Who else is involved in the decision-making? With this approach, you can achieve: - Higher conversion rates - Lower customer acquisition cost - Increased revenue - Stronger customer relationships - Scalable growth #B2BSaaSsales #salesmanager #saleswithanureet

The hidden costs of traditional SDR hiring 👀 Bringing SDRs on board using traditional methods can feel like a costly gamble. Understanding the financial and operational risks is crucial in an industry where every dollar counts. 1️⃣ Direct costs: The journey starts with recruitment expenses. Job ads, agency fees, background checks—these quickly pile up. SHRM reports the average cost-per-hire in tech is around $4,000. For startups on tight budgets, this is no small change. Once hired, onboarding and training further strain resources, with Glassdoor highlighting an average spend of $1,200 per employee on training alone. 2️⃣ Indirect costs: The real expense often lies in missed opportunities. A new SDR isn't immediately productive, leading to potential sales targets slipping away. The absence of active sales efforts during onboarding can delay customer engagement and market penetration. Aberdeen Group found that effective onboarding programs can boost revenue and profit margins significantly, but ineffective ones do the opposite. 3️⃣ High turnover risks: The tech industry faces a high turnover rate, with SDR roles particularly at risk. Bridge Group notes an SDR's average tenure is just 1.5 years. This turnover means repeating the costly hiring cycle sooner than planned, destabilizing the sales team and disrupting growth. The pressure on startups is immense. The financial burden and the risk of poor hires can destabilize growth trajectories. It’s time to rethink the approach and explore more efficient solutions that mitigate these risks. #saassales #startupsales #outsourcedsdr

Stop letting junior SDRs reach out to your C-Suites. Buyers don’t want to talk to salespeople anymore. They want trusted advisors. Domain experts. Yet, for some reason, 99% of sales teams completely ignore this fact and let their junior SDRs reach out to C-suites — then they sit back and wonder why their outbound doesn’t work. The WHO factor is more important today than ever before. Here’s what it means moving forward: 1. Trusted Advisors vs. SDRs: Would you take medical advice from a first-year med student? Probably not. In the same vein, expecting a junior SDR to convince a C-suite executive is a flawed strategy. Buyers today want insights from those seeped in the industry, not those reading off a script. 2. The New-Age SDR: These SDRs have authority in their field and are the ultimate subject matter experts. They possess a highly relevant audience of ICP and excel in content creation and audience engagement. They understand the nuances and pains of the prospects and create value-driven conversations, not just touchpoints. 3. Team-Selling is a Necessity: If a CFO checked your website, why in the world would you let your SDR reach out? Facilitate outbound requests to your CFO and ask them to personally connect with the prospect from their profile. It’s about leveraging the right person at the right time to build trust and relevance. 4. Signal-Based Selling: Your outreach should be driven by real-time data and intent signals. Spot the triggers: website visits, content downloads, recent funding, etc. Engage with the right person, when the timing is perfect, with the right message from the right person. This isn’t about volume; it’s about precision. TAKEAWAY: In this new era, it's not about how many emails you send, but WHO is sending them and WHY. In 2024, the most successful companies will have GTM teams that look more like consulting firms than old-school sales orgs. The next-gen of successful sales orgs will be the ones that evolve beyond the old playbooks and focus on trust, relevance, and the power of human connection. The future isn’t just lean. It’s personal.
