Recruit to solve constraints not because you need to scale. Don't just hire for the sake of it. Here's how: 1. Map out your go to market motion → What are the different steps → What's the input, output and conversion for each step 2. Look for the point of constraint → Where's the bottleneck? 3. Make a hypothesis on how to solve the bottleneck → Can we change something in our approach? → Maybe there's a software? → Or do we need to hire? 4. If you need to hire, do it to solve the bottleneck → Not enough leads? SDR might make sense → Not converting? Might need an AE ... There's a science to it and it's not that complicated. Don't just hire an account executive cause you want more sales. ------------ 👋 I'm Laurens 🧑💻 I help SaaS startups scale their go to market team 💬 I post about go to market, SaaS startups and thoughts on my journey as a founder

5 Learnings I got to know about tech sales: 1. Success in tech sales isn't about selling a product; it's about solving a problem and adding value to your client's business. 2. The key to unlocking sales in tech lies in understanding not just what you're selling, but who you're selling to. 3. In a world of constant innovation, the best tech sales professionals are those who embrace change, adapt quickly, and stay ahead of the curve. 4. Sales isn't just about closing deals; it's about opening doors to new possibilities and partnerships. 5. Behind every successful tech sale is a story of perseverance, resilience, and the relentless pursuit of customer satisfaction. If your company is hiring for any tech sales positions, feel free to reach out to me. #OpenToWok #TechSales #Hiring

𝟭𝟬𝟬,𝟬𝟬𝟬+ 𝗼𝗽𝗲𝗻 𝘀𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗷𝗼𝗯𝘀—𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗮 𝗺𝗮𝗷𝗼𝗿 𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗳𝘁 𝗶𝗻 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗻𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗲. 𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗱𝘆 𝘁𝗼 𝗮𝗱𝗮𝗽𝘁? Sales teams are undergoing a significant transformation, and it's reshaping how companies approach their go-to-market strategies. Here’s what you need to know: 🔄 Role Shifts: • AEs are stepping up as primary sellers, often taking on a full-cycle capacity—managing everything from lead qualification to closing deals. • SDR positions are becoming leaner as companies rely on automation, strategic GTM shifts, and streamlined sales processes. 📈 Opportunities: • Despite these changes, the market is buzzing with opportunities, as evidenced by the current 100,000+ open sales roles at startups. 💡 What This Means for Sellers: • The traditional lines between sales roles are blurring. AEs who can manage the full sales cycle are in high demand. For SDRs, the path forward may involve upskilling or transitioning into hybrid roles. Are you seeing these changes in your sales team or company? How are you adapting to this shift in the market? Interested to hear your thoughts. #SalesJobs #GTMStrategy #SalesLeadership #SalesCareers #MarketTrends

We’re hiring SDRs. If you’re a recruiter looking for a change, this might be for you. You’ll be sparking curiosity and starting conversations with recruitment and staffing businesses across the UK and US. Not with templates and scripts (okay, maybe some), but with authenticity, curiosity, and a bit of courage. How? Any way that works: ➽ Phone ➽ Video ➽  Voice Note ➽  Email ➽  Smoke Signals You’ll report to Ollie Bates - legend in the SDR game. Sometimes he “hits target”, often he’s obliterating it. He’ll be your mentor, coach, and occasional co-conspirator. You’ll also be kitted out with borderline ridiculous tech enablement. So, no fluff, no wasting time - just tools to help you focus on smashing it. OTE is 57.5k What You’ll Bring: ➽  A recruiter’s edge: You know how agencies work, how recruiters think ➽  A relentless drive: You don’t stop at “good enough.” ➽  Natural gravitas:   When you talk, people generally listen. ➽  Insatiable curiosity: You ask better questions because you genuinely care about the answers. This isn’t for everyone. If you want easy, predictable or boring, this isn’t it. But if you’re ready to take what you already know and apply it in a way that excites you, we’d love to hear from you. Recruiters who’ve made the leap into this role rarely look back. Will you be one of them? Find me. Apply. Let’s talk. Ps. If it’s not for you please give the post a like to share far and wide. Cheers!

In this post: validated/waterfalled contact information (mobile numbers, LinkedIn Profiles and emails) for 267 SDR leaders at hiring/fast growing series A, B, or C tech startups. Some of these are hiring for SDR roles publicly, some are just startups that have positive growth in the past 6 moths. No you don't have to comment "list" to get this list :) It's right here - https://lnkd.in/ej2fTjJ9 What I WOULD like tho is if you could tag someone who is looking for an SDR role so they can find this list and hopefully they can find a job. If you are a jobseeker for an SDR role (or any role, really) I'd recommend a few things: • Write compelling narratives about why you want to be in sales • Only reach out to fast growing companies, which all these are • Use free trials of data providers to get contact information • LinkedIn DM hiring managers • Cold email hiring managers • Cold call hiring managers • Don't "Easy Apply" Hope this helps! #hiring #sdr #jobopening  

Apologies for the glare recently. 🟢 I’ll be going 100% outbound next week. I don’t know who actually gets interviews off direct applications anymore. 🤷♂️ Genuinely, why even have them? Taking this weekend reset a bit, and huge shoutout to everyone who’s been backing my corner so far. 💪 Genuinely too many folks to tag, but I’m grateful to have so many people supporting me. It’s helping immensely to stay positive in this journey. Gotta keep rowing 🚣 ————————————————— What I’m looking for: -MidMarket, ENT, or founding AE -SaaS or Tech (not specific) -Any opportunities welcome P.S. - If a direct intro or referall works out. I’ll literally send you cookies 🍪 (Grove Cookie Company) #JobHunt #NewRole #SaaS #Sales #Tech #Hiring #TechSales #SaaSSales
