Frequently Asked Questions

Is Sales Dev right for my company?
Business model: selling to B2B. Average revenue per client more than 1k €/year. Ideal for subscription based (SaaS), but also for high-return models. Stage of your company:
  • Early: not started sales team. Founder is selling.
  • Growth: with a sales team, but not getting enough results.
Do I need Sales Dev?
Problems identified:
  • Know which is your target market but you don't talk with enough of them
  • Don't have time to raise interest in the market but confident on how to display your solution to your target market
  • Team is not performing enough. I'm not sure how to solve it and what is realistic to change
Marketing vs. Prospecting?
Marketing: passive reach. Inbound leads. ACV < 1k€
Prospecting: active reach. Outbound leads. ACV > 5k€
Usually for young B2B companies with higher ACV it's better to start with Prospecting. With a lower number of target customers, outbound is the most efficient way.
They are both complimentary and should align content and targeting.
What are the typical roles?
Marketing creates inbound leads.
Market research finds target companies.
Prospecting (SDR) turns companies' lists into sales opportunities.
Sales (AE) closes the open opportunities.
Team configuration. Who should I hire?
It depends on the deal size, market maturity and stage:
  • For young companies B2B, where the founders are selling themselves. An SDR is the good choice for first hire. Then AE, and then Marketing.
  • For scaling companies with an established Sales team. A tandem SDR+AE works well. With an equivalent Marketing team providing enough inbound leads.
Is my Sales Dev organisation working well?
A great indicator is when you can onboard junior SDRs within 1 month who deliver qualified opportunitites. If you can get virtually anyone to generate meetings, you'll scale.
How much should Sales Dev generate?
A SDR should cover the volume for one Account Executive.
Depending on deal size an SDR should generate between 4 and 20 new meetings per month.
There are several team configurations. We can calculate the appropriate for your company.
