    Win Competitive Deals Through Excellent Support - Areya Dargahi, Director of Mid-Market Sales at Gainsight

    Areya Dargahi leads mid-market sales at Gainsight, a Series E SaaS company that helps businesses drive efficient growth by unifying the post-sales customer journey. Areya has built out their mid-market sales team from scratch, and now his team is bringing just shy of $10 million ARR. Gainsight started off as an enterprise-only solution and then moved down to target SMB and mid-market clients. They saw that smaller companies had outgrown the tools available to them and realized there’s a huge opportunity to expand. Although from a product perspective there weren’t many strong competitors that rivaled Gainsight, their downmarket motion still required quite a bit of competitive intel and strategy to ensure that Gainsight wins those competitive deals.ls. What really helped them was setting up a slack channel where the whole team monitors their competitors and shares their insights - whether they are positioning changes, new content releases or notes from going head to head on a deal. Areya is a huge proponent of quick response times during the sales process. While features do matter, for upmarket deals there’s always a possibility that a feature gets custom built for that client, but in order to build enough mutual trust for such a big, two-sided commitment, something as simple as quick response times can work wonders when putting prospects at ease during the sales process. Tune into the full episode to learn why you should improve your sales process by taking a customer success approach!

    How to Build a Mid-Market Sales Motion with Steven Wright, Director of Mid-Market Sales at Synergis

    Steve Wright leads mid-market sales at Synergis, where they help companies find and retain top talent in technology. After 25 years of primarily serving enterprise clients, Synergis saw an opportunity to expand into mid-market - and the results have been phenomenal. The magic of mid-market is that it allows you to work directly with decision makers who have strategic, tactical and contract signing abilities all in one. They have less established buying processes, which can be a huge relief if your company doesn’t yet have a fully fleshed out enterprise motion. In today's softer market, mid-market companies are still big because they don't have the internal resources to do everything in-house. While enterprise clients can often leverage existing teams, mid-market needs external support to drive transformation. This has led to Synergis's mid-market division hitting 107% of plan even as enterprise slows. For companies looking to expand into mid-market, success requires deep domain expertise and the ability to be advisory rather than just a silver-tongued seller. The best salespeople combine enterprise best practices with consultative selling skills while continuously working on their output metrics. Tune into the full episode to learn how to build and scale a successful mid-market motion!

    How to Master HubSpot in 2024 - Ali Schwanke, Founder of Simple Strat

    Ali Schwanke (Founder @ Simple Strat) is an expert in helping companies get better and faster results through mastering HubSpot. Her company is a Diamond Solutions Partner and she’s the host of HubSpot Hacks, the #1 unofficial YouTube channel for HubSpot Tutorials. Even though HubSpot positions itself as a plug and play solution that’s easy to set up, Ali believes that the best HubSpot strategies start with a whiteboard and a chart. You need an understanding of what exactly is the purpose of your CRM and how it can best integrate with your team's existing workflows.  Intent mapping has proven to be a winning tactic in 2024. With the right tech stack you can start to truly focus your sales efforts towards leads that have the highest likelihood of closing. Ali recommends identifying false signals like existing customer website visits to help make the process more efficient. Automations are a necessity, but over-automating can cause complications down the line, especially as you scale your team. Tune into the full episode to get a real lesson in RevOps and master your CRM!  HIGHLIGHTS:0:00 Intro1:51 Product-market fit is a must3:41 Clearbit + HubSpot = Data Enrichment 5:31 How to build better workflows on HubSpot7:08 Orchestrations in HubSpot 9:11 First steps towards lead scoring11:50 Lead Gen vs Demand Gen 13:21 HubSpot configuration dream state16:11 Best HubSpot Hacks19:17 There is no automation silver bullet 20:52 Top 5 Don’t Do’s in HubSpot22:37 Max’s bonus Don’t Do 25:05 Top 3 HubSpot Dashboards Connect with Ali - https://www.linkedin.com/in/alischwanke/ Connect with Alan - https://www.linkedin.com/in/alan-j-zhao/ Connect with Max - https://www.linkedin.com/in/max-greenwald/ Want to convert your website visitors instantly?

    Stop Losing Deals to Procurement - Mike Lander, CEO at Piscari

    Mike Lander is an expert at handling procurement and helping sales teams increase their win rates in the mid-market and beyond. After years of founding companies, running consultancies and scaling teams, Mike took his  experience as a buyer and started Piscari to help sellers better understand how buyers think and how to walk away from negotiations with their desired outcomes achieved. The biggest mistake a seller can make when dealing with procurement is sticking their head in the sand and expecting the deal to go through. There’s a common myth that procurement refuses to work with SME’s - and that is simply not the case, as they value the flexible and entrepreneurial approach that smaller companies bring. To win over procurement, you need to understand what they value and be proactive with your approach. One thing to always remember is that procurement aren’t the budget holders - they are the guardians of the budget, which means that their interests are aligned with mitigating risk and increasing savings. The best thing you can do is involve them early on - get added to their supplier lists, pass any checks and really introduce yourself so that you’re not starting over when the sales cycle looks to be almost finished. Tune into the full episode to learn how to handle procurement and win upmarket deals! HIGHLIGHTS:0:00 Intro 3:04 Who are procurement teams and what do they want?9:51 How to prepare for procurement 13:20 How to quantify ROI15:49 Challenge procurements thinking 20:36 Who does procurement report to?23:04 Stop wasting time on unwinnable deals 25:55 The Incumbent wins most of the time27:27 Winning in competitive bid processes30:04 Get good at RFP’s Connect with Mike - https://www.linkedin.com/in/mikelander/ Connect with Alan - https://www.linkedin.com/in/alan-j-zhao/ Connect with Max - https://www.linkedin.com/in/max-greenwald/ Want to convert your website visitors instantly?

    How to Transition out of Founder-Led Sales - Alex Newmann, CEO & Founder of Newmann Consulting Group

    Alex Newmann (Founder & CEO of Newmann Consulting Group) is an expert at helping founders of B2B companies (either bootstrapped or Series A funded) transition out of founder-led sales, make their first sales hires and build a scalable, repeatable sales process. In this episode, he sits down with Alan Zhao to help change the way you think about making your first sales hires and bring some light to a few strategic mistakes that lead to unsuccessful sales handoffs. When taking the leap out of founder-led sales, you don’t really need to reinvent the wheel. Alex says that no matter your GTM model - PLG, Enterprise or inbound-led - the playbook already exists and you should use it to structure 80% of your strategy. The rest revolves around your ideal client profile, sales cycle, niche and messaging.  Your first hire is pretty much the most important decision you’ll make when transitioning. Hiring too early will cause a lot of inefficiency and burn out even the brightest sales hire, that’s why you need to achieve product-market fit prior to that. Same goes for hiring a sales leader before you have a sales team assembled, as their expertise won’t be super useful and you’ll be burning money. The founder should start by producing some sales wins alone, then documenting the process, establishing their ICP and dialing in their messaging. After you’ve built your preliminary sales process, make your first hire and scale further by hiring in small groups - that way they’ll have some internal competition to keep things exciting, as well as a peer group that can learn and develop together. Finding the right fit during the interview process is another strong indicator of a successful, long-term hire. Before hiring, Alex recommends first identifying the technical level of your target buyer and evaluating whether it’s possible to teach someone the ins and outs of the market within a reasonable amount of time. Then, consider your “ideal sales profile” - their industry experience, their stage fit and their personality traits.

    Building High Conversion B2B Landing Pages - Sahil Patel, CEO of Spiralyze

    Today’s episode welcomes Sahil Patel, CEO of Spiralyze. They help companies grow by providing data-driven performance Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) services. The point of a great landing page is to lead your potential clients to take action on your offer - whether it’s a demo, a strategy call or a free trial. Sahil mentions that while lead gen gets a bad rap on LinkedIn, it’s still part of a holistic brand strategy and exists as a necessary bridge between prospects liking your brand from afar and prospects actually talking to your team. A great landing page can hook your prospects into taking action, which can ultimately be the difference between you and your competitors getting a chance to make their case that their product is a good fit for the prospect. Sahil considers a double-digit lift in your metric of choice as mission success when optimizing your landing page. Most companies don’t see this level of improvement because their landing pages consist of a huge wall of text that’s boring, their forms are too long and they don’t actually show you the product. When asked about examples of great landing pages in SaaS, Sahil refers to Service Fusion and Record360. The strategy of showing your product on your landing page is what Sahil calls the “shiny car in the parking lot” - when you see it and you want it.  A big part of becoming a shiny car is credibility. While building brand credibility happens outside of the landing page, you still have real estate within the page to place exceptional testimonials from those clients that have the biggest brand and best match your ICP. A great testimonial should have a simple message that roughly translates to: “I bought the product and it worked”:. Tune into the full episode to learn more on how to build a high performance B2B landing page.

    Generating $2.8 Million in Pipeline at Demandbase - Austin Jouett, AE at Intensify Demand

    Today’s episode welcomes Austin Jouett, Full-Cycle Account Executive at Intentify Demand - a provider of demand and lead generation services, specializing in B2B sectors such as SaaS, IT technology, FinTech, Martech and HR Tech. They help businesses connect with their ideal prospects by delivering high quality and meticulously verified data including contacts, companies, firmographics and technographics. Austin started out in door-to-door sales. There he was trained to never take no for an answer, which led to a lot of aggression from his prospects. This made him appreciate the safety of remote phone sales and gave him a thick skin when it comes to rejection. His first SDR gig was at Demandbase, where he generated $2.8 million in pipeline becoming their top SDR in 2022. He started off as an inbound SDR, where he used qualified.com and an in-house ABM platform to prospect into deanonymized accounts. Prospects had to go through 3 different passes between differently ranked salespeople, which is not a great customer experience and led to a lot of ghosting. Austin’s daily workflow for inbound and upsells consisted of taking the users of their ABM platform, analyzing signals within Demandbase and writing pipeline acceleration reports for his prospects. This got him to book a record of 16 meetings in a single month, which was 2.5x his quota.  Tune into the full episode to learn Austin’s way of generating pipeline!
