How to Build a Billion Dollar Outbound Sales Team w/ Carrie Bosworth (SVP Sales, Checkr)

Is the startup you're about to join gonna become a unicorn? That's the billion dollar question. It's so hard to tell. But one of the leading indicators of that that's rarely talked about is whether they're scaling to massive revenue through only inbound leads. It's so hard to find those companies. And if you do latch on. That's what happened with Carrie Bosworth, who a few years ago joined Checkr as the SVP of Sales. They scaled to huge revenue numbers through inbound only, but they knew it was gonna dry up. In order to keep that pace, they brought in Carrie to diversify inbound with outbound selling. She's been there for two years and in her own words: It's not so simple.

Becoming a Unicorn Doesn't Happen By Chance w/ Dini Mehta (fmr CRO, Lattice)

You're looking for your next job. The last one didn't go so well. You gotta get this one right, and you found one. But how do you know if it's good and how do you know you can help? That's an important riddle. And today we bring in my friend Dini Mehta , the founding CRO of Lattice. She saw that this company wasn't exactly growing in its infancy, but she came across Jack Altman, Sam Altman's (OpenAI) brother, who's one of the most brilliant founders she met. So she had to assess Lattice to figure out if she could grow it, and then execute a playbook so that years later it's become a $3 billion company. Here's how she did it.

Expanding to Multi-Product Selling w/ Ryan Meadows (SVP Global Sales, Klaviyo)

Expanding from selling a single product to multiple products. It's almost a required journey for getting to unicorn status. And yet that journey often leads to failure. Most companies think, "Mobilize the organization, train the sales team, build the product, get the customer support folks trained, change the website." Only, that's the approach that leads to failure. So today we bring in Ryan Meadows, head of Global Sales at Klaviyo, to walk us through how his company has scaled to multi-product selling. And in the process, hit unicorn status. The Science of Scaling is a HubSpot Original Podcast // Learn more about HubSpot for Startups // Produced by Matthew Brown

My favorite feature is when Mark makes personal comments and thought on the items being discussed. Often I do not know the guests but I trust Mark from having read his book, listened to interviews and having read The Science of a Scaling. It helps me organize my thoughts and strategies. Keep producing!! Even if shows are just Mark taking us through Harvard Case Study type situations.

Too many other podcasts that cover sales & GTM feel way to prepped and sugar coated, or it’s given by the person who doesn’t actually do the work. But this show gets into the weeds from how the work gets done, the steps along the way and the progression along the growth journey. Not just a “sell sell sell” podcast. Plus, Mark has the leverage to get pretty much any buddy he wants on the show lol

I’m three episodes in now and the break for commentary format is growing on me. I’d still prefer a more natural flow but I’ve taken some great pieces of advice away recently.
