Semir Jahic

He's the absolute GOAT of sales tech in my opinion.

- Bootstrapped from $0 for the first 7 years
- Got to $30M revenue before taking PE
- Acquired his biggest competitor
- Took it public in an IPO $GTM
- Returned insane multiples to PE investors
- $1.2BN revenue today
- Still founder-led
- Profitable
- 42 years old

Henry Schuck, CEO of ZoomInfo.

The fireside between Mark Roberge and him at Stage 2 Capital's LP meeting in NYC yesterday about wins, fears, mistakes and what's ahead in sales tech was my highlight.

If we at salesmotion.io get a fraction of that success, I'd be a happy man.

OTHER HIGHLIGHTS

A candid talk on startup M&A. SPOILER: it's not a dirty word. Not every company is a rocketship, and that's ok. VCs place bets, not all work out.

A great panel by the OGs sales leaders from Oracle, Workday, Palo Alto Networks and Google Cloud about getting to the top and scaling from millions to billions in ARR.

A discussion on the $$$ billions flowing into AI, if we're in an AI bubble and if it's even a bad thing if we're in one.

Plus always great catching up with old friends, former colleagues, and other incredible operators in GTM. The kind of conversations that make you want to work harder, achieve more and move faster.

A big “Thank You” to Mark Roberge, Jay Po, Sean Po, Liz Christo, Sakib Dadi, John Boucher, and the whole Stage 2 team for hosting an excellent summit.

My $250,000 deal with Sprinklr for Q4 is suddenly at risk.

Stories like this are what I hear from reps every single week.

THE PROBLEM TODAY

CRM does not warn you when the outside world changes.
Sales tools only reflect what you type in.
None of them surface the actual signals that move deals.

But deals often slip because of external factors.

CASE IN POINT - SPRINKLR

Sprinklr is the perfect example.

Over the last twelve months, they have gone through a major transformation:

- New CEO (Rory Read)
- New CRO (Scott Millard, ex-Dell)
- CFO left, CEO covering finance
- GTM leaders left across Sales, RevOps, Enablement
- Project BearHug started to save ~700 accounts (80% of revenue)
- AI-native product shifts increasing costs and scrutiny on ROI

All of this is happening outside the CRM, 
but it impacts EVERY renewal and every late-stage deal.

NO VISIBILITY

Yet most reps selling into Sprinklr still see green stages in CRM.

A flat renewal coming up.
A “save” win forecasted for Q4.

They do not see: 
- churn remediation
- leadership turnover
- margin pressure

They do not see the new CRO transforming GTM execution and reassessing every major contract and vendor in their stack.

MISSING YOUR FORECAST

Then comes the forecast review.

Suddenly the CRO is grilling you why a “75% commit” slipped.

As an AE you have to explain yourself.
Your VP has to explain themselves.
And the CRO has to explain it again to the board.

All because the key signals were there,
BUT not in the systems that are supposed to be your
“single source of truth”.

MIND THE GAP

This is exactly the gap Salesmotion was built to close.

We monitor what is happening outside your CRM:
- Leadership changes
- Earnings calls
- Pricing shifts
- AI cost signals
- GTM strategy pivots
- Hiring and departures
- Product focus changes
- Churn programs like BearHug
- Regional expansion movements

And we surface it inside your CRM the moment it happens.

This is how sellers prevent a $250,000 surprise.

If you want true visibility into your accounts, let’s talk.

Punching above our weight - yet again! Excited to see salesmotion.io featured in the 11th SalesTech Landscape by Nicolas de Kouchkovsky.

Startup building is hard. 

We're in a crowded and fiercely competitive market.

Countless VC-backed players fighting for customers.

It's like we decided to go to the Olympics because "we like running".

Yet here we are, almost two years in:

lean, bootstrapped, growing, profitable, and happy.

Here's proof: I'm a terrible salesperson.

Luckily, we have customers that speak on our behalf.

“At first it sounded like a simple utility. But once we deployed it, it became clear there’s nothing else like it. Any sales, business development, or client services team should try this. It changes the way you work.”

This is from Andrew Giordano, VP of Commercial Operations at Analytic Partners, a Gartner leader in Marketing Mix Modeling.

I'm grateful that (despite my pitch which made us look like a "simple utility") we have built a strong partnership with the team at AP.  Lots more to come!

TAKEAWAY

I've got some homework.

Improve, refine and practice our pitch.

Salesmotion is so much more than a simple utility.

PS: If you want to know what it's all about, DM me.

Yummy! We just got featured in 👨‍🍳 Elric Legloire's newsletter: Outbound Kitchen. This is a Michelin star level breakdown.

Read this and you'll know more about Salesmotion's sales motion than anyone (me included).

Excellent breakdown with loads of tactical takeaways.

Time to get cooking!
