Sales is stressful.
Turkey built an industry around it.

Every job is stressful. 

I get that.

But the stress of a salesperson is different.

𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗳𝗮𝗰𝗲:

- Pressure
- Rejection
- Judgment
- Uncertainty
- Expectations

Still not convinced?

Every deal can die last minute.
Every “maybe” keeps your mind busy.
Every quota resets the clock.

𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼:

-Detach from outcomes
-Handle rejection calmly

Don't lose your hair.

If this was your reality in 2025, I’ll see you in Istanbul this year.

I'm sure Turkish Airlines can help. 😅 

Jokes aside, what part of sales stresses you the most?

Building Outbound & RevOps systems for B2B companies

Prospects hate to give bad news.
(And it costs you time)

They don’t reject you.
They delay you.

They hope the problem fades.
They hope you stop following up.

Most sellers miss this.

You chase wrong deals for months.

Hoping to get positive news.

Bad discovery hides the truth.

One "I'm interested." costs you months.

𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝗵𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗼:
-Get to “no” fast
-Pressure-test intent
-Disqualify with care
-Learn to walk away early

Money is in the follow-up. That's 100%

Not in chasing the wrong deals.

Bad news early saves months.
Good sales feels honest.

Agree or disagree?

BANT is outdated.
Here’s why 

BANT is a sales qualification criteria. 
Budget, authority, need, timing. 

Especially if it is outbound, the budget is rarely allocated for outbound as an example.

Last week, I saw someone in my network say,
 “BANT is the key to winning deals.”

Coming from an Enterprise C level, you'd believe.

Maybe 10–15 years ago, it was a silver bullet.

Today? 
Buying processes are no longer as simple as they used to be.


BANT is problematic because:

1️⃣ 𝗜𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗼 𝘀𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗿-𝗳𝗼𝗰𝘂𝘀𝗲𝗱

BANT was built for sellers, not for buyers. 
Buyers don’t want to be qualified for you
They want to be understood by you.

2️⃣ 𝗧𝗶𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗶𝘀 𝗿𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗹𝘆 𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲𝗮𝗿

Buyers move in and out of priorities fast.
Your job is to show impact and move the solution up in the list.
Not learning if it's the right time.
It is rarely the right time.

3️⃣ 𝗕𝘂𝗱𝗴𝗲𝘁 𝗱𝗼𝗲𝘀𝗻’𝘁 𝗺𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗹𝘆

If there’s real pain, the budget appears.
If there’s no pain, no number will matter.
Show how much their pain is costing them.

4️⃣ 𝗔𝘂𝘁𝗵𝗼𝗿𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗶𝘀 𝗱𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘇𝗲𝗱

Usually, there’s no single decision-maker anymore.
Users, champions, legal, finance, etc.

Modern frameworks, such as MEDDPICC, shift the focus from qualification to alignment.

But religiously following a framework is a mistake.

Sales involve psychology and emotions.

Never forget that.

How do you qualify prospects?

Build quality lists.
(Or outbound fails.)

Outbound is harder now.

𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲:

-Good offer
-Great copy
-Reliable infra
-Warmed up emails

None of this works if three things are wrong.

- Bad timing
- Wrong people
- Old contact data

You waste time.
You hurt deliverability.
You miss opportunities.

𝗣𝗿𝗼𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗼 𝗳𝗶𝘅𝗲𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀:

1️⃣ Pick intent that matters
2️⃣ Build pre-verified lists
3️⃣ Find real decision makers
4️⃣ Sync natively with your sequencer
5️⃣ Launch without cleaning chaos

I was part of the Prospeo V2 beta program, tested with one of my clients, and we LOVED it. (thanks for inviting me, Matthew!)

It did what outbound tools should do.

No hacks. No patchwork.

𝗦𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗻𝘂𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿𝘀:
99% contact data accuracy, up to 30% call connect.

That changes outcomes.

If lists are weak, outbound dies.

Check out Prospeo.io V2, you won't regret it.

PS: Clay ranks Prospeo as the most accurate data provider. Not a surprise.

Sales is easy.
(is it?)

"If the product is good, it'll sell itself."

Ok, fair enough.

If you're not in sales, it is easy.

- You send a message
- Book a meeting
- Send your pitch deck
- Impress with your product
- Send the quote
- Get the money

Oh, sometimes they even come to you to buy!

If you're on the buyer side, it is even easier to say it is easy.

"They just show the product, send a quote, anyone can do it"

But here is the part they don't see:

- You get rejected every day
- You lose deals to competitors
- Prospects ghost you after 4 calls
- Legal stalls your contract for weeks
- Champions go silent before signing

Competition is bigger than ever.
Everyone is building fast now.
Buyers have more power than ever.

Sales isn’t easy.

It just looks that way when it’s done right.

What part of the job do people underestimate the most?

The biggest sales mistake is simple.
(but still overlooked)

Talking too much about yourself.

Everyone knows this.

Some still forget it.

𝗡𝗼𝗯𝗼𝗱𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁:

- Your offer
- Your service
- Your product
- Your new feature
- How great you are

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝘆 𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴:
Does this help me hit my goals?

You learn that by talking less and by asking clear questions.

Sales gets easier when it is about them.

Not you.

Agree or disagree?

Selling a no-product market fit SaaS?
It is not a sales job.

It is a founder job without equity.

In those companies, your role is not just closing.

𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗹𝘀𝗼 𝗻𝗲𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼:

- Find the real ICP
- Fix weak positioning in live calls
- Turn vague value into clear outcomes
- Surface feedback no one wants to hear

You'll face blockers that kill deals before they start.

Especially if you're working with a founder who loves the product.

They're going to blame you when you can't sell.

They’ll defend features.
They’ll call it a “sales problem.”
They'll call prospects stupid for not getting it.

Sellers can't sell a product nobody needs.

Only the founder can sell to his/her network.

Sellers don’t fail here.

The product does.

Is your problem a “sales problem” or a product problem?

Never pitch the solution first.
-here's why

Problems have many fixes.

An umbrella works.
A roof works too.

Both protect from rain.

But only one fits the buyer’s world.

If you pitch early, you guess.
Guessing kills trust.

𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴:

-Fear they want gone
-Desire they want fast
-Challenge blocking progress

Then do one more thing.

Show the impact.

What breaks if nothing changes?
What slows down?
What costs them money, time, or status?

When they feel the impact, they pull the solution from you.

Not the other way around.

Sell less.
Diagnose more.

➡️ How do you diagnose before you pitch?

Sales sucks.
(It is true.)

Closing, prospecting, the whole thing sucks, too.

- You’re ghosted after a “great” call
- Quota pressure eats at your sleep
- You’re rejected 13 times before lunch
- People assume you’re pushy before you speak

All true.

The worst part? 

Some people see you as order takers.

Send email → show product → send quote → done

But here’s the thing.

It’s also a life skill.
There’s no way around it.

Start shifting your perspective.

Because it is also awesome:

- It can get very lucrative
- You meet cool people every day
- You get paid to solve real problems
- It’s the fastest path to building a business
- You build grit that most jobs will never teach
- You learn to read people better than a therapist

Most people can’t handle both sides.

But if you can?

Sales will change your life.

Be honest, do you love it or hate it?

Just "do more” is lazy manager advice.

5 worst sales discovery questions:

Outbound is changing.
Before 2019, spray & pray worked.

Send thousands of generic emails → get leads.

𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗶𝘁 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗽𝗽𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴:

- Deliverability got stricter
- Prospects got smarter (sales methods)
- Email channels got flooded

Now, in 2025, we can create high-quality emails in bulk.
With AI.

And yes, it still works for now.
(If your deal size is small + TAM is huge.)

You can also have the best cold email infrastructure.

𝗕𝘂𝘁 𝗺𝘆 𝗼𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗼𝗻:
It is getting easier to create mass email campaigns,

So history will repeat itself.

-Buyers will get “immune”
-ESP rules will tighten (even more strict)

Even good emails will start to see fewer replies.

For me, sending mass messages isn’t sales. It is a form of marketing. And it’s starting to look a lot like paid ads, only through inboxes.

I think email service providers will regulate and monetize it pretty soon.

LinkedIn avoids spam as much as possible with InMail ads, Sales Navigator credits, message limits, and verifications.

What are your thoughts?

How are you future-proofing your outbound?

-
𝗛𝗲𝗿𝗲’𝘀 𝘄𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗸𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗲:

Signal-based, hyper-relevant, multichannel approach. 

8-13 step sequences - 40-50 business days.
(cold call, LinkedIn, email)

And leveraging referrals, my network, and multithreading when/if needed.

Sales skill is a life skill.
(not just for more revenue)

Sales is not just a revenue skill.

It can help you:

- Negotiate better pay
- Build trust with people
- Sell ideas to your team
- Get buy-in from your boss
- Handle rejection with grace
- Build better personal relationships

Most importantly:
It helps you communicate with intent.

You can be a teacher, designer, engineer, or founder.

You’ll always move faster if you know how to sell.

Investing.
Copywriting.
Communication.

All life skills.

What life skill paid off most for you?

“Do you have a budget?”
(don’t ask this)

Yes, budget matters.
Every sales framework says so.

But asking it directly is lazy and self-serving.

𝗙𝗼𝗿 𝟮 𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗼𝗻𝘀:

1️⃣ Outbound:

No one has a budget for something they just heard about. They didn’t plan for you. They didn’t ask for you.

So the answer is probably “no”, even if the pain is real.

2️⃣ Inbound:

Asking about budget too early kills momentum. You turn discovery into a price check.

𝗠𝘆 𝗽𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗽𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝘀𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗹𝗲:
If there is a big pain, a budget can be found.

---

Asking “Do you have a budget?” is really asking:

“Do you have money for me?”

𝗜𝗻𝘀𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗱:

“Why hasn’t it worked?”
“Who is affected by this?”
“What have you tried so far?”
“What happens if this stays unsolved?”
“What does success change for the business?”

𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗻 𝗮𝘀𝗸:

“What priority would this have if it worked?”
“How do you usually fund problems like this?”
“Who would need to be involved to move forward?"

When the pain is clear, the budget becomes a logistics problem.

Budget is usually the outcome of good discovery.

How do you uncover budget without asking for it?

Objections are opportunities.
Many feel bad after an objection

I was like this back in 2018.

Telling myself:
"Not going to happen again."

I was terribly wrong.

You should feel good about objections.
They help you close.

𝗢𝗯𝗷𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝘀 𝗺𝗲𝗮𝗻:

-Real interest
-Serious buyer
-Active thinking
-Risk awareness

Gives you a chance to discover more.

And SOLVE.
(or disqualify fast)

𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘀𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗯𝗲 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗶𝗳 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗼𝗻𝗲:

Asks nothing
Shows no concern
Says "great product
Says yes to everything

I learned this two months later. A prospect said they would buy. - “100% sure.”

Then they vanished.

Waste of time...

Handle objections well.

This gives you a chance to solve. Or disqualify fast.

Focus on better-fit clients.

Agree or disagree?

Ideas are worthless.
(until someone pays for it)

Building products is easy now.

Every day, we see a new SaaS project.

“Let’s build first. We’ll sell later.”
“People loved the idea.”

That is how you burn resources.

Selling is the only real validation.

7+ years in B2B sales.
One failed micro-SaaS.

Almost nobody told me that my product/idea is bad.

𝗬𝗼𝘂'𝗹𝗹 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗯𝗮𝗯𝗹𝘆 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗹𝗹𝗼𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗴:

1️⃣ Sounds like a great idea, we'll consider it when you build the product.
2️⃣ We'll subscribe when it is ready!
3️⃣ We'll try it once it is live!

None of this is validation.
None of it is good news.

Because people hate to give bad news.

𝗠𝘆 𝘀𝘂𝗴𝗴𝗲𝘀𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻?
Make people take their credit cards out in advance.

Is it easy? Absolutely not.

This is why you can ask people to make small commitments first.
(Waitlist, for example)

Yes – people can buy later too, but that’s a big risk.

You might waste your time, energy, and resources.

𝗥𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿:
Money is proof. Everything else is just talk.

If the money is not in your account, there is no deal.

If you don't have any sales before building;
Don’t build it.

How do you get real commitments from prospects?

What is one thing AI will never be able to do?

Certified Clay Expert & Agency owner | I'll help you build a scalable outbound engine that gets meetings booked on autopilot in the next 180 days | Visit Youtube: @growth-today to see how

Growth shouldn’t feel random.

Most of the B2B companies hit the same walls:
Inbound leads that don’t convert

Outbound that burns reps out without results

Partnerships that look good on paper but never drive pipeline

A CRM full of noise instead of reliable data


I’ve seen it across founders, sales leaders, and marketing teams. The problem isn’t effort, it’s the lack of a repeatable, scalable GTM system.
That’s what we build at Growth Today.

Instead of disconnected tools or random campaigns, we design and implement repeatable GTM engines across sales, marketing, and partnerships that…

✅ Enrich and qualify data
✅ Activate inbound leads into real opportunities
✅ Automate outbound prospecting
✅ Keep CRMs clean and reliable
✅ Orchestrate multi-channel campaigns
✅ Make BDR teams more effective or fully replace them
✅ Align marketing + partnerships with sales for compounding growth

Recent wins:

 → Built a clean, automated CRM that doubled conversion rates
 → Launched a content-driven demand gen engine that 3x’d inbound lead quality
 → Systematized partner outreach → pipeline from alliances grew 40% in 6 months

Growth doesn’t come from more outreach or more tools.
It comes from building the right system once and scaling it.
If you’re a B2B founder or revenue leader serious about building predictable pipeline, let’s connect.

We automate 90% of our repetitive tasks or GTM motions.

And honestly, it's the only reason we can move this fast

Most of us are doing manual work…

Copywriting, following up, building lists.

We used to do that too.

Then we asked… "what if we only touched things that actually need a human?"

So, here's what we automate:

1️⃣ Lead & Account Enrichment

→ Clay auto-enriches companies & contacts with firmographics, tech stack, and intent signals.

2️⃣ ICP Qualification & Scoring

→ Clearbit/Clay score accounts automatically based on size, industry, and buying signals.

3️⃣ CRM Hygiene

→ HubSpot auto-deduplicates records, standardizes fields, and keeps pipelines clean.

4️⃣ Inbound Lead Routing

→ Zapier routes inbound leads instantly to the right owner based on rules.

5️⃣ Outbound Personalization at Scale

→ Claude generates personalized first lines using firmographic + behavioral context.

6️⃣ Multi-Channel Campaign Orchestration

→ lemlist sync email, LinkedIn, and follow-ups, and all activities w/o manually adding anything.

7️⃣ Meeting Booking & Follow-Ups

→ Calendly removes back-and-forth and auto-trigger reminders after no-shows.

8️⃣ Content Repurposing

→ Claude turns one idea into multiple GTM assets across channels.

9️⃣ Performance Tracking & Attribution

→ Hootsuite tracks what actually drives the pipeline, not vanity clicks.

🔟 Reporting & Revenue Visibility

→ Airtable dashboards that show what's working and what's not.

You don't need to automate everything overnight.

Start with one workflow that's eating your time, automate that, and see what changes.

Co-Founder @Growth Today | We Build Repeatable GTM Engines Across Sales, Marketing & Partnerships 🚀

You can have the best product in the world…

But without GTM

Nobody sees it.
Nobody hears about it.
Nobody gets it.

Because GTM isn’t some launch moment or a slide deck.

It’s the day-to-day clarity around:

who you’re actually talking to,

why they should care right now,

and where your message shows up.

I’ve seen solid products stall simply because that part was fuzzy.

Nothing was wrong with the product.

The path to the buyer just wasn’t clear.

GTM is what turns good work into traction.

Without it, even great products stay invisible.

Some examples:

- A great product, but no clear ICP → everyone’s “a fit,” so no one really is
- No value in messages → buyers don’t care 
- Good messaging, but wrong channel → you’re explaining value where your prospects aren’t paying attention

You can check Rippling, Drift, Gorgias, and many more companies

Your real moat isn’t the product…..

It’s how consistently (!) you can reach the right prospects at the right moment.

Distribution is most important
(on email, on ads, on cold email).

Be #ATOM

Always Be Top Of Mind

Where it makes sense & wherever you can

I launched 12 campaigns before realizing I was doing it backwards

The thing is, I kept starting with tactics when I should've started with structure

So here's what works when you're building a multi channel GTM campaign…

1. Audience & Triggers 

Figure out who you're talking to and when they're paying attention. 

2. Messaging Angles 

Write the story that stops them mid scroll. They need to relate with your message

3. Channel Mix 

Meet buyers where they usually hang out. 
LinkedIn + email + ads only work if your audience is there

4. Execution Rhythm 

Map the timing so it feels natural, not like you're screaming into every channel at once 👀

5. Impact Review 

Look at what worked and what flopped, coz that’s the point where you learn and get better

Pretty basic but make big changes in your campaign results

I made this cheatsheet so you don't have to learn it the hard way like I did 👇

Btw, do you plan campaigns step-by-step or just dive in?

Does your LinkedIn outreach feel like a never ending juggling act?

You’ve got Slack, Clay, Instantly, and a bunch of other tools running, but they don’t always play nice together. 😅

It’s easy to feel like you’re constantly switching between apps, trying to keep everything in sync 

But the reality is, you're losing time and missing opportunities in the process.

Now, with all these integrations working together seamlessly, everything just clicks.

Aimfox has my back.

No more headaches from jumping between platforms.

When everything works together, it’s like a smooth-running operation. 

I can focus on what I do best 

building real connections instead of battling with tech. And honestly, that feels like a superpower. 😎

When I started doing outbound, I thought more leads would bring better results

I'd export massive lists, send countless emails, and wait for replies

Most of the time, it never worked

Then I learned the hard way that I had to reach out to the right people instead of more people

I was spending hours every week chasing leads that were never going to convert

Had to change that, so I stopped obsessing over quantity and started caring about data quality

- Accurate emails 
- Verified contact info
- Actual decision makers

Started building a workflow around tools that actually delivered clean data.

Prospeo.io helped me with better email finding, and I could finally focus on leads that actually mattered..

That one modification changed my entire approach to outbound

So, if you're still in the guessing phase, I totally get it.

I was there too…. for way too long. 😅

But once you experience what it's like to work with quality data, there's no going back

Your outreach gets sharper, and your replies get better

P.S. If your lead list feels overwhelming or your bounce rate is increasing,it might be time to rethink your data sources. just saying. 😉

I replied to only 1 out of 50 personalized messages I got last month

You know why that one message was different?

It was talking about the problem I actually had.

the other 49? same tired playbook:

- loved your recent post!
- saw you're hiring!
- big fan of your work!

I know these messages took effort.

Someone looked at my profile.
someone tried to find a hook.
someone hit send hoping for a reply.

But effort doesn’t create relevance

and that's the reason why most outreach falls apart

Dropping my name or mentioning my company isn't personalization

Real personalization comes when someone shows they understand the real problem

Not just surface-level stuff anyone could find in 10 seconds.

👇 peep the graphic for 11 messages that feel personal but really aren't

The fix is better questions

→ what problem might they actually have right now?
→ how could I genuinely help?

answer those first. then hit send 😉

p.s. if you wouldn't reply to your own message, your prospect won't either.

Every B2B deal has 6 people you need to win over

Have you been in a situation when:

The Champion is excited, pushing it internally, everything's moving... and then it just dies. 😅

Happened to me too many times before I figured it out

I was only talking to The Champion

But while they were selling for me, there were 5 other people I completely missed:

So I started mapping out who's who in every deal.

Added those 6 people on visuals

Once I started paying attention, deals became way less confusing.

I could anticipate objections and address the right concerns for each person.

Because you're not selling to one person, you're navigating a whole committee.

We used to start every day putting out fires.

Slack pinging, campaigns underperforming, and by 6 PM, we'd wonder:

"wait, what did we actually do today?" 😅

So we built a simple morning routine

90 minutes, same time every day.

Review the important things → decide what to fix → tell the team what to do.

That's it.

This is what we check:

→ pipeline health
→ outbound performance
→ ICP drift (are we still talking to the right people?)
→ buying signals (who's ready to talk now?)
→ sequence copy
→ meeting quality (are we booking real opportunities?)

Then we pick the top 5 things that worked today.

and we tell the team in one Slack message.

done.

It's not perfect, but it keeps us from drowning in reactive work.

Is your morning routine anything similar? 😀

Got a BDR team but struggling to get results from cold calling? Here’s the situation:

- No dedicated resources to cold call
- BDRs haven’t cold-called yet and AEs are swamped
- Already cold calling, but can't systematize because RevOps is overloaded

We help by running automated outbound for BDR teams while also focusing on Tier 1 accounts with personalized messaging.

Here’s how we do it with Growth Today:

→ We pull audiences from all GTM initiatives:

     - Handraisers 🙋‍♂️, leads who responded but didn’t convert, app installs,        dead leads, cold audiences

→ Auto-generate tasks for BDRs:

   - Programmatic leads → Our BDRs cold call
   - Tier 1 accounts → Your BDRs cold call

→ We integrate with SDRs to optimize the process and drive enterprise deals

Here’s how we set it up:

→ Sync Instantly data to HubSpot (or Salesloft/Outreach for Tier 1)
→ Pull data from HubSpot/SFDC, enrich with Clay
→ Maximize phone numbers with services like Forager, Prospeo.io and                  LeadMagic
→ Update/Create contacts with fresh data
→ Push contacts to Orum 🥇 to automate cold calling

And the best part :

We summarize everything into a cold call opener, so your BDRs don’t need to read through 50 fields.

Next post: I’ll share cold call opener results ...hit 🔔 on my profile for updates.

P.S.:

If your BDRs need support or you want to systematize cold calling for Tier 1 accounts, DM me!

Your best email insights aren’t in your CRM, they’re in your prospect’s context

I have seen few teams personalizing with whatever data is easiest to grab

Titles, Locations… maybe a LinkedIn mention if they’re feeling fancy. 😅

But the best way is to look beyond the fields in your CRM

The tiny clues that tell you:

“Hey, this person might actually care about what you’re saying.”

We pulled together 10 relevance cues you can use today, including:

- Role pains
- Timing triggers
- Intent signals
- Tech gaps
- micro-segments
- human insight

All the good stuff you wish your CRM captured.

None of this is hard

Start with one signal.

Test it.

See how people respond when the email finally feels like it was written for them, not at them.

And if you already personalize this way, I’d love to hear what signals work best for you. 🙋🏻‍♀️

SaaS companies don’t buy the way we think they do.

(probably you already know this)

You email one person. They like it…. They even agree with it. But they’re not the ones deciding 😅 

Or they need to check with someone else. Or they forward it internally…

…and then it gets passed around internally.

SaaS decisions usually involve more than one person.

Those decisions usually live across teams.

Different people, different priorities.

Founders look at the big picture. Sales looks at the pipeline. RevOps cares about process. 

Tech worries about scalability, products, the roadmap, yada yada.

Everyone’s looking at the same challenge. Just from a different angle. 👀 

This is where a lot of GTM motions stop making sense.

When everything is aimed at one person, and we wait for a yes, we’re oversimplifying how SaaS actually buys.

What changed for me was thinking through:

Who else is involved? Who else influences the decision? Who else also needs to feel confident before anything moves?

That’s also why tools like saasyDB are useful in practice.

You can get the whole buying committee from a very accurate and simple Saas database

& loop them pre or post-sales as you’d like!

One company + whole buying committee = for 1 credit 💪 

If you haven’t tried out SassyDB and you’re targeting SaaS, do it. super easy to use and accurate, fresh database 🥁 ✌
