Sales Specialist

Troy Munson

This pisses me off. 

My friend signed an offer: $330K. 

OTE of course. 
 
It's one of those nightmare stories. 

My best friend accepted an enterprise sales role for $330k OTE. 

Several months in, he said “3 reps out of 50 hit quota they’re planning to hire 30 more reps in the next 12 months”

They closed 3 funding rounds in 12 months so they HAD to scale headcount. 

BUT THIS SHIT IS MIND BOGGLING?!?!?! 

How do you plan to make any seller happy with attainment like this?

It’s SO easy to get blinded by high OTEs. 

I fell into this trap before. Never again.

Here are all the companies that will trap you into stuff like this, and companies where you will actually hit quota: https://lnkd.in/de3-Q4FJ

7 days ago i made a tiktok account

today i have 478k views, 2,500+ followers, and 18.4k likes...

i imagine this will make $1-4k/mo in 3 months. 

so what's the tiktok about?

i review chicken wings

on a hunt to find THE BEST chicken wings in wisconsin

and documenting it all. 

here's my plan for it: 
- for lunch + on weekends go to tons of wing places
- make a video review 
- collect emails for people wanting wings recs 
- take the transcript, turn it into a detailed review for a newsletter
- get ad placements for restaurants + wing companies 
- make passive income all from eating food 

i'm building this all on beehiiv.. 

the site, the newsletter, the email strategy, the ad placements.. all with beehiiv.

this makes it to where i don't have to spend much time at all on email acquisition + monetization 

i've already had 4 wing restaurants offer free wings for a review. 

who doesn't like free food? 

it took me 1 minute to think of "i want to eat food for money" then about 2 minutes to create a new email, create the tiktok account, and start posting about it. 



remember, there's a shit ton of opportunity out there. 

you just gotta create it.

CEO @ Dimmo - The Trusted GTM Tech Partner. | Host of Two Dads in Tech on All Podcast Platforms

texted Travis (met him on LinkedIn) 

said let’s run, but I forgot my running shoes.. 

zero excuse there 

but you still gotta get it in so we did a lift instead 

he wasn’t as strong as I thought 

strong heart tho 

go meet good ppl

No alternative text description for this image

i f-cked up when I started posting on LinkedIn.

i thought I was doing it right.. 

i wasn’t..

if you're familiar with LinkedIn creators, you know Justin Welsh.

a linkedin icon who makes it seem possible for anyone to make millions by posting.

back then, he made a post at 8:15am ET every morning.

at 8:14am I sat on his page and when the clock hit 8:15, i would refresh and immediately comment.

i got around 50 likes for every comment and started getting 10-20 followers a day.

OMG MOM im getting famous!!!!

nahhh, wrong.

almost every person that followed me didn't give a shit about me, what i was posting, or anything but a follow back

they didn't care about prospecting.
they didn't care about tech sales.

they cared about their follower count.

i was in a routine of gaining followers, not building a network.

once I realized how dumb I felt by having "inflated" numbers, i immediately stopped. (around 6k followers)

so how did I start gaining momentum?

1. i kept posting things about sales.
2. and posted more and more about sales .
3. tons of engagement. burnt out 4 times in 18 months.
4. i gave without expecting anything in return.
5. the more i wrote, the better my writing got. 
6. i changed how i created content. i stopped posting "how to" and started posting "how i" content. stuff chatgpt can't come up with

i posted 2x a day for almost 365 days straight.

3 years later, i still post almost 2x every day (except weekends). 

that's when things started clicking.

realized it came down to 3 things:
- consistency
- repeating the same message different ways
- quality content

my recommendation: 
- post a lot
- create a compelling hook
- truly believe in what you're posting
- only engage with people you'd want to sit down and have lunch with.
- or a beer with lol

everyone should read this

doesn’t matter your job title 





your time is limited. 

make the most.

cold calling is the best way to book meetings 

if you don't agree

you're prob not cold calling.

my team and myself personally will cold call for you. 

and prove it. 

dm me

i make it incredibly hard to talk to me

to talk to me you need to: 

- fill out a form thats not simple
- share your tech stack
- explain challenges 
- and be transparent about your pain

then from there, you need to dedicate an hour of calendar time after the form. 

its not simple. 

on purpose. 

i do one hour long conversations doing a deep walkthrough of a company's tech stack and challenges. 

and a handful of companies aren't a good fit. 

thats' why i make it hard.

to save you time, and myself. 

my recommendations (at no cost) can either save you 5-6 figures in tech spend or significantly increase revenue efficiency.

if it sounds helpful, book a tech stack audit: https://lnkd.in/d7fu4nSG

was on a call with 4 SaaS CEO's yesterday

here's what's working in outbound for us: 

cold calls (if you're doing it) 

and one off manual emails. 

we all have complex AI workflows set up 

we're all doing what linkedin shoves down your throat

but at the end of the day 

it's manually reaching out. 

one CEO said "my founding AE switched to manual emails this week and has booked double the meetings" 



counterintuitive with all the advice you see on here

food for thought.

Me: “This discount ends at the end of the quarter” 

Also me:

just signed up for a 401k. 

lil nervous, will be my longest run yet.

Sachee Katre 👾 is hands down the best prospector i know..

she's insanely creative, she does genuine research, and she makes it extremely easy to work with her. 

started working with her and LoopLabs Co  about a year ago to edit the entire two dads in tech podcast & create short form clips. 

they've been amazing to work with and very understanding (like when i send them a 1 hour podcast recording that needs to go live in 8 hours, they get it done)

but don't do that ^ 

horrible practice and that falls on daniel and i. 

anyways, will continue to use them for video editing + podcast editing for anything moving forward. 

<3

use linkedin, meet good people, become friends. see you monday Travis

graphical user interface, text, application, chat or text message

I built 4 side hustles. 2 were acquired & 1 got funding which I now run full time. Here's my honest thought about building a side hustle:

They will more than likely hurt your performance at work.

And depending on how successful the side gig is, it will definitely hurt your performance. 

Now, some of this depends on what it is. 

I think side gigs can be really fruitful and "easy" if it's a course or anything that you stand up once and don't really have to touch.

But most things outside of that..

Massive chance it'll screw up your W2 performance. 

Especially if your passion is in the side gig, which for most aspiring entrepreneurs, it is..

For me I built: 
→ Softleap: prospecting training for startups (this was really time consuming) 
→ Vocul: business professional only fans (acquired & required lots of attention) 
→ Refurl: B2B SaaS (was doing well but it was a full SaaS platform so you needed to do onboarding, selling, fix bugs, etc..)
→ Dimmo: Software marketplace which I'm running now full time (because i was focusing so much time on it) 


Every. 
Single. 
Time. 

that I started to get traction/customers for the side gigs, much of my focus would immediately go there and be taken away from my W2.

I know its not only me.

I've talked to many side-gig founders and they're in the same boat. 

They're hoping the side gig gets big enough to where they can leave and go full-time. 

It's just the truth that most aspiring entrepreneurs don't want to admit. 

Agree? 

Disagree? 

Let's hear it.

my biggest red flag is that cash feels like free money.. does that make sense?

Cold emails. 
Cold calling. 
Video prospecting. 
Social selling. 
GTM Workflows. 
Go-to-network.
Gifting. 

Every single one of these methods will help you generate pipeline if you do it right. 

The problem is, finding which tool is best for your business.

Here is software for each of those that can hellp:

Cold emails: https://lnkd.in/d3ExMcQY
Cold calling: https://lnkd.in/dGiYRjCk
Video prospecting: https://lnkd.in/dNyj3r-B
Social selling: https://lnkd.in/dtJ8p6ZC
GTM Workflows: https://lnkd.in/d6yJtY3W
Go-to-network: https://lnkd.in/d62x57dw
Gifting: https://lnkd.in/dRw6_ZJy

Now, comes the next issue: 

You have too many tools. 
Your focus is in too many places. 

I use 3 channels to book 5-7 net new meetings a week:
- LinkedIn
- Cold calling
- Cold email

With most of my focus in cold call and linkedin. 

Also, the links above push you to software, which you probably have too many tools already. 

In one call, I can tell you where your stack is falling short. 

I can tell you where you can increase efficiency. 

And I can tell you what you're overspending one. 

If you want, click this (https://lnkd.in/d7fu4nSG) you can do a lightweight tech stack assessment where I send you recommendations via email. 

Or a full tech stack audit where we do a deep dive for an hour.

sales leaders

hell, even revops leaders

don't know what they don't know

they go through sales cycles

believe they're getting tools that work best for their biz

they spend months implementing it

then dont hear from CS until renewal time

and they're scratching their heads trying to find out the ROI

that's literally why I'm doing what I'm doing at Dimmo

a 3rd party

that knows more about GTM tech than most (built a marketplace of over 300+ GTM tools) 

to tell you what to look out for and what actually works for your business

want advice on your stack?

let me know

YO CHICAGO... anyone want to run a half marathon before the year end just because? end on a strong note? im thinking any time from Dec 17-19.  then maybe grab a nice dinner afterwards?

Cheatsheet: How to use Demand Gen campaigns for B2B SaaS.

A tactic that now outperforms Search in many accounts.

Google Ads for B2B SaaS companies | Founder at Grouts Online | Book a call to cut wasted spend & scale pipeline → best for $20K+/mo budgets

Demand Gen campaign just generated a $24,000 closed-won deal from $2.8K in ad spend for a B2B SaaS.


Cold audience.

Discovery placement.

Attributed directly in HubSpot.


People overlook Demand Gen because it seems too top-of-funnel.

But this is exactly why it works.


It reaches your ICP before they search.

It builds familiarity.

And it drives incremental demos from in-market buyers that search alone can’t capture.


Here is the exact setup behind this result:

- In-market audience relevant to the industry
- 1-minute animated product intro walkthrough
- Max. conversion bidding w/ min. $50/day budget
- Traffic sent to a conversion-focused landing page
- Keeping the learning phase stable.


Demand Gen is not replacing Search.

It expands your funnel and adds a new layer on top.

And supports the search results because people recognize your brand.


---


If you want a system that consistently drives pipeline, send me a DM and we can discuss how I help B2B SaaS marketers grow qualified demos from Google Ads

Scaling Google Ads from 0 to $30K/month to drive demos isn’t about growth hacks.

It’s about what you do every week to move closer to pipeline growth.

At a high level:
- Test 1–2 new keyword angles and expand coverage
- Analyze ad copy and test new angles across responsive ads
- Improve landing pages for conversion (message match, speed, clarity)
- Keep targeting clean with exclusions and pause keywords wasting spend
- Monitor pacing and spend to stay within efficiency targets
- Review performance for leading indicators (MQL, SQL, Opp)

Once the foundations are solid, expand your reach:
- Retargeting to reinforce messaging
- Demand Gen for reach and performance
- YouTube for awareness

Scaling isn’t about doing more.

It’s about consistent, structured action tied to pipeline goals.

When the work gets boring, you still have to keep going.


You signed up for that when you chose to build your own business or consultancy.


In the beginning, everything is new and exciting.

You feel momentum, and every win feels big.


Then the routine hits.

Some days feel the same.
Some weeks are just execution.
You work solo most days.

It gets boring.

And that is exactly where most people get distracted.

They start something new, change direction, or give up too early.


The truth is simple.

Boring work is what compounds.

Boring work is what builds a business.

Boring work is what keeps clients and creates results.



The boring work is usually the work that moves you forward.

You just have to stay long enough to see it.

This is a nightmare for a performance marketer.

(the last one is the worst)


Here are 5 examples of a messy user journey in B2B SaaS:


1/ The website has 3–5 different CTAs and contact forms. Each form has 6–10 fields.

If it is confusing to you, users will not know what to do either.


2/ Other CTAs promote content downloads and gated case studies.

The goal is demos, but people get too many options and reasons to submit other forms instead.


3/ The website has a global ribbon promoting webinars or content.

It drives attention away and hurts conversion rates.


4/ Stages in HubSpot do not get updated correctly.

The sales funnel is well defined on paper, but the CRM does not reflect it. And you can't optimize towards the right stages.


5/ Source attribution is missing or incomplete.

Leads come into the CRM without a source. Or the source does not get passed to the deal property. 

You run blind on what actually contributes to the pipeline.


Ads do not save a broken journey.

They only amplify what is already there.


Make sure you solve these bottlenecks to unlock better results.

A brand can generate $693,000 in qualified pipeline in 3 months with $37,000 in Google Ads spend.

While others struggle to convert leads, no matter the budget.


That’s when ads boost organic growth for a winning brand with market fit.


Ads are often seen as the solution to drive growth.

But when they’re not working, it’s usually not the ads themselves.


Even if you do everything right, it’s hard to make it work.

It’s more expensive. 

Everything takes longer.


But when you have strong organic momentum, ads accelerate growth.

With much better unit economics, which allows you to spend even more.

And this allows you to outspend the competition.


It’s not that ads don’t work.

They just amplify what is already there.


PS: If you are a B2B SaaS brand with strong organic momentum and want to scale ads, DM me, and we can chat.

Here are 40 exact steps on how I started a business 4 years ago.

- Documented processes & Set-up more automations
- Keep building foundations to make progress and eventually scale
- Do better work & work less (with less stress for more money)

There are other events that shaped my progress.

And these are some key highlights from the journey.

What is your journey?

B2B SaaS brands miss a huge opportunity to tell people what they actually do.


They create product videos that get buried. 

They put them on the homepage and that’s it.


But you can use these videos to tell your story across multiple channels.


B2B SaaS solutions are complex.

A good 2–3 minute product explainer can highlight the problem you solve, who you solve it for, and how.

It can speak for your sales team and website, and do it consistently.


Here are the best ways to distribute your product video:

1/ Landing pages / Website

- This is where it ends for most companies. 

Only people who already visit your site can see it.

2/  LinkedIn Ads / Social

- Show your product and your message to the most relevant people. 

Use it for cold audiences to build a warm retargeting pool.

3/ Google Demand Gen

- Distribute it on YouTube to broader audiences. 

Let the algorithm find users who are most likely to convert.


You can start with $10/day and get it in front of thousands of people.


Your product video already tells the story.

Paid ads make sure the right people hear it.

Google reps are very well-trained salespeople.

The way they recommend features is always interesting.

And when you push back, you often get the same line:
“I wouldn’t recommend it if I didn’t know it works. Why don’t you want me to help you succeed?”

Recommendation from Google rep:
- Turn on AI Max for this campaign so Google finds queries that are valuable to you
- Add broad match to use the full power of AI and not limit yourself
- Enable audience expansion because Google is smarter

The problem is simple.


These features work great.

When your account is clean, structured, and already converting.


But it's not always the case.

Often, the account isn't even ready for that, and it's not a fit for the segment.

And when these foundations aren’t there, they make everything worse.


Reps push what ticks their internal boxes and KPIs.

Your job is to protect your results.
