Riya M. I like the top 100 approach. Also consider a 7-day sprint, Hormozi-style campaign. Your first run isn't as much about signing clients (but you will most likely), it's about engaging with your audience and learning what works, pain resonance, etc. I have a prompt I built for a client a year ago it went really well… prompt helps build the plan and assets etc. Don't forget your LinkedIn profile is premium marketing landing page not a resume. Do a 7 day campaign, learn, do another 45-days later. Great way to break into the market.

Absolutely Jonathan B. let me know how I can help

Jonathan B. exactly. Yes I do interviews fairly often. I too advise various clients on partnerships - too often partners are seen as easy revenue but in reality it's onboarding, management, sales enablement, accountability etc etc. Partner/culture fit is key. I've been training a few clients on JTBD interviews which is invaluable if done right. I also conduct interviews on behalf of clients and or lead or sit in with them.

Jordan I've done a couple of these. Depending on budget, use little FedEx or similar boxes over just the postcard. Add a QR code to a dedicated landing page or some way to track web hits - or some way to measure ROI. Also, personalize as much as possible - gatekeepers (EAs) will be less inclined to put on bosses desk if it screams mass mailer (assume they have authority to open). Give them a reason to take action, track it, good luck.

Tejasvi (. your system needs to be very dynamic. Your success is dependent on the assumption their data is actually usable to achieve the desired outcome, problem/solution fit, language/market fit, etc. hornets nest. Because this is a new offer, I would ladder the offer to get early adoption. There are apps now that do the CRM mining and reporting. Consider niching down and get tight on UVP as we’re all getting 5 offers a day promising similar stuff - thus trust is your biggest competitor. Hope this helps

Why not just run a customer interview campaign (part of market/customer development)? If you have customers, run JTBD interviews. There are good apps/platforms for real customer engagement/surveys. Jump on Reddit (or scrape - even better) to find out where your target audience hangs out and what they're talking about. Sourcing partners in same market is time consuming and ROI is hard to come by for a multitude of reasons most notably bc they will be hesitant to share market intel, could be working with competitors, can't be trusted to not share sensitive info, or could be just bad actors.

I've had inside reps making 6-figures, ~70/30 split comm/base when in enterprise sales. Inside sales live on variable so i would be surprised if you didn't ask for a commission + accelerator. The fact that this job doesn't have that baked into the comp plan makes me think the title is not aligned to the actual role. I would walk away from this one. And for you I would say know your value and don't give discounts. Good luck

edwin191 what stage is your platform (pre-market, seed, …)? Do you have playbooks? SDRs are most typically there to scale what works or follow a structured test plan. Trying to understand current state to better respond

Kishore D. agreed with the above. Too early for big research firms (unless deep pockets). Before product hunt I would make sure you clearly validated language/market fit + best channel(s). Then product hunt and a daily multi channel push with feedback loops and a funnel promo always driving to ph. I have a good framework specific to ph happy to dig it out of the archive.

The shipper is as important as the content. Little FedEx boxes, UPS envelopes etc have estimated 98% open rates. Good strategies include QRs with utm tracking, the swag if any matters too. Old school analog right now may be great timing. Look forward to hearing how it goes
