If you’re a leader in a high-growth tech sector, you’ve probably heard the phrase “unicorn company.” It’s the dream of any tech startup – to reach a valuation of $1 billion without an IPO. But what do companies in this coveted spot have that puts them so far ahead of the competition? Conventional wisdom points to a great product, but we know that’s not the whole story.

So the other day Colin Cadmus, who was VP of Sales at Aircall, summarized a career question I’ve thought about many times over the past 10+ years. If you are a great AE, a great sales exec … I know you might want “more” … but is it really better to be a VP of Sales? I’ve met with so many ambitious AEs over the years who wanted to make the jump straight to VP or “Head of” Sales.

The sales management activities that we are performing today are creating the results we are achieving today. Many or few, consistent or irregular, planned or impromptu, the behaviors and activities that we, as sales managers, use to motivate, train and hold our relationship managers accountable are at least partly responsible for the success of those we manage.

For four straight years, Salesforce has found that over 75% of buyers want sellers to always act as a trusted advisor. On top of that, they want sellers to meet them “wherever” they are. That’s a lot of pressure to add on top of economic uncertainty and rising quota. How can a salesperson meet all of these standards while also enjoying what they do?

We need to develop a deeper understanding of the value creation/realization process. Too many sellers tend to think about value creation as something sellers create “for” customers. Sellers focus on the value customers receive in the implementation of their solution, or “value realization.” Sellers focus, often using sophisticated analytic tools, on the return customers would get in implementation.

Dear SaaStr: What’s a Good Benchmark for B2B Sales Cycles? To overgeneralize, but to give you a pretty rough sense: Sales cycles are very much impacted by the intent of the prospect. Intent varies from High Probability / Intent Opportunities (“I Need to Buy Now” — this exploded during the pandemic) to Very Low Intent and Probability, and this is important to factor in, especially during the earlier days when you’re not as strong as lead scoring and lead management.
