Everybody talks about innovative products. Innovative sales & marketing is ignored
We have made inroads into accounts like Dell, Yahoo, Walmart & Google and it all started with tracking big guns at these organizations attending conferences, getting their phone numbers from conference organizers, calling up & requesting a meeting at venue – also to mention an innovative pitch. Definitely could not have been done by a sales ace to start with but definitely something we can teach a sales guy to replicate
Bottom line – if the founding team does it themselves its easy to build a scalable process
