You raised the capital. Now comes the harder question: can your sales organization deliver the growth story behind it?
In this episode of The Sales Reality Check, Heather and Jen follow Sales through the funding journey:
Pre-Seed: Can we sell it?
Seed: Can someone besides the founder sell it?
Series A: Can we sell it predictably?
Series B: Can we scale it?
Series C+: Can we optimize it?
We dig into founder dependency, repeatable sales processes, qualification, pipeline discipline, forecasting and what needs to happen before a company starts adding sellers and expecting scale.
Because raising capital can accelerate growth—but it can’t create a sales process that doesn’t exist.
