Episode notes
Use A Martini Glass Funnel To Pick Targets
- Narrow each rep's focus into a martini-glass funnel: concentrate deep effort on 10–15 accounts rather than shallow coverage of hundreds.
- Clara recommends using closed-won data (industry, size, funding, personas) to pick those high-probability accounts.
Run Quick ICP Analysis With AI
- Use AI to analyze your closed-won and closed-lost deals and surface ICP patterns in under an hour.
- Jason says conversational intelligence and LLM prompts can reveal who buys and which personas to prioritize without waiting on RevOps.
iHeart Found Success By Vertically Focusing Reps
- iHeart shifted reps to specialize in a top-two category and sub-verticals (example: roofing inside home improvement) to boost relevance.
- Amanda emphasizes genuine interest plus performance data drives authenticity and better results for reps.
