Scale Your SaaS 187: A Different Perspective on Prospecting and Sales - with Nelson Guilliat
EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode of SaaS-Story in the Making, Matt Wolach interviews Nelson Gilliat, the CEO of Buyer Centric Revenue and the author of The Death of the SDR: And the Birth of Buyer Centric Revenue. Nelson presents a different perspective on prospecting sales. With an alternative model called the Buyer Centric Revenue model, all marketing is inbound.
Nelson shares how this unique perspective on sales can effectively liberate marketers and sellers from the usual sales models like the Predictable Revenue. There will be no buyer handoffs via sales assembly, no commissions in favor of a salary, and no more short-term quotas. His new approach can set up businesses for success.
