Notable Quotes:
“This is also why I went into a people business because I want to provide people a good job where they can learn and grow. So I’m not necessarily in this to just make a boatload of money. It’s also the social aspect and enjoying working with people. I’m big on building good culture in the company, so it’s a high priority for me to treat people well give everybody a good experience.”
– David Henzel

So you’ve heard about outsourcing SDRs and maybe you’re a bit wary of how the whole thing works. But just imagine—your in-house SDR team doesn’t have to scrape through LinkedIn just to find leads. They can just sit back, have leads given to them, and put their time into the higher-value activities like outreaching and closing those deals!
