From founder-led to fortune; revolutionising B2B Software Sales for scalability
Join us to tackle one of the most critical challenges facing the founders of B2B software companies: transitioning from founder-led sales during the “start-up” stage, to scalable sales strategies during the “scale-up” phase of growth.
Typically, founders are the best salespeople in a B2B software company. During the early stages of their company's journey, founders should lead sales efforts, leveraging their vision, passion, and personal networks to drive revenue. However, as the company grows and scales, this founder-centric approach becomes unsustainable, requiring a shift towards structured sales processes, empowered sales teams, and robust systems.
Our roundtable discussion will delve into the nuances of this transition, exploring the strategies, best practices, and challenges associated with evolving from a founder-led sales model to a scalable sales engine.
