The SMB reality SMB sales teams need speed, focus, and cash-efficient execution. Too many channels too early creates distraction and poor conversion quality.

30-30-30 plan First 30 days: define ICP and outreach assets. Next 30: run outbound and partnerships in parallel. Final 30: optimize qualification and close process.

Section

Channel priorities Start with two core channels: outbound email/LinkedIn and referral-led outreach. Add content-assisted inbound only after message-market fit.

Section

Qualification discipline Do not accept all meetings as pipeline. Apply strict qualification criteria to protect AE time and improve forecast quality.

Section

What to track weekly Meetings booked, show rate, SQL rate, proposal rate, and time-to-next-step. Weekly trend quality matters more than one-off spikes.
