This company just raised $120M to create Real Milk without cows.

Some of you know that i founded a B2B Sushi and Catering company in Silicon Valley and was an advisor for the largest biotech accelerator, IndieBio , so this topic is very personal to me.
I was there when UPSIDE Foods were just 3 people and spoke to Uma Valeti, MD about the benefits of making sure that Cell Agriculture would be available to the Kosher and Hallal consumer.
Speaking with Jason, I got the same feeling again.
You are witnessing the beginning of something great.
It happened to be that we recorded two weeks before the new investment round, so I guess the feeling was correct. -

"2020 was the year of SDR, 2021 is the year of SDR managers."- Michael Schaaf
I sat down with Michael Schaaf who has built out the SDR team at Browsi, an Ad-Tech start-up that recently raised $11M.
If you are an SDR looking to understand how successful sales teams are run or a manager looking to improve your craft this conversation is filled with practical takeaways.
💎"- At the beginning of the day, create an accountability circle where each SDR shares his commitment for the day.
💎 Leaders eat last- Make sure that you don't ask a BDR to do something you have not or would not do yourself
💎 Powerhour- Start cold calling together. Go around with each rep making a few dials and share the call live with the team when the call connects.
💎 Make sure that each rep has a data-driven approach where they have clarity on how many accounts need to be worked on and what actions need to be taken to hit their goal.

Don't think like a sales team. Think like a REVENUE team and align all Marketing, Sales, Customer success, as they are all part of the revenue generation and should have the same goal!
Try to do fewer operational tasks and keep yourself focused on customer-facing time. Revenue Operations should handle the operational tasks.

Many companies can offer the best possible package for you in terms of salary and benefits. However, not all of them will fit you, and you won’t fit with all of them too. As a job seeker, you should look for a company that offers you not just the best package but also the best environment for career growth. How can you tell if a company has these two things? You should ask specific questions that allow you to know the company even if you’re still an applicant.
Join me in this episode and learn from our guest, Hilton Burke, what those questions are and why we should build our personal brand--both on paper and in real life.
