In this episode, they unpack the modern outbound motion they're building at CoachPilot — how they monitor 2,200 companies in real time, narrow their active prospect list down to 292 trigger-based targets, and why a col...

According to Salesforce, 60% of a sales rep's time is not spent selling. If you've got someone on $200K, a significant portion of that salary is going to admin — not revenue.

In this episode, Dave, Regan, and Luigi break down what world-clas...
