A day in the life of an SDR:
Start the day with a coffee and sales stand-up meeting, discussing daily and weekly goals with the team. It's always good to verbalise the plan for the day. First prospecting call of the day is imminent, time to understand the potential customer's needs that marketing has helped cultivate and solve their pains with the software. They are a good fit for Avrios, so you hand them over to your Account Executive. The phone rings it’s Mr. X who checked out our website. He would like to learn more about our pricing. The day continues with several prospecting calls and follow ups from yesterday. There are still a few email responses from prospects dripping into your inbox, so you work through these as you go. Towards the evening, it makes no sense to call anymore, so you prepare for tomorrow. Who else would be a good fit for us? You discuss it with marketing and set up tomorrow's campaign.
