A Typical First Day in a B2B Tech Company

A B2B tech team walks through their first day together, discussing marketing and sales metrics, who does what, and pipeline goals. No Dave Gerhardt.
Before we jump in, I want to introduce you to Tim. He's gonna be joining us on the growth team. How's it going, everyone? You got the swag pack, right? Yeah, yeah, yeah, I did. Thank you. Thank you. Perfect marking. How are we pacing doing? Good. MQLs, SQLs sales and SQLs. Real good. Does that include the Dark Social numbers? No, that was just dark Funnel mops. Can you get that? We're on it. Got the Neymar, Latam and AMIA numbers. Just waiting on APAC. Always waiting on APAC. Marking. What's going on with the SALs. SALs and MAOs are all down. Even LMFAOs. Really? Just got to figure out those SLAs. Well, what's going on? The SLAs? I thought we moved BDRs under demand gen. Sorry, I could have swore. BDRs are under legion now. No legion. You're getting the SDRs to help out with ABM. Just a reminder, we have fully moved from ABM to abx. No one cares. Abm. Hey, Perry. You're not muted. Sorry. Sorry. Great job. This quarter we hit our goal of 10 million in pipeline. Next quarter, our goal is 52.7 million. Yeah, it makes sense, actually. Not that bad. A little confused. How does that make sense? Such a noob.
