Episode Description from the Publisher

Admitting your company needs sales leadership is one of the hardest calls a founder makes, and one of the smartest. Duff Tucker walks you through seven critical signs that your company has outgrown founder-led sales, from reps getting check-ins instead of real coaching to a forecast that's become a guess instead of a weekly discipline. Duff breaks down what each sign actually looks like and how to spot it in your own company. Showing even one of the seven warning signs is reason enough to consider bringing on a fractional sales leader.🖋️ Read When to Hire a Fractional Sales Leader: 7 Signs Your Company is Ready🧑‍💼 Learn more about Sales Gravy’s Fractional Sales Leadership Solutions💻 Enroll in Sales Gravy University Courses with Duff Tucker🔗 Follow us on LinkedIn!Our Sponsors:* Check out Plaud AI and use my code JEB for a great deal: https://www.plaud.ai/jeb* Check out TruDiagnostic and use my code SALESGRAVY for 20% off your entire order: https://www.trudiagnostic.com* Go to https://OmahaSteaks.com and use promo code BEEF at checkout for $35 off.
