Slug: focus-on-quality-of-work-vs-quantity
Focusing on quantity to hit activity KPIs leads to below par, generic SDR and Sales touchpoints.
Focusing on quality differentiates yourself from the mass of Sales, and establishes yourself as a trusted and insightful business partner.
Ultimately hitting Sales activity KPIs is irrelevant - only meetings/deals on the board count.
Disqualifying is critical, and more often than not leads to the prospect (re)qualifying themselves (see RFP methodology where declining to participate, with a good articulation and positioning, can lead to obtaining a different status in the RFP race)
Thinking beyond the client's requests and providing insights not asked for but relevant.
