In this episode, James Gasteen is joined by Carl Carell, CRO and Co-Founder of GetAccept. GetAccept is a digital sales room platform and graduate of the Winter 2016 cohort of Y-Combinator.
Carl shares insights on acquiring the first few customers, transitioning from founder-led sales to employee-led sales, and evolving the ideal customer profile (ICP) over time. They also explore strategies for building a strong relationship with Salesforce and leveraging the Salesforce community to generate demand and awareness. Carl's advice for himself nine years ago is to hire Salesforce developers internally earlier.
