BC Startup Sales Podcast - Evolving Your Sales Tech Stack with Oleg Campbell (Reply.io)

This week we had Oleg Campbell, Founder and CEO of Reply.io, join the Bowery Capital Startup Sales Podcast to discuss "Evolving Your Sales Tech Stack."

Here are some of the main questions and ideas we discussed in the podcast:

1. Let's go through each company stage and talk about best practices when it comes to sales tech stacks, what good looks like, what you typically recommend, some common mistakes that you see, and we can see where the conversation takes us. What do you typically recommend when companies are just starting out?

2. Common pitfalls or mistakes to avoid for this stage?

3. What has worked well for you all as you've gone from those early days to where you are now? Did you go with a full-cycle Renaissance rep approach or did you go for the SDR/AE split right from the beginning?

4. So you've got a lightweight CRM and probably don't need anything for lead scoring. What other tools are important at this point?

5. As we think about this next stage of growth, right now you've got your bare bones CRM and some kind of prospecting tool. You've got a tool that's helping automate your outreach. Maybe you're using something for kind of marketing and content or you have some lightweight kind of CMS. What's the next level up as you continue to grow?

6. We've touched on the data enrichment, we've touched on lead scoring. Hopefully by now you've got that engine humming and more leads coming in. Let's talk about other parts of the stack. What else do you typically see in this stage?

7. What about on the customer success side of things? What tools have you seen work well there?
