#349 - How to Navigate Firing, Hiring, and PIPs as a Leader (Ken Amar, Agoge Prospecting School)

30 Minutes to President's Club | No-Nonsense Sales

FOUR ACTIONABLE LEADERSHIP TAKEAWAYS

  • Clearly communicate metrics, quotas, and potential performance improvement plans (PIP) during onboarding
  • Design compensation plans that allow top performers to earn substantial rewards. To gain approval from finance, include decelerators where reps who don't reach 70% of quota earn no commission.
  • When turning around an SDR team,iIntroduce new talent by hiring fresh SDRs and replacing underperformers to inject new energy into the team.
  • Use a pod system (e.g., 4 AEs to 2 SDRs). This allows AEs to focus on key accounts while SDRs work on B and C tier accounts, generating additional meetings.
