Episode notes
Vanta's Inbound-To-Outbound Shift
- At Vanta, shifting from 90% inbound to 50% inbound required explicit weekly behaviors and pipeline math.

- Run sales math checks quarterly and monthly to set pacing and refocus reps on controllables.
- Re-anchor large quotas into tangible tasks like 'find 10 qualified opportunities in 30 days.'

- Dedicate the first week of the quarter to identify 10 high-ACV target accounts and build business cases for them.
- Align with marketing and SDRs to provide support and aim to land a few of those big accounts each quarter.
