Finding leads is becoming my bottleneck.

How do you guys find leads consistently?

I've used Google searches, LinkedIn, Apollo, Crunchbase (trial) and some other tools. I feel like I've exhausted all leads and lucky to nail down 10 new ones a day.

Any tips on getting more?
Ideally start-ups that are hiring or recently funded, with less than 20 employees.

Zoominfo is the most clutch I find. Will tell you employee growth. Formds.com is another good site- you can find which organizations got funding in certain cities. I'd also recommend finding local business journals as they'll often say who got funding. Lastly, subscribe to finsmes and you'll get an email every morning listing who got funding and how much they got. TechCrunch is good too but idk if you're looking for more tech companies or not.

This is incredibly useful, thanks!

As for ZoomInfo, I'd love to get access but I can't afford it currently.

Almost forgot-pitchbook has some stellar reports if you can get your company to pay for it. Really shows you how effectively a startup is utilizing their funding.

I'll take a look at this never heard of it before! Thanks

Finished interviewing for an ATS role at Microsoft Wednesday. The interviewers said they were recommending me but I haven’t gotten any feedback from the recruiter. I’m at PwC S& and in consulting I always got at least a verbal yes day of or next day after interviewing. Does anyone know how long this usually takes?

Anyone else notice a trend with the mass amounts of layoffs in tech? Why are all their resumes so jumpy? Not like 2-5 years jumpy, like few months at a time jumpy? But still can land a position with similar tech giants? IMO, lots of these people get hired by their rich friends, stay a few months before someone realized they aren’t qualified and were just a recommendation from a current employee. Then repeat that process over and over until your company is down 50%

I’m currently an AE and was offered a promotion to sales manager. I’ve been waiting for this next step but the offer only provides a 5% raise over what I currently make. We had several manger seats open and I know external people we hired received an offer atleast 20-30% more than I did.
I’m currently trying to negotiate but there doesn’t seem like there’s willingness to do so from our hiring team. Should I decline? Should I leave? Should I accept and start looking elsewhere?
