Hi! I’m at my first bdr role in tech, the company is small and I think daily kpi are a bit hard. What do you think about 100 e-mails, 25 conversations on the phone (not calls, conversation), 30 connection on LinkedIn, 30 messages on LinkedIn? What are usually kpi in companies like salesforce for example?
Thanks

Their expectations are way too high. When I make 100 calls I usually get 4-5 conversations. 30 LinkedIn connections required me to send out 7-8x requests. 100 emails is easy once you create templates and sequences.

Those are high - 25 convos is nearly impossible unless they are using an auto dialer. Still very high tho. Are there no meetings booked goals?

like

Yes they are impossible and I’d say not useful also! I need 6 meetings at least and 2 orders per month

Also a bdr at a small company. 30 dials per day, 300 additional activities per week (emails, connect on LI, etc) 8-10 SALS per month.

Top SDRs oftentimes don't sound like traditional salespeople when cold calling. They use a very casual voice tone.

Here are a few tips:

1. Avoid upward inflections at the end of sentences. This makes it sound like everything you ask is a question
2. Slow down and eliminate buzzwords. Speaking fast makes you sound nervous and less confident
3. Avoid reading from a script - internalize your message and put it into your own works so you sound like YOU!

Thoughts? What are your top tips?
