Outbound Isn’t Broken, Your Messaging Is ft. Kellen Casebeer
Manage episode 506480664 series 3688229
In today's episode, I sit down with Kellen Casebeer, founder of The Deal Lab, and talk about his unique approach to message-market fit testing and GTM strategy.
We dive deep into his unconventional journey from sales rep to fractional VP of sales to agency founder, exploring how he discovered the power of segmentation and messaging before having a product to sell. We discuss the evolution from basic templates to sophisticated Clay workflows, the value of testing beyond just meeting generation, and why he believes most sales teams are missing massive opportunities for optimization regardless of whether they're hitting their goals.
Enjoy 🙂
