Nikhil Kumar — Co-Founder
Building SDR teams that scale revenue, not just pipeline | 6.5+ years of leading outbound engines for high-growth B2B SaaS 🚀 SDR teams are often treated as short-term levers. The best ones become long-term strategic assets -predictable, promotable, and tightly aligned to GTM goals. That’s the kind of engine built over the last 6 years across India’s most ambitious SaaS startups. From hiring the first SDRs to architecting systems that generate 100s of qualified opportunities quarter after quarter, the goal has always been the same: build a motion that scales without breaking. What defines the approach? Hiring for potential → coaching SDRs into AEs, managers, and beyond Playbooks that evolve → based on rep feedback, market signals, and buyer psychology Outbound ≠spam → marrying ABM with personalisation to open doors, not burn bridges Thinking over scripting → mindset-first coaching that drives independent, strategic reps Sales-marketing alignment → not lip service, but shared KPIs, cadences, and feedback loops Teams that run on systems outperform teams that run on motivation. That belief has consistently turned early-stage chaos into a predictable pipeline and built SDR teams that don’t just hit quota, but raise the bar.
