CEOs: Broken pipeline & poor performer sales reps? I fix both for you in <60 days. You’ll hate how fast it works. | Modern Seller Program Founder

Your ability to book meetings, negotiate, and close deals with potential clients will determine how far you’ll thrive as a sales rep and leader.

This will allow you to:

📈 Build a career
📈 Hit your quotas
📈 Get recognition
📈 Get a promotion
📈 Get better offers
📈 Land sponsorships

However, booking meetings and closing deals it’s harder than ever:

❌ Prospects don’t return your calls
❌ Prospects don’t stop ghosting you
❌ Prospects don’t answer your emails
❌ Prospects don’t trust you as a seller
❌ Prospects don’t believe in your offer 
❌ Prospects don’t accept your LinkedIn Invite

All of these makes you feel miserable

You feel your manager’s pressure on your shoulder

And you start thinking that sales might not be for you.

Do you relate with this? Because I do - I’ve been there

This happens because the “old way” of doing sales doesn’t work anymore.

Sending 1000s of generic emails and praying they get back to you will kill your sales career.

Now, imagine having a proven system that allows you to systematically:

✅ Book more meetings
✅ Handle all the objections
✅ Move deals through the pipe
✅ Close higher tickets in less time
✅ Run discovery and demo calls like a pro

And, hitting your sales quota.

Wouldn't this be the scenario you would like to be in?

The good news - I can help you get there with:

➝ My weekly Newsletter with actionable sales tactics
➝ My daily sales practical examples in my Content
➝ My sales personalized program
➝ My 1-on-1 Coaching Sessions
➝ My team Coaching Sessions

Now, how serious are you about building your Sales Career?

Let's make it happen.

A weekly email focused on the evolution of Startups, Sales, and SaaS. A fun and human voice. Everything you need to know in less than 5 minutes. No BS.

83% of SDR activity creates zero pipeline.
These are the 5 differences between average and top SDRs:

Average SDR (still stuck in 2019):

– Builds lists manually
– Prioritizes by “who hasn’t been touched”
– Sends 150 emails a day
– Tracks activity, not outcomes

Calendar = luck.

Best-in-Class SDR (2026):

– Prioritizes real buying signals
– Uses AI to surface hiring, funding, exec moves, tech shifts
– Automates enrichment
– Focuses on the 20% most likely to convert
– Spends 70% of the day in live conversations

I apply the 5–25–70 Signal Framework with my clients using Enginy

5% of your TAM is in active buying motion.
25% show early signals.
70% of your time should be spent selling.

Teams that operate this way are seeing:

→ +46% higher meeting rates
→ +32% faster sales cycles
→ Cleaner forecasts
→ Lower SDR burnout

Because AI isn’t replacing reps.

It’s replacing guessing.

That’s why platforms like Enginy matter.

Not another sequence tool.

An intelligence layer that tells you:

- “This account is heating up.”
- “This one just triggered.”
- “Call this one first.”

The future SDR isn’t the hardest worker.

It’s the smartest prioritizer.

Are you a 2019 or 2026 model? (Be honest 😶)

Co-Founder at SaasFluence | B2B Influencer Marketing for SaaS Brands

I’m Denis, Co-Founder of SaasFluence

We’re an influencer marketing agency helping B2B tech brands drive demand and visibility by partnering with LinkedIn influencers.

Currently — with over 200 influencers, we manage influencer marketing programs for B2B sales tech companies like Maildoso, Icypeas, Saleshandy, Fowla, and others.

Why We Started SaasFluence

Before SaasFluence, I ran an outbound agency, Applus Leads. Through that experience, we worked with some incredible B2B tech brands — companies with fantastic products and real value to offer. But despite outbound efforts (cold calls and cold emails), they weren’t getting the traction they deserved.

A big reason?

Their LinkedIn presence and engagement were minimal. Most had only a few hundred page followers and very little visibility in the market.

That lack of recognition made it hard to convert cold leads. Without social proof or brand mentions, prospects were hesitant to engage — especially in the highly competitive sales tech space.
What they really needed was a new approach — one that would:

1. Build credibility
2. Earn trust
3. And drive demand by establishing them as trusted solutions in the market.

That’s where SaasFluence comes in.

Our mission;
To help B2B tech brands leverage influencer marketing to drive demand, increase sales, and grow.

How We Can Help

☑ If you’re a B2B tech founder or business leader with an influencer marketing budget of at least $10K/month,
 ☑ And you don’t have the time to run campaigns or manage influencer partnerships,
We’ll handle it for you.

We’ve launched thousands of LinkedIn-sponsored campaigns, and our clients are seeing exceptional ROI.

If you’re curious, DM me and I’ll share a few of our client case studies so you can learn more about our systems and results.

Lead Generation Partner - Outbound

I am so tired of seeing 20-year-olds giving me life advice on this app.

I scroll my feed and I see people who haven't really done any work yet telling us how we should run our companies.

Why is everyone trying so hard to be a teacher before they have even been a student?

I don't want to hear your philosophy or your 'mindset' tips that you found in a book. I want to see what you did with your own two hands.

Show me the scars from a mistake you made last month. Tell me about the client you lost or the project that blew up in your face because you messed up. 

That is the only way I can believe that what you are saying is something I can use in my life too.

We have enough people on LinkedIn talking about how things should be. We need more people showing how things are.

I would rather follow a person who is failing and being honest about it than a "thought leader" who has never done any work.

Do you want to see more advice or more stories from trenches?

I found a way to stop my sales team from wasting 4 hours a day clicking on LinkedIn profiles.

When a post goes viral, you get hundreds of comments. Most of them are junk. You get students, bots and "nice post!" comments.

Not a while back my team spent their whole mornings clicking on profiles just to find one or two people who could buy from us.

Now we use Trigify.io to do the dirty work:

→ We tell Trigify to watch a specific creator's post.

→ We set a filter. We only want to know about people with titles like "Founder," "VP of Sales," or "Head of Marketing."

→ Trigify.io ignores the 450 comments from students and bots.

→ It scrapes the 50 comments that match our filter.

→ It sends those 50 names directly to our CRM as "Warm Leads."

Now the sales team does not waste time. They wake up to a list of 50 people who fit our ICP and who are already engaged with the topic.

Do you manually check comments or do you just ignore them?
