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?

How I book +70 meetings/mo for clients at 20% of the cost of having 4 reps performing at full capacity:

OLD WAY

-4 SDRs
-Multiple salaries
-Bloated tool stack
-Manual research
-Manual emails
-Manual follow-ups
-20–30 meetings/month (team)

NEW WAY

-1 Modern Seller (AI-powered)
-Lean, precise, high-output
-Modern tool stacks
-60+ meetings/month (one rep)

(Partial) Techstack used:

Maildoso: Email infrastructure
Clay: Enrichment & Research at scale
ChatGPT: Personalization & Messaging
FullEnrich: Waterfall enrichment for emails/phones
DeBounce: Data validation
Instantly.ai: Sending tool

And +10 other tools to complete the full tech stack and strategy ;)

You don’t need a better product, or a fancy new feature.

You need (and deserve) the right modern GTM AI sales system that relies on intent, data, information and relevant insights.

That’s how you book meetings at scale in 2025, not by spamming prospects.

If you want to build a real process once and for all, DM me “system” and let’s do it together.

You won’t believe how fast your calendar gets hammered with qualified meetings. (I’m not cheap, but I’m good!)

+32% of your inbound calls go unanswered.
And +80% of those callers never call back.
Here’s how to solve it:

Last week, I shared that stat with a founder. Small team, lean setup, SDRs booked solid.

Midday calls were basically a roulette wheel: if someone was free, great. If not? Lost revenue.

Here’s the uncomfortable truth nobody says out loud:

If you can’t answer fast, you’ve already lost.

So we did what ELITE teams do: We tested AI.

Not to replace reps. To protect revenue.

Here’s what we built using CloudTalk:

→ An AI receptionist that picks up every call
→ Instantly qualifies the lead with high quality
→ Routes the hot ones to sales, or books them straight into Calendly
→ Logs everything to HubSpot automatically

No IVRs or “hold on” music. No “sorry, we missed your call.”

Results in 14 days:

- 57 new inbound calls captured
- 19 auto-qualified and booked
- 0 reps added

It runs in the background, 24/7. No “we’ll call them back later.” 

And the funny thing? Reps actually prefer it, because all the noise disappears and they can focus on real selling.

Here’s the principle I teach every team: AI shouldn’t replace reps. It should replace the tasks reps should’ve never been doing.

AI handles repetitive stuff. Humans sell.

The phone stack is the AI stack.

If you’ve got reps wasting time on “just checking” calls… or worse, missing them entirely, test this: https://lnkd.in/dHKteqHJ

PS: Tell CloudTalk you came from me and you’ll get an extra $100 in AI Voice Agents credits on your subscription.

I’ve helped +84 sales teams to “go AI”. Here’s why 99% of companies fail at doing it:

Over the past few months, I’ve reviewed sales setups from SDR teams to VPs of Sales and the same 4 mistakes show up every single time.

Here are The 4 Layers of AI Sales Mistakes 👇

1️⃣ Prompt-Level Mistakes:

You ask for “better emails” and get generic ones.

- No info
- No ICP
- No tone
- No details
- No context
- No insights

No nothing.

AI writes like it doesn’t know who it’s talking to because it doesn’t.

2️⃣ Process-Level Mistakes

No sync between ChatGPT, CRM, and outreach tools.

No detailed process on how your team should operate.

Without a connected workflow, every rep builds their own system and that kills consistency.

3️⃣ Strategy-Level Mistakes 

You measure “output,” not “impact.”

More prompts doesn’t mean more pipeline.

More calls made or emails sent doesn’t mean more revenue.

AI doesn’t fix bad messaging or a broken sales motion, it amplifies it.

4️⃣ Offer-Level Mistakes

Your prompts don’t connect to real buyer pain. You get “personalized” fluff that sounds clever but lands flat and AI can’t sell what you don’t understand deeply.

AI doesn’t replace good selling.

It scales it, if you build it right.

DM me if you want to solve these 4 layers and stop suffering from the AI FOMO! I’ll teach, train and help you build a powerful AI sales system.

Outbound didn’t suddenly get hard. Buyers got smarter and you didn’t.

You “use AI” sure but when I look under the hood, it’s still the same manual guessing game.

The teams actually getting replies?
 
They treat AI as infrastructure, not a shortcut and they nail all 10 of these 👇

1️⃣ Are you letting AI track buying signals before you even start outreach?
If you’re not… you’re basically guessing. That’s not prospecting.

2️⃣ Are leads enriched instantly so reps aren’t flying blind?
Because nothing kills relevance faster than missing data.

3️⃣ Does every outbound message actually start from a real POV?
AI should give you context → you turn it into clarity → that’s what gets replies.

4️⃣ Is your messaging adapting to behavior, or are you still running static sequences?
If it doesn’t react, buyers ignore it. Simple

5️⃣ Are reps still doing manual research?
They shouldn’t be. Intel briefs should hit their inbox automatically.

6️⃣ Are your emails rewritten for clarity and mobile?
Buyers skim. Most reps write novels. You already know how that ends.

7️⃣ Are you analyzing wins with AI to see what’s actually working?
Because “my gut says…” is not a strategy.

8️⃣ Is AI doing the grunt work so reps can spend their time on actual conversations?
This one alone frees up 5–10 hours a week. Every week.

9️⃣ Are objections being handled before the prospect even raises them?
Top teams don’t react. They prevent it.

🔟 Are reps trained to operate AI as a workflow, not treat it like some shiny tool?
This is the real separator between “using AI” and actually winning with it.

If you're not answering “yes” to at least 8 of these, you’re not AI-native, you’re just an AI simple user.

If you want to solve this, DM me “AI” and let’s see if we can work together on building a robust Sales-AI-driven process together

AI is tracking more about your pipeline than your reps are. Here are 15 metrics AI catches that humans ALWAYS miss (and why it matters):

Save this. Your competitors will.

1. Deal Stagnation Alerts

AI flags every opportunity that has been idle for more than 14 days and scores the risk based on the stage and silence duration.

2. Velocity by Persona

Know exactly how fast VPs, Directors, or Managers move between stages. Different personas have different speeds.

3. Pipeline Leakage Detection

AI shows where deals die (after demo, proposal, negotiation) and why they die using call transcripts and CRM analysis.

4. Sentiment Shifts in Calls

Tracks tone, pauses, hesitation, interest.  Buyers tell you everything without saying it.

5. Email & DM Emotion Tracking

NLP scores every reply as positive, neutral, or skeptical. You’ll know who’s actually leaning in.

6. Content Interaction Heatmaps

Which links, PDFs, and messages does your ICP click, read, or ignore.

7. Reply Rate by Value Prop

ROI vs. efficiency vs. cost savings: AI reveals which angle hits hardest.

8. Objection Type Frequency

Automatically tags “budget,” “timing,” “not a priority,” and trends it across calls. You’ll see patterns your reps never notice.

9. CTA Conversion Rate

“Quick reply” vs “Deck?” vs “15 minutes?” AI tells you which CTA closes by persona.

10.  Talk-to-Listen Ratio

Tracks rep talk time vs buyer talk time and correlates it with win rates. Top reps talk less. Always.

11. Discovery Question Depth

Score questions by quality, layering, and intent. This stops surface-level discovery.

12. Follow-Up Timing Impact

Same-day vs next-day. AI knows which timelines close faster (hint: timing leads to conversion).

13. Deal Confidence Scoring

82% close probability? AI calculates it using:
→ call signals
→ response patterns
→ champion strength
→ engagement

14. Risk Heatmap by Stage

Missing champion. No urgency. Budget unclear. AI surfaces risk BEFORE the deal stalls.

15.  Rep Forecast Reliability

Compare "rep gut feeling" vs reality. You’ll see who’s overconfident and who’s accurate.

AI isn’t replacing reps. It’s replacing every blind spot they’ve had for 20 years.

2 emails, 1 meeting booked in 10 minutes.
The Email Forward Strategy (explained below):

Most cold emails get ignored.

But there’s a play that flips the script — and books meetings fast.

I call it The Forward Strategy.

Here’s how it works:

You’re targeting a mid-market SaaS org. Their CRO just posted on LinkedIn about missing revenue targets.

In the comments: pipeline quality comes up.

𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 1: 𝗘𝗺𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗥𝗢

“Saw your post on rev targets. Teams in your space are tightening up pipeline quality by doing X, might be worth a look.”

You’re not expecting a reply.
You’re planting a signal.

𝗦𝘁𝗲𝗽 2: 𝗙𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱 𝗶𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗩𝗣 𝗼𝗳 𝗦𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀

With one sentence on top: “Saw this from [CRO Name], figured you might want eyes on it.”

Why it works:

→ It looks internal. Like the CRO passed it down.
→ It feels relevant. No pitch, just intel.
→ It uses social proof sideways. Exec is the signal. VP takes action.

It doesn’t feel like outreach.
It feels like context.

Here’s how to run it:

Find a CRO public trigger tied to a pain you solve. 
Send them a cold email with a sharp POV.
Forward it to their VP with that one-line intro.

No faking. No fluff.
Just smarter sequencing.

It’s not mass automation.
It’s surgical outbound.

Want to make it land? I use FullEnrich to get all the right emails and data.

Because even the best play flops if you’re emailing the wrong (or no) person.

PBDevco - Stage Door Restaurant

The Stage Door Restaurant is one of the most successful restaurants in Aberdeen. I worked mostly as a waiter. My main task was to provide the best possible customer service, which is obviously expected in a high quality restaurant. My duties included taking orders, bringing food and drinks to customers as well as trying to create a relaxed and enjoyable atmosphere. I have learnt how to deal with intoxicated customers in an effective way and developed a thick skin against abuse and pressure, which are common in this working environment. The role of waiter in a quality restaurant has made me appreciate more than any other job the monetary benefits of delivering a good service.

Waiter/Bartender

Alma Mater Society of Queen's University, Walkhome

During my academic year in Canada I worked for the student run organisation called Walkhome. My main role was to walk students home during late hours, in order to ensure their safety. As part of the job I was trained to put aside any biases or prejudices that could offend our customers or make them feel uncomfortable. One of the most important parts of the job was to entertain your patron so that he/she would use the service again. This helped me develop very strong communication skills as I had to indulge in conversation to put the patron at ease.

In fact, the most effective sales channel is:

Referrals.

Highest close rate.

Yet, it's not predictable.
(Mothers definitely aren't)

Which is why outbound is so important.

Outbound, in all its forms, is very far from dead.

Anyone claiming so is usually:
1. Totally delulu
2. Completely incompetent
3. Peddling their "secret formula"

The secret to mastering prospecting in 2026?

A truly multi-channel approach:
• Cold calling
• Cold emails
• In-person events
• SMS and WhatsApp
• Personalised Videos
• Direct Mail and Gifting
• Personal Brand and Social Selling

Each buyer has their own individual taste.

It's up to you, as a seller, to meet them there.

Is it going to be harder to master? Abso-damn-lutely.

Sales will always be hard, which is why it pays so well.

Your job is to keep going..

And try to find a chink in the armour.

If you keep at it, you will eventually succeed.

If you're REALLY struggling, you can:
• Go for a walk
• Take a deep breath
• Watch something funny
• Vent to someone close to you
• Lie on the floor in a fetal position

Every single time before I start calling.

The fear that:
• My tone will be off
• I will trip on my words
• I won't book a meeting
• The prospect will be rude
• A new objection will come up

You see all these tips on how to make it go away.
Harsh truth: it never completely goes away.
But, you can learn how to work with fear.

Here are the tips which work the best:

1. Have a well-targeted list to call
High intent prospects = less rejection
Build on Clay and get mobiles via FullEnrich 

2. Script in detail for the first 60 seconds
The opener and pitch make or break the call.
Ensure they come across as smoothly as you can.

3. Prepare responses for the common objections
Most calls get shut down by very simple objections
Learn 1-3 responses for each of the most common ones

4. Warm yourself up before starting the session
Practice opener, pitch and objections before calling
It will activate your brain but will also reduce mistakes

5. Gamify the cold calling process
I eat an almond for each rejection I get.
And I do 10 push-ups after the first ten, have fun!

The fear will never go away, but you can control it.

A voicemail is another touchpoint.

Another chance to engage.

Top 3 options:

1. The Cutoff

Curiosity will get callbacks.

2. Familiarity

Your familiar tone may get a call back.

3. The multi-channel.

You won't get a call back but you will activate other channels.

Rude prospects can ruin your day or even your whole week.

Unless you apply these 3 steps to turn them around:

1. Keep calm
They're emotional, don't be.
It's hard to be angry by yourself.

2. Validate their emotions
You're not why they're angry.
Let them vent, and they'll feel heard.

3. Dig into their problems/pain
Express curiosity about their situation.
You will gain their trust and willingness.

Once the tension has passed, they will be ok.

And you can proceed to figure out if you can help them.

Have you ever turned around a particularly difficult prospect?

When you hear an objection don't:
1. Panic
2. Give up
3. Ignore the objection
4. Say "I hear you, but.."
5. Argue with the prospect

Instead, PACE it:

1. Pause
Take 2-3 seconds.
Your brain will reset.

2. Accept
Welcome the objection.
"𝘐'𝘮 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘱𝘳𝘪𝘴𝘦𝘥 𝘺𝘰𝘶'𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘢𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵"

3. Consent
"𝘊𝘢𝘯 𝘐 𝘢𝘴𝘬 𝘢 𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘪𝘵?"
The prospect will relax and welcome the question.

4. Explore the objection.
You can now ask a challenging question.
The aim is to get them to think about what they said.

Practical examples:

𝘞𝘦'𝘳𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘺 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘳.
Pause
 𝘐'𝘮 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺'𝘳𝘦 𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵.
𝘊𝘢𝘯 𝘐 𝘢𝘴𝘬 𝘢 𝘥𝘪𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘵 𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯?

𝘋𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶'𝘥 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘢𝘵 𝘢 𝘥𝘪𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘳𝘦𝘯𝘵 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘳, 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘪𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘺 𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘵𝘵𝘦𝘳?

𝗢𝗥

𝘞𝘦'𝘳𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘱𝘱𝘺 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦 𝘨𝘰𝘵.
Pause
𝘐'𝘮 𝘴𝘶𝘳𝘦 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘢 𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴.
𝘊𝘢𝘯 𝘐 𝘢𝘴𝘬 𝘢 𝘲𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘢𝘣𝘰𝘶𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵?

𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵'𝘴 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘸𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘷𝘦 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘤𝘦𝘴𝘴?

This way, instead of trying to persuade a prospect...

You're letting them persuade themselves.

Try these three steps:

2. Ask questions to find what's missing
3. Propose to offer exactly what's missing

Sales work is often like detective work.

You may need to push to get the information.

As long as you're doing so to help them, it's a win.

Unfortunately, cold calling is a numbers game.

On 12/12/24, I was due for a minor surgery.

In the morning, there was a routine blood test.

After the first test, they asked me to do it again.

I had no idea why, so I simply complied, sure, why not?

After the second test, the doctor came to me:

"𝘎𝘪𝘶𝘭𝘪𝘰, 𝘐'𝘮 𝘴𝘰𝘳𝘳𝘺 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘶𝘭𝘵𝘴 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵"
"𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘥𝘰 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘯, 𝘴𝘶𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘵, 𝘥𝘰𝘤𝘵𝘰𝘳?"
"𝘠𝘰𝘶𝘳 𝘵𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘸𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘏𝘐𝘝 𝘮𝘢𝘳𝘬𝘦𝘳𝘴"

It's hard to describe what went through my head.
Let me tell you this: it wasn't pleasant.

"𝘖𝘬, 𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘵 𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘢 𝘧𝘢𝘭𝘴𝘦 𝘱𝘰𝘴𝘪𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦?"
"𝘠𝘦𝘴, 𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴, 𝘸𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘥𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮 𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘱𝘪𝘵𝘢𝘭"
"𝘞𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘴𝘢𝘺 '𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘦𝘴', 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘮𝘦𝘢𝘯?"

He told me to wait a few hours for the final results.

For the next four hours, I had to plan my life if I had HIV.

Initially, there was deep despair:
• No more sex
• Forever alone
• Quality of life ruined

A whole three hours of numbing fear.

Then, I told myself: "I either die or move on".

And that's when I realised I would find a way.

Probably a lonely way, but with a different purpose.

Thanks, Odin, the final results came back negative.

We spend so much of life worrying about small stuff.
One year ago, I learned not even HIV would stop me.
If what wouldn't stop me, what could?

The key areas:
1. Your Voice
2. The Quality of the List
3. Your Cold Calling Skills

I'd argue the quality of the list is the most important.

Then would come your voice and skills.

I'd probably go:
• Thick Foreign Accent
• Data from FullEnrich 
• Booked 69+. Meetings

Yes, the list is more important than the skills, I said it.

𝟭. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝘂𝘀𝗵𝗲𝗿.

They're very assertive.
They make bold statements.
They take control of the process.
They leverage high confidence and authority.
They're hyper-competitive and will push hard.

Not all buyers like this type.
But it does work pretty well because:
Many prospects want to be led during the process.

𝟮. 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝘂𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗿.

They have a softer approach.
They let the prospect feel in control.
They want to discover rather than persuade.
They highlight problems or gaps with questions.
They leverage empathy and relationship building.

Some buyers will find them weak.
Yet their approach still works well because:
They're letting the prospect feel safe and in charge.

I firmly believe the Puller enjoys longer-term success.

Because it's the direction buyers are taking.

And also has a nicer life.
