Co-founder & CEO @ trumpet | Collaborative workspaces for revenue teams to centralise buyer journeys | Follow to learn how to increase your sales velocity

How buyers buy has shifted. But most teams are still selling like it’s 2013.

I co-founded trumpet to fix that.

We're helping revenue teams at companies like Gong, HubSpot and Personio make buying easy with digital sales rooms and collaborative workspaces.

We’re helping teams:
• Cut deal cycles by 25%+
• Surface hidden stakeholders
• Create frictionless, personalised buying experiences - from first call to renewal.

As a founder, I share lessons on buyer enablement, GTM, and founder-led sales - the messy, real side of scaling a SaaS business.

If you’re leading a sales org or building a go-to-market motion, follow along.

Super excited to welcome to two new band members to trumpet 🎺

Big welcome to Shivani who has joined us as Product Manager, and Benjamin has joined as Junior Product Engineer.

Both stood out from the very first interactions.
Not just for their skills, but for their energy, ambition, and the way they consistently went the extra mile throughout the interview and hiring process. 

The kind of candidates who come in curious, prepared, and already thinking about how they can make an impact.

What really got us excited is that they both bring an entrepreneurial mindset with a bias to action, comfort with learning fast, and a genuine hunger to hit the ground running and make their mark. 

Shivani brings a customer-first, high-ownership approach to product, paired with experience navigating demanding environments and complex stakeholder groups. She’s already showing the drive and clarity that will help turn our roadmap into real customer value.

Ben joins with a strong product-engineering mindset and a clear passion for building thoughtfully, learning fast, and working closely with users. His curiosity, work ethic, and ambition made it clear he’ll grow quickly and raise the bar around him.

Finding this level of drive and intent isn’t something we take for granted at trumpet. It’s exactly the mindset we want more of as we continue to build.

We’re incredibly excited to have you both on the journey 🚀

Please join me in giving Shivani and Ben a very warm welcome 🎺

Most people think discovery is about collecting information.

It isn’t.

Real discovery changes how a buyer thinks about their problem.

I was reminded of that recently watching Ali, one of our AEs at trumpet, run a discovery call that ended up becoming one of our top 10 deals to date.

The prospect came in saying they were “exploring digital sales rooms”.

Fairly standard.

A lot of reps would have heard that and jumped straight to features.

Ali didn’t.
He started below the line.

What’s happening today?
Where do things feel messy?
What slows deals down?

The answers were operational.
Long sales cycles.
Too many stakeholders.
Deals slipping because information lived in too many places.

That’s where most discovery stops.

But Ali kept going.

He asked what those delays actually caused.

The tone changed.

They talked about deals dragging on for months.
Stakeholders losing confidence.
Momentum dying late in the cycle.

Then he moved above the line.

What does that mean for the business?

That’s when tangible metrics showed up.

The buyer explained they’d missed revenue targets twice that year.
Several six-figure deals had stalled or died because the process broke down.
Growth had slowed at the exact moment they were preparing for their next investment round.

Now this wasn’t “we want to be more efficient”.

This was “our growth multiple is at risk if we don’t fix this”.

Finally, Ali asked the question most people avoid.

Why now?

The answer was simple.

Doing nothing felt safer.
But it was also costing them real money, real confidence and real credibility internally.

That was the deal.

Not a digital sales room.
Not features.
Not usability.

A clear shift from below-the-line pain to above-the-line priorities, anchored in the buyer’s own numbers by going deep, not wide.

That clarity is what turned interest into action. 

40–60% of B2B deals end in “no decision”, often because the status quo feels safer.

Deep discovery is how you make “doing nothing” the riskiest option in the room.

That’s what effective discovery actually looks like.

“Buyers don’t want to talk to sales anymore.”

Not quite. 
They just don’t want to talk to your sales team the way you’re used to.

Forrester’s latest study on B2B buying behaviour put numbers behind what we’re seeing every day with trumpet customers: buyers aren’t flaky, they’re overloaded.


A few takeaways from the report:

→ 75% of companies say their buying cycle has got longer in the last 24 months

→ The CFO and procurement are now routinely in the deal (76% and 74% more involved)

→ Buyers hit your website, webinars and peer review sites before they’ll even accept a meeting

→ They’d rather get a solid answer now than a “let me get back to you” on another call

→ 80% are more likely to buy when the experience is consultative, not pitchy


If you’re a founder or sales leader, that means a few things:

• Stop hunting for THE decision maker. 
You’re selling to a committee now. Map it, equip it, and give them one shared space to make the decision together.

• Treat your digital footprint as your first sales rep. 
Your buyer has already formed an opinion before your AE opens their mouth.

• Build for the CFO by default. 
Quantify the value, in their language, before they even ask.

• Train reps to run a process with the buyer, not at them. 
Clear next steps, clear stakeholders, clear timeline.

• Arm the team with a deal room that actually helps them answer in the moment: data, proof, customer stories, mutual actions plans, all in one place.


Modern sales isn’t about talking more.

It’s about making project management and making it easy for your buyers to buy.

🇺🇸 And the band keeps growing 🇺🇸


Come join Sean Orlando 🎺 as an Account Executive or Alison Prator as a Customer Success Manager. 

You’ll be one of our first 40 hires.

You’ll work directly with me, our CRO - Ollie Sharpe and our Head of CS - Russell Mitchell to build trumpet’s US presence from the ground up - helping companies create seamless buyer journeys and scaling a best-in-class Sales and CS function.

These are rare roles where you have a genuine opportunity to shape the company’s growth. 

From my experience, this is the most rewarding stage of any startup journey.

But let’s be honest - it’s not easy.

There will be:
• Long hours.
• A ridiculous number of hats.
• A lot of figuring things out solo.
• Regular trips outside your comfort zone.

Startups are hard.
They aren’t for everyone.

But if this sounds like you
• You thrive in ambiguity.
• You’re relentlessly customer-focused.
• You see challenges as opportunities.
• You’re curious, entrepreneurial, and hard-working.
• You value impact over titles.

Then you’ll love it here.

We’re not trying to sell the roles.

We’re trying to find the right people - high-agency operators who want to build something meaningful from the ground up.

If that’s you and you’re ready to spearhead trumpet’s growth in the US, then apply below.

“Personalising emails takes too long and no one replies anyway.”

I hear this every week.
It’s the wrong diagnosis.

Email isn’t dead.
It’s just been abused. 

Here’s how I think about channels:

Email = nurture + context
Direct mail = underrated + memorable
LinkedIn = show your face + stand out
Face to face = proof you’re not an AI robot
Phone = fastest feedback loop + underutilised

Whatever channel you use, it comes down to HOW you personalise. 

And no, it’s not:
“You went to X university”
or
“You’re the CEO of ACME”

Try these instead.

↳ Talk about people in their team
"Can imagine Lucy and Tim are swamped reviewing CVs..."
Catch their attention by showing you understand their world.

↳ Read job specs for insights
Job specs are cheat sheets.
They’re full of priorities, language and must haves you can mirror back.

↳ BTL selling
Speak to end users first.
Use their language and pain in your note to leadership.
Bellow-the-line selling helps you skip the generic value prop fluff.

↳ Social engagements
Most people don’t post. But they do like and comment.
Use that as a trigger and forward the post with a sharp POV.

↳ Case studies
Look at who they sell to and partner with.
Tailor your message in outcomes their customers already care about.

↳ Types of hires
Don’t just read one role. Zoom out.
A pattern of hires tells you exactly where the business is betting.

Personalisation isn’t a line at the top of an email. 
It’s proof you’ve earned the right to be in their inbox.

How are you creating conversations through all the inbox noise?

Most reps are terrified of disqualifying prospects.
They’d rather chase happy ears for 3 months than ask a direct question. 

But your time is as valuable as theirs.
Every hour spent on hopeful pipeline is an hour lost on real deals.


Quick qualification check:

→ If they can’t articulate the cost of doing nothing, you’re not in a deal

→ If they can’t clearly map out their decision process, it is a conversation, not a project

→ If their questions are all about features, not problems, they’re browsing, not buying


The question I ask to qualify every opp:
“What happens if this problem goes unsolved for another quarter?”

If they shrug or give fluffy answers, you know exactly where you stand.
The best reps I know qualify out more than they qualify in.

Start being someone who challenges how they think about their book of business.

The deals you walk away from are the ones that make the rest of your pipeline move.

Prospect: “Reps are wasting time chasing unqualified deals"

Most sellers: Pain identified and move on 

Best sellers: Implicate pain and go deeper 

They don't just log it in CRM. 

In most deals you’re up against:
• 7–12 stakeholders in the buying group
• Only 5% of the market actively buying right now

Surface-level pain won’t survive that journey.
Implicated pain will.

Here’s the difference.

Surface pain:
“Reps are wasting time chasing unqualified deals.”

Implicated pain:
"If this continues, you’ll miss 18% of revenue target again next quarter, burn another £120k on dead pipeline and best reps will be at risk of leaving."

Same input.
Very different urgency.


What changed?
You did these 3 things on the call:

1. You quantified it
“Roughly how many deals last quarter were lost to no decision?”
“What’s your average ACV?”

2. You broadened the impact
“How does that show up for the board?”
“What does your team feel when they see another deal stall here?”
“If nothing changed by Q4, what breaks first?”

3. You made them aware of the risk of sticking with status quo
“Help me understand, if you don’t fix this, what does next year look like for you personally?”
Let them walk themselves into the implication.


Buyers who see a clear cost of inaction are 2x more likely to move from interested to committed and are 3x more likely to close at full price.

This is why discovery questions lists are mostly useless.
You don’t need 37 clever questions.
You need 5 direct ones and the patience to drill into each answer.

Don’t log the pain.
Make it impossible to ignore.

Founder DesignMyNight (Acquired '19) 🍹 | Co-Founder trumpet 🎺 | Investor in 55+ Startups (Currently not investing in new deals) 😇 | Podcaster 🎙️| 🏳️‍🌈

Hey!

I’m a London entrepreneur, currently living in Boston.  Also an angel investor, podcaster, startup mentor and public speaker, whose speciality lies in talking no-nonsense founder/investor advice and help. I'm currently co-founder of new B2B sales tool, trumpet, host of Pitch Deck podcast and co-founder of an angel investing venture-arm, Horseplay Ventures

I previously co-founded DesignMyNight, back in 2010 and managed to grow that over 7 years with minimal angel funding, to 100+ employees, 15,000 SaaS customers and 8m monthly uniques on the website. We exited to Access Group in 2017.

I live for the early stages of startups - building the brand, finding product market fit, iterating quickly and building out a team. Most of my content is centred around this, as well as tips from an angel investor. Even after exiting to financial freedom, I caught the founder bug again and have co-founded my next startup, trumpet, in 2022; looking to disrupt B2B sales and kill the sales pdf deck. Follow me on here while we build out this new journey in public.

Please feel free to ask for any advice or help, whether a founder, startup employee or investor and I will always endeavour to do what I can. I'm also a regular guest on podcasts, startup speaking gigs and webinars, so feel free to reach out to me if you are looking for guests/speakers. 

I do respectfully ask not to be pitched for investment in my Linkedin DMs and instead go through Horseplay Ventures. Hopefully my podcast is also a treasure trove of information for those looking to raise early-stage investment, thinking about it or just interested in it - search for Pitch Deck by Nick Telson.

Big news at team trumpet 🎺as we finally say what all our customers already know and move into our next era.

We are way more than just a digital sales room. It's a feature now, not the product.

While our DSR remains #1 globally and will continue to be so, we felt it was time to create a new category.

🎺 Rory Sadler explains it best in the short video....

Over the last 40 years we have seen sales tech change from CRM to Sales Enablement to Rev Enablement to Rev Intelligence and we now have a tonne of siloed products...

Trumpet's next chapter aims to combine all of these into one AI-powered workspace where Enablement, Collaboration and Intelligence all work together.

We are the Intelligent Go-To-Market Layer for Revenue Teams 

...combining CMS, Sales Rooms, Workspaces, Collaboration (internal and external), Org Charts, Proposals/Quotes, Buyer Engagement Intelligence, Actionable Intelligence, Coaching, 10+ other AI features plus 55+ integrations....

One connected, collaborative and intelligent tool.

Over to you Rory....👇

Co-Founder trumpet 🎺 | Founder DesignMyNight (Acquired '19) 🍹 | Investor in 55+ Startups 🤑 🏳️‍🌈

Being a second time founder is wild.
You are still guessing, but you know exactly which guesses nearly killed you last time.

With DesignMyNight I learned plenty the hard way.
This time round with trumpet 🎺 I have been very deliberate about changing some of my defaults.

Here are the 5 biggest changes I have made.

1) I designed the business model before the product

First time I was obsessed with the product idea. The model was an afterthought. Now I start with ACV, margin, sales cycle, who actually pays and how often. If the numbers did not work on a simple spreadsheet, I do not build it.

2) I am ruthless on people quality, not people quantity

First time I hired for relief. Too busy, drowning, just get someone in.
Now we hire very slowly with scary high bars. One great operator beats three people we need to manage every day. 

3) We optimised for distribution from day one

Before, product was the obsession and distribution was an afterthought.
We built, then hoped. Now we only build things I already know how to sell. Audience, channels, partnerships, content. If I could not see the path to customers, we did not build it

4) I was far more intentional with investors

First time I was just happy anyone said yes. Wrong. This time we reference checked investors harder than they reference checked us. Values, speed, how they behave when things dip etc. Money is a commodity, behaviour is not.

5) We run the company on a clear operating rhythm

Last time it was vibes and firefighting. Some weeks we were busy but not actually moving. Now we have monthly metrics, clear priorities, operating playbooks and clear owners for each area. t is a lot harder for the business to drift without anyone noticing.

Second chances are rare.

The trick is always be learning and not wasting the pain from the first

At trumpet 🎺 we recently told a big paying customer no.
To a chunky custom build that would have made us hit Q1 quota already.

On the surface it looked perfect
Huge logo
Excited champion
Budget approved

But here is what actually went on behind the scenes as there are learnings for all I think...

- The request would have dragged us off our ICP
- The use case was cool but miles away from our core users
- It would have pushed trumpet toward being an agency not SaaS
- The feature did not compound
- No clear path to reuse across our base
- No way it made the core product better for everyone

Sales loved it for the wrong reason
 
It made the deal bigger
But it would have slowed us down

❌ High implementation cost
❌ High support cost
❌ Low reusability
 
So we told them no
Respectfully
Explained why
Offered a trimmed version that kept us closer to our main product and kept them happy

We did lose some short term revenue

But we kept something more important

A product that gets better for most of our customers and keeps us bang-on focus across the board

From the outside it is easy to assume growth comes from every yes

At our stage it can also come from choosing the right no.

We just crossed 1000 reviews on G2. F**k yeh! 🥳
And we are still sitting at number 1 in our category globally

I am proud of that
But I'm even prouder of how we got there

Every single review is treated like a product slack message from our team
• The glowing ones show us what not to break
• The brutal ones show us what to fix next
• The detailed ones end up as product specs

We read them ALL
We tag them
We turn them into roadmap decisions and UX changes

This is not a vanity metric for us
It is a feedback engine

So THANK YOU to every customer who took time out of a very busy day to write one line or ten paragraphs about us

You helped us get to 1000 reviews
You will be the reason we earn the next 1000

Relentlessly customer centric is not a tagline for us
It is one of our trumpet values and we stick to it religiously.

Having observed over 50 founders that I've invested in. Here is a list of 50 characteristics I think make a good founder:

1) Obsession with the problem
2) Ability to hear no ten times and not take it personally.
3) Writing things down clearly
4) Knowing when a tiny ugly experiment is better than a beautiful strategy
5) Hiring people because they are better than you
6) Firing fast when your gut has already decided
7) Saying I do not know without flinching.
8) Caring more about cash in the bank
9) Being honest in investor meetings
10) Being able to sell
11) Protecting deep work time
12) Admitting when the market does not care about your idea
13) Treating customer complaints as free consulting
14) Knowing the difference between a bad week and a broken business.
15) Letting your team ship work that is not perfect
16) Making clear quick decisions in meetings
17) Staying calm when numbers are bad
18) Being able to explain what you do to a kid or parents
19) Choosing boring consistent progress over heroic all nighters
20) Talking about money openly
21) Saying no to cool opportunities that do not move the core metric
22) Giving credit to the team in public and feedback in private.
23) Knowing when your own ego is the real blocker
24) Treating investors like partners not parents.
25) Keeping your personal burn rate low
26) Asking your best people what they really want and actually listening
27) Being willing to walk away from mis-aligned money
28) Staying curious about competitors instead of obsessed
29) Realising culture is set by your actions not what you simply write down
30) Checking the numbers yourself
31) Becoming less important to daily operations as the company grows
32) Being honest when someone great has simply outgrown the roles you have
33) Keeping a small circle of people who will tell you when you are being an idiot
34) Turning complex plans into one simple next moves
35) Not confusing being busy with making progress
36) Knowing which metrics actually matter at your stage
37) Staying kind when you are stressed
38) Being able to pitch with the same energy at all times
39) Choosing long term trust over short term wins in every deal
40) Protecting your sleep
41) Not needing to pretend things are amazing when they are not
42) Giving your team context instead of random orders
43) Letting go of old decisions when new information arrives
44) Knowing when you are not running toward a clear goal
45) Saying I messed that up so the team feels safe to own their mistakes too
46) Caring about the lives your team beyond their output
47) Choosing a simple product/feature that actually ships
48) Being willing to be misunderstood for a while when you take a non obvious bet
49) Designing your work around your energy
50) Wanting the company to win more than you want to be the hero of the story

Which do you nail? 
Which could you improve on? 
What's missing?

Planning a year as a founder is not about a big strategy offsite and a shiny Notion page.

It is about a few hard decisions you are willing to live with for twelve months.

Here is how I now plan my year.

1) Start with the uncomfortable question - What has to be true in twelve months for this year to have been a success?
- Revenue
- Team
- Product
- Your own life

Write the answers in one sentence each. If it does not fit in one sentence you aren't getting to the core

2) Pick 3-5 non negotiable company priorities/themes

Not ten. 
Every project must map to one of the three. If it does not, it dies.
This is how you protect your team from chaos and yourself from distraction.

3) Turn priorities into bets not tasks
Instead of writing "Launch new pricing"
Write "Double expansion revenue by testing three pricing models by June"

Good bets have a clear outcome, a deadline, an owner, and a maximum spend.

4) Build a stop doing list
- Which customers will you stop serving
- Which features will you stop maintaining
- Which meetings will you cancel

Good strategy is also choosing what you will ignore.

5) Decide your personal rules up front
- Maximum hours you want to work
- Non negotiable time with family or health
- What you will say no to even if your ego wants to say yes

If you burn out the plan does not matter.

Your strategy is not what you write in January
It is what you refuse to compromise on in November

Having exited a company after a decade building, there is something about the exit planning I wish I was told earlier.

Your real exit plan is not a number
It is your life

We obsess over valuation, equity, secondaries etc but it hides a simple question - What do you actually want your life to look like before and after any exit?

For a long time my own plan was basically...
Work as hard as possible
Build something big
Sell
Life will somehow sort itself out

We design all aspects of our business and products in detail but treat our own life like an afterthought slide at the end of the deck

What did I want after an exit? What did I want my life to actually look like? What would I need to make this happen?

The shift for me was treating life design as seriously as a startup strategy
Very practical things

- Energy map
 When in the day do you feel good
 Do you want long deep work blocks or variety
 Could your role reflect that

- Relationship map
 Who are the people that truly matter
 Who gives you energy and doesn't drain it
 With who do I get genuine enjoyment with
 Who do I learn from

- Work map
 What parts of the game do you still love
 Selling, coaching, product, content
 Can your next chapter be mostly that, instead of owning everything again

- Money map
 What does enough actually mean for you
 Not for the tech press
 For you
 What would financial freedom look like?
 If you wrote that number down, you would probably act differently

Life design is not a fluffy vision board
It is a set of constraints you choose on purpose

If you're lucky enough to be ready to build for a second time, make sure you stop and think what you REALLY want out of it this time around.

You get plenty shots at building companies but only one shot at life 🤷

Building a startup is loud
But what if you're an introverted founder?

I am not the loudest person in the room
Never have been

For a while I thought that meant I was not the type of personality to be a founder

So I did what most introvert leaning founders do
Forced the big energy
Over prepared every social situation
Came home absolutely wiped

Over time I realised I did not need to become more extrovert

I needed to design the company around how I actually work best

Here is what that looked like in practice:

- One to one as the default
 Big networking events or founder events drain me
 So I stopped going 
 I would message people 1 on 1
 Have one good conversation
 Fewer people
 Better relationships
 More deals
 Less acting

- Writing as a superpower
 Extroverts often win in the room
 Introverts often win in the follow up
 I leaned hard into clear written updates for investors
 Thoughtful emails to partners
 Long form documents for the team instead of endless meetings
 It gave me time to think
 And it made decision making cleaner

- Designing my calendar like a battery
 Back to back calls all day
 No chance
 I started blocking recovery time after anything high stimulus
 No other meetings straight after
 Even thirty minutes to reset made me far better in the next conversation
 Leaned into async collaboration - emails and looms instead of meetings

- Hiring my social opposite
 Instead of worrying that I was not the big energy founder
 I hired people who were
 Commercial leaders who loved being out there
 Co-founders who enjoyed the spotlight
 Team leads who could shine without needing me all the time
 Their natural state was my unnatural state
 The mix worked


None of this means introverts get a free pass on the hard stuff

You still need to sell
You still need to pitch
You still need to have tough conversations

The difference is you can choose the format and the rhythm that suits you instead of copying the loudest founder you know

Some of the best companies I have seen were built by founders who do not dominate the room

They listen longer
They think deeper
They pick their moments

You do not have to change your personality to build a big company

You just have to stop building a company that constantly fights it.

Having grown two startups myself and backed a tonne more founders. 
The money trap is a real problem not many talk about.

As revenue grows, funding rounds grow and more money is in the company bank, the money fears do not disappear they often get louder

For most founders it sounds like this:

- Fear of going back to zero
 So you cling to every client
 You keep bad revenue
 You avoid bold bets
 Safety first slowly kills the upside

- Fear of being the one who ruins it for everyone
 Team
 Family
 Investors
 So every decision carries a silent courtroom in your head
 You delay hard calls because you are scared of f'ing it up

- Fear of lifestyle creep
 You upgrade your life faster than your company can justify
 Now you are building just to stand still
 Every month feels like a test you can fail
 A taste of what you can have one day but you're still not there yet

- Fear of stopping
 Money became the scoreboard
 If you slow down you lose your identity
 So you keep raising
 Keep building
 Even when the game you are playing no longer feels like yours

None of these fears are solved by another funding round or a higher valuation

They are solved when you decide what enough really looks like for you.

And build from there.
