About this listen
Scaling an outbound sales team shouldn’t mean burning out your reps, flooding inboxes with cold messages, or watching your pipeline collapse. In this episode of Sell for Scale, Dylan Starr breaks down how to scale an outbound sales team without burnout — and how to build a repeatable motion that consistently generates qualified calls in 2025 and beyond.
Most founders think adding more SDRs or sending more messages is the path to growth. The truth? That approach leads to chaos, frustration, and turnover. Dylan shares why outbound scaling fails, the three biggest mistakes companies make, and how to fix them with a proven sales playbook designed for predictable growth.
You’ll discover:
- Why hiring SDRs without a system scales chaos, not pipeline.
- How tracking vanity metrics like dials and email volume hides the real problem.
- Why founder-led outbound creates more frustration than results.
- The three essential fixes: role clarity, quality metrics, and leadership ownership.
By clarifying roles, setting quality-driven KPIs, and installing a leader to own outbound, your team can finally scale with confidence. This is about more than activity — it’s about structure. If you add reps without a system, you scale chaos. If you track the wrong numbers, you scale noise. But with the right sales leadership and sales systems, you scale predictability.
This episode is perfect for B2B founders, sales leaders, and entrepreneurs who want to grow pipeline without burning out their team. Dylan also shares real-world lessons from working with a media buying company, where implementing these changes turned outbound from a broken mess into a consistent revenue engine.
