What is an Outsourced SDR Team?

An outsourced SDR team is a group of individuals that a company contracts to perform the tasks of a sales development representative. This can be done for a variety of reasons, such as freeing up internal resources or accessing expertise that is not available in-house.

What are the different types of Outsourced SDR Teams?

There are three different types of outsourced SDR teams:

1. Inbound lead generation

2. Outbound lead generation

3. Inside sales

Inbound Lead Generation Teams

Inbound Lead Generation Outsourced SDR teams focus on generating leads through inbound channels such as your website, blog, or social media platforms. Once a potential customer is interested in your product or service, they will reach out to you directly (hence the term “inbound”).

Outbound Lead Generation Teams

Outbound Lead Generation Outsourced SDR teams focus on generating leads through outbound channels such as cold-calling or emailing potential customers. These teams are usually more proactive than Inbound Lead Generation teams and they focus on reaching out to potential customers who may not be aware of your product or service yet.

Inside Sales Teams

Inside Sales Outsourced SDR teams focus on selling products or services to existing customers. They usually have a database of current or previous customers that they contact on a regular basis. These teams focus on upselling, cross-selling, and renewals.

What's the difference between SDR and BDR?

The sales development team is responsible for generating new leads and nurturing them until they are sales-ready. A business development representative is responsible for developing relationships with potential customers, often through cold-calling or emailing.

What is an SDR versus AE?

An SDR (sales development representative) is responsible for generating new leads and sales opportunities, whereas an AE (account executive) is responsible for maintaining and growing existing accounts. SDRs typically work on a lower volume of sales opportunities than AEs, but the leads they generate tend to be higher quality since they are coming from scratch. In terms of skillsets, SDRs should be proficient in lead generation methods such as cold-calling and emailing, whereas AEs should be better at sales strategies such as upselling and cross-selling.
