Workflow Steps

Step 1 - Prospect Research & List Building

SDR researches companies and individual contacts that fit the Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) using tools like LinkedIn Sales Navigator and ZoomInfo.

Step 2 - Multi-Touch Engagement Cadence

SDR engages the prospect through a pre-defined sequence of emails, phone calls, and social media (e.g., LinkedIn) messages over a period of 2-3 weeks.

Step 3 - Qualification & Discovery Call

Once a prospect responds and shows interest, the SDR conducts a brief discovery call to qualify the lead using a framework like BANT or MEDDIC.

Step 4 - Meeting Handoff to Account Executive

If the lead is qualified, the SDR schedules a meeting for them with an Account Executive and formally transfers ownership of the opportunity in the CRM with detailed notes.

The Purpose of Outbound Marketing Prospecting Leads

This workflow provides a structured process for outbound sales teams, often called Sales Development Reps (SDRs). It helps them to consistently research, contact, and qualify potential leads before handing them off to a closing Account Executive. This specialization of roles makes the entire sales process more efficient and ensures that closers are spending their valuable time on the most qualified, sales-ready opportunities.
