You want off the calls.
A closer hasn’t worked out.
Every deal still runs through you. Hiring a closer was supposed to end that. It doesn't work, because the sales system only lives in your head.
You are not ready to hire when you can sell the offer. You are ready when someone else can. Eight questions tell you which one you are.
Already running closers and revenue is still capped? Diagnose the offer instead.
Three ways founders find out the offer is not ready
Different starting points. Same missing piece.
The recruiter asked what the closer gets on day one
You went to a recruiter ready to pay the fee. They asked what the closer would be handed on day one. No script, no recorded calls, no numbers on the pipeline. They told you to come back when the offer was ready.
You hired a closer and ended up back on the calls
Ninety days, a base you paid out, and a handful of deals he couldn't get over the line. He asked what to say when someone pushed back on price. You didn't have an answer written down anywhere, so you jumped on the call and closed it yourself.
You're about to hire and something feels off
You've got the budget. You've got the applicants. You just can't picture the first Monday. What does he open? What does he say? What does he do when the lead goes quiet?
