Predictable Revenue Framework
A systematic approach to building a scalable, predictable B2B sales machine. Pioneered the outbound prospecting system that helped Salesforce add $100M in recurring revenue.
Core Principle
Predictable lead generation drives predictable revenue. The biggest mistake in sales is having the same people prospect AND close. Specialization creates a repeatable, scalable machine.
The foundation: Cold calling is dead. Cold Calling 2.0 — mass, personalized cold emails that generate referrals to the right person — is the new outbound. Combined with sales role specialization, this creates predictable, scalable revenue.
Scoring
Goal: 10/10. When evaluating or building a sales process, rate 0-10 based on predictability, specialization, and process maturity. A 10/10 means clear role separation, repeatable prospecting process, and predictable pipeline generation; lower scores indicate ad-hoc sales or reliance on heroics. Always provide current score and improvements to reach 10/10.
The Three Types of Leads
Not all leads are created equal. Treat them differently.
