144: Rajiv Pimplaskar, CEO and President at Dispersive, talks about connecting with cybersecurity customers and scaling sales
Episode description
In this episode, Rajiv Pimplaskar, President and CEO at Dispersive, joins us to discuss why all the fancy features and complicated backend in the world mean nothing if you can’t communicate concisely. What do your customers care about? What is the heart of their struggle that you solve? And how do you scale those solutions to meet multilayer needs? When it comes to building business, you need to look at primary drivers and secondary, tertiary, etc. benefits. What more do you offer and how do those offerings contribute to your customer’s peace of mind?
We also talk through scaling sales, from the sales team (initial hires, strategic expansions) to channel expansion (maximizing leadership, branching out into other adjacent arenas) to increasing offerings (what other benefits customers need, what levels of service). It’s important to hire the right people and place them in specific roles. Beyond industry intelligence, you’re also hiring for and building loyalty.
