Frameworks like MEDDPICC aren’t just for AEs closing seven-figure deals - they’re the navigation system for SDRs too. Think of it like flying a plane. A pilot wouldn’t take off without knowing their instruments, altitude, and route. Yet so many SDRs “fly blind” when prospecting, chasing meetings without understanding the real signals behind a qualified opportunity. Here’s how to fly with precision: Metrics - know what measurable impact you’re promising Economic Buyer - identify who’s truly in control of the landing strip Champion - find the co-pilot who wants you to arrive safely When you apply MEDDPICC early, every outreach, every conversation, every meeting becomes deliberate. It’s the difference between hoping for clear skies and plotting your exact route. How many SDRs here are still flying on instinct instead of instruments? #Sales #SDR #BDR #SalesLeadership #SalesEnablement #PipelineGeneration
Totally agreed! Also, many companies still use BANT for SDR’s, which I personally dislike because 90% of enterprises do not have an allocated budget. It is the AE’s responsibility to create urgency, demonstrate and measure the success of using their technology, making the project self-funded, increase pain and shorten sales cycle.

1moI've coached SDRs to map one MEDDPICC field before outreach... meetings feel more intentional.
