Let’s find out if your SDRs are performing as well as they should. But first, there’s one crucial factor that needs to be established. Let’s get started.
It’s essential to frame the meetings benchmark around the tier which your company is targeting.
For instance, are you going after Tier 1, AKA enterprise accounts? Are you looking to close Tier 2 mid-market companies? Or likewise, perhaps you’re targeting Tier 3/SMBs, with a rapid new account to opportunity cycle.
The tier your company is targeting is vital to estimate the number of meetings each of your SDRs should close per month.
Consequently, the rule of thumb is the following: the lower the tier, the higher the volume of meetings needed.
Here are some figures backed by Bloobirds data to give you an idea of what to aim for:
Targeting Tier 1: Between 15-18 meetings per month
Targeting Tier 2: Between 18-25 meetings per month
Targeting Tier 3: Between 25 or more meetings per month
You can see that there’s a clear relationship between company size and the number of meetings. The smaller the deal size, the more meetings your company needs.
Inversely, if your SDRs aren’t hitting this benchmark each month, numerous variables can explain why. For example, bigger deal sizes, targeting complex verticals, and the size of the market could make things more difficult for your reps to close meetings.
