#533 - How to Build a Team That Thrives on 700 Cold Calls a Week | Melanie Smith
Melanie Smith, Head of Sales Development at Nooks, breaks down the exact systems, metrics, and coaching frameworks she uses to run one of the highest-performing SDR teams in outbound. In this episode, she shares KPI structures, call-block strategy, cold-call skill development, and how leaders can scale connect rates, conversation rates, and meeting production without burning out their reps. 🎙️ ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS: Weekly SDR readouts: Reps review KPIs and explain every meeting they booked to surface repeatable plays. Use AI for call pattern analysis: Analyze winning call transcripts to find coaching themes and enablement topics. Own rep career paths: Align with other departments and give SDRs projects that build promotion-ready skills.
