## Caption

We had a client that looked unstoppable on paper.

Strong leadership. Great offer. Years of results. One problem: almost all the revenue was still coming from the founder personally selling.

New reps couldn't gain traction. Not because they were weak hires. There was no clear ideal customer profile, no qualifying criteria for leads, and the offer had too many moving parts to explain consistently.

Once we defined exactly who they sold to and how leads got generated, new reps started ramping fast — without years of experience in that industry.

Experience wasn't the missing ingredient. Clarity was.

Write down your ICP in one sentence, then write your top 3 qualifying questions for a lead. If a new hire couldn't use those to have a real conversation today, that's your gap.
