🧩 In-House vs Outsourced Sales — Quick Comparison

✅ Key Questions to Ask Before You Decide

Are we ready to recruit, train, and manage a sales team internally?
Do we need to go to market fast (e.g. post-funding, MVP stage)?
Do we already have repeatable sales playbooks, or are we still figuring things out?
How important is control over messaging vs speed and flexibility?
Are we selling to a highly technical or niche audience that requires deep internal knowledge?

📊 Sales Team Structure in B2B: What’s Typical?

A typical B2B sales team structure may include:

SDRs/BDRs for prospecting
AEs for demos & closing
Sales Ops for CRM & data
Sales Enablement for onboarding
Leadership for strategy

Outsourced teams can cover all or part of this structure, depending on your needs.

📈 When Outsourced Sales Makes Sense

✅ You need results within 30–90 days
✅ You're testing new markets or verticals
✅ Your internal team is overloaded
✅ You lack sales leadership or process clarity
✅ You want a low-risk, performance-based engagement
