What an account executive actually owns
- Discovery, demo, and proposal ownership
- Pipeline management and accurate forecasting
- Negotiation and close, including contracting handoff
- Multi-threading across buying committees
- CRM discipline and deal documentation
What we test before you meet anyone
- A full walkthrough of their last three closed deals, including the one that nearly died
- A live discovery call, scored on questions asked rather than pitch delivered
- Real numbers: quota, attainment, average deal size, sales cycle length
- How they handle a procurement or legal delay without losing momentum
Where account executive searches usually go wrong.
Quota attainment claims are unverifiable and everyone was a top performer, so how a candidate talks through a real deal is the only reliable signal. The ones to be careful with cannot describe a deal they lost or why, because everybody loses deals and only some of them learn anything.
