Founder-led sales has a ceiling

At some point the founder can no longer personally close every deal. Teams that don't plan for this hit a growth wall.

Common breaking points

  1. No documented sales process to hand off
  2. Lead routing still done manually
  3. No clear SLA between marketing and sales
  4. Reporting that doesn't scale beyond a spreadsheet

Fix these before you scale headcount, not after.
