[Infographic] 3-Step Multithreading Sales Guide for Account Executives

If you’re an account executive (AE) who’s not multithreading to reach as many people involved in the buying journey as possible, you’re not playing the game right.

There are so many “behind the scenes” buyers involved in deals, especially in today’s market. The prospect you’re talking to most likely won’t make the final decision, so multithreading is crucial to accelerate the sales cycle.

Although simply asking your prospect, “who’s involved in the buying process?” is one way of going about it, there’s another way that may get you better results.

Does it involve some LinkedIn investigations?

Yes, yes it does.

Is it hard?

No, especially when you can automate most of it.
