From Founder-Led Sales to Scalable Sales Teams

Episode Notes

Welcome to the CanadianSME Small Business Podcast, hosted by Maheen Bari, where we explore the systems and leadership required to build predictable, scalable revenue. As companies grow beyond early traction, many hit a ceiling when sales remains founder-led and informal.

In this episode, Andrew Devlin, President of ScaleTech CRO and Sales Xceleration Certified Advisor, breaks down how to transition from founder-led selling to a repeatable sales engine. The conversation covers sales infrastructure, fractional leadership, and how growing businesses can access enterprise-grade sales expertise without enterprise-level cost.
