OPUS x Jumpstart: Why an SDR shouldn't be the first sales hire

​Most early-stage founders hit the same wall. Sales gets busy, so they hire a BDR. More activity follows, but not more clarity.

​Join OPUS x Jumpstart for a sharper take on early GTM hiring and why the default SDR route often slows you down.
