The Sales Mastery Behind Levelset's $500M Exit - GTM Tactics & Growth From CRO Martin Roth
"We got to a million dollars in ARR by taking meetings any way we could - sending chunky mail, handwritten cards, even just picking up the phone. It's simple."
In today's episode of Bricks, Bucks and Bytes, we had Martin Roth sharing his journey as Levelset's go-to-market leader and the real-world tactics that helped scale the business to a successful exit.
Tune in to find out about:
✅ Why the first million in revenue requires founders to do the selling themselves
✅ The five key traits Martin looks for when hiring salespeople (grit, resourcefulness, enthusiasm, curiosity, ambition)
✅ How selling to construction differs from typical B2B SaaS
✅ Why you should never hire a sales director before hitting $1M in ARR
Martin reveals how Levelset went from $1.5M to $10M ARR in six years, then doubled to $20M in just 18 months once they figured out their go-to-market strategy. A must-listen for construction tech founders looking to scale sales operations.
