Outbound Tech Stack
Team Structure
Segmented SDR teams with territory rotation. Deep product training over scripts. SDRs trained on customer stories, competitive intel, and conversation frameworks.
Ramp went from 100 to 140 SDRs in 9 months — the fastest percentage growth in this directory. But what's interesting isn't the headcount, it's the approach: no cold call scripts. Ramp trains SDRs on deep product knowledge, customer stories, and competitive intelligence instead. Territory rotation keeps the team fresh and prevents account fatigue.
What Makes Ramp’s Outbound Interesting
Ramp has grown its SDR team by 40% in 9 months while taking an unconventional approach to training: no cold call scripts.
No Scripts Philosophy
Most companies hand SDRs a script and track adherence. Ramp does the opposite. They invest heavily in:
- Deep product training — SDRs understand the product at an engineer-level depth
- Customer stories — real use cases, not marketing one-pagers
- Competitive intelligence — how to position against specific alternatives
- Conversation frameworks — structure without scripts
The result: SDRs who can hold intelligent conversations, not robots reading from a screen.
Territory Rotation
Ramp rotates SDR territories regularly. This prevents account fatigue (where SDRs burn through their best accounts and coast) and ensures fresh perspectives on every territory.
Segment Teams
SDR teams are segmented by company size and industry, allowing for deeper specialization. An SDR working mid-market fintech accounts develops different skills than one working enterprise retail.
Key Metrics

Other company profiles
Deel
HR / Global PayrollDeel's SDR headcount is the most stable in this directory — 231 reps with only 2% growth over 9 months. That's not a bad sign. It means they've found their equilibrium. At this scale, the challenge isn't hiring more SDRs — it's optimizing output per rep. Their fully remote model mirrors their product: if you sell distributed workforce solutions, you'd better prove it works internally.
Gorgias
Customer Support / E-commerceGorgias flipped the script. They built their entire outbound automation system BEFORE hiring their first SDR. The result: 5,000+ unique AI emails per day at $0.002/email across 900 inboxes. SDRs don't write emails — they review AI drafts, approve sends, and handle replies. One AI sequence drove +150% more positive replies than their old templates.
HockeyStack
Analytics / AttributionHockeyStack went from 0 to $74M pipeline in 8 months with a 10-person SDR team. The secret: one SDR creates 42 Stage 1 opps per month — 6.7x above industry average. They built a system where SDRs execute, not research. Automated scoring surfaces the top 2% of accounts daily, dynamic sequencing adjusts by buying stage, and every call is recorded and reviewed weekly. This is outbound as engineering.
