Why Buyer Enablement Beats Sales Enablement with Rory Sadler
This week on Make It Happen Mondays, John sits down with Rory Sadler, Co-founder and CEO of trumpet, the leading digital sales room platform helping companies like Gong, HubSpot, and Personio increase sales velocity by transforming the buying experience. Before founding trumpet, Rory spent years on the front lines of SaaS sales—first as an individual contributor, then leading global teams at Hotjar. Along the way, he saw firsthand just how painful and chaotic buying software had become—and made it his mission to fix it. In this episode, Rory shares the aha moment that led to building trumpet, his early entrepreneurial grit (selling sweets and DJing as a teen), and why entrepreneurship is way different than just working at a startup. We also dive into: Why buyer enablement is the new sales enablementHow mutual action plans build real trust and alignmentWhat sellers are still getting wrong about personalizationThe massive opportunity in simplifying complex buying decisions If you’re in sales, RevOps, or just care about delivering a smoother, faster, and more human buying experience, this episode will hit home.
