What if your sales team woke up on Monday to a calendar already full of qualified discovery calls?

In this episode of Sharkpreneur, Seth Greene interviews Gabe Lullo, CEO of Alleyoop, who has helped companies from startups to giants like Microsoft, Peloton, and ZoomInfo transform their sales pipelines. Under his leadership, Alleyoop.io has pioneered a two-step model that separates prospecting from closing—backed by 11 million cold calls a year and a focus on authenticity in outreach. In this episode, Gabe shares the systems, stories, and strategies that have fueled Alleyoop.io’s rapid growth and its role in scaling billion-dollar brands.

Key Takeaways:
→ The two-step approach that separates prospecting from closing.
→ How Alleyoop.io serves both startups and global enterprises.
→ The “hot lead vs. warm lead” model—and why timing matters.
→ What really causes sales teams to stall (hint: it’s not always leads).
→ Why most “lead gen companies” aren’t actually prospecting.
