This is really great feedback - thanks. We have do everything ourselves. We've met sales guys that don't even want to do lead-generation. They think they are only "closers." Anyway, finding someone great who fits into the entrepreneurial atmosphere and needs of a startup is another challenge.

You don't want your outside sales person doing lead generation.

Buy quality lists and then have an inside sales person qualify them and setup the appointments for the outside sales rep.

The good inside sales reps have different skills than the outside ones.
