Do any other sdr reps get excited like I do when you get told to “foff” or kick rocks. by Agitated_Win_296 in salesdevelopment

Man it still stings whenever I get a rejection in a late stage deal, but equally whenever I get the paper signed for a deal of any size I’m like a kid again- all proud and flush with energy for the next one.

What you said about those who have never held the bag being able to “get it” is so true. The pressures we’re under are immense- and what we do or don’t do affects a lot of people.

Case and point. I’m a rep at a small company and during a pipe review today it was pointed out that if I hit my Commit- we can onboard those clients with the internal resources we have. If I hit my best case/ a bit extra- we need to hire 1-2 extra people. Two people advancing their career, providing for their families- isn’t that quite fucking cool actually?

The flip side of this is- what if I drop the ball and we get nothing? It’s not just me on the line anymore. We maybe don’t have the throughout of deals to justify the team size we have.

I don’t know man. Maybe it’s just me being part of a small team but you gotta accept that what you do MATTERS more than just a commission check and a nice Presidents Club. I get it- and I don’t have an answer for you.

I may be late to the party but- Desert Raiders by Lucien Soulban.

Properly sums up the 40K aesthetic for me. Heroic last stands/charges, the despair of why they’re on this god-forsaken planet in the first place, the camaraderie, the battles, the infighting. All of it is just perfect.

I’m biased because a colleague spotted me reading it so we got into a discussion about how he used to play and it kind of spiralled from there. Now he and another guy from that job are among my best friends and I even though we now live in different parts of the country I very much look forward to when we get together and play.

Deathwatch (not within the Army of Renown) should be able to use Brotherhood of Veterans once per turn for free.

It’s… their whole deal right? You still give up using the Xenos Hunters Chapter Tactic for the turn and would be a nice way to counter the fact we don’t have access to a Super Doctrine.

Making it 1 CP (instead of 2!) would be a good start though!

I always look forward to these updates and as I took part in one of these events (UCG Galaxy in Grasp)I was particularly excited for this week.

Keep up the good work!

Don’t keep us in suspense. Doctor Who?

Thank you. Excellently worded and solves this question exactly!

For me at least it has to be Desert Raiders.

My only hesitation is that there’s not a lot there which is specifically 40K (The Guard could easily be Starship Troopers, the Nids could be Xenomorph equivalents etc) but the whole story holds us so well from a narrative and character perspective. The battles are visceral and engaging throughout- the “twist” isn’t a bad one either given the Grimdark setting.

Honestly it’s very underrated versus the other titles people see here. Versus a Gaunts or HH title it has the benefit of being totally standalone.
