I only take sales meetings when someone on my executive team refers the opportunity to me directly. I'm deliberate about that — if I take a meeting, I want to be fully present for it.
If you think your product could be a good fit for Alpha, start with the functional leaders. They run their areas, set their priorities, and decide what's worth a closer look. If they see a fit and think I should be involved, they'll make the introduction.
A referral gets you considered. It doesn't guarantee a meeting. Please don't contact my team just to get access to my calendar.I don't respond to unsolicited pitches or meeting requests. That's a boundary, not a judgment about your business — just how I stay focused on the work in front of me.
Thank you for understanding, and for respecting it.
