From Loss Leaders to 1M Contacts: One Partner’s Journey
Fabian Valado, General Manager at BFJ, has done it all—sold at a loss just to get experience, taught clients how to buy, and scaled his agency into working with customers in the 500k—1M contact range by staying relentlessly focused on outcomes.
In this episode of Owning the Outcome, Fabian talks candidly about what it takes to grow from small partner to enterprise-ready seller. He gets into how to win over IT blockers in healthcare, why 50% of the job is customer service and teaching, and what he considers the bar for excellence as a HubSpot partner.
If you’re a partner looking to scale, navigate complex sales, or just want a front-row seat to how technical operators win in the age of AI—this one’s for you.
