    Who does the work

    Compare the responsibilities.

    An SDR’s duties depend on the job description, training and support you provide. These are responsibilities to assign when hiring, not a claim that every SDR covers them.

    Audience and research

    AMSP Outbound Engine

    We research prospects against the audience and exclusions agreed with you.

    Your SDR role

    Decide whether the SDR researches accounts or works from a list supplied by your team.

    Writing and approval

    AMSP Outbound Engine

    We prepare AI-assisted emails with human review; you approve business claims and examples.

    Your SDR role

    Decide who writes sequences, reviews claims and coaches the SDR on messaging.

    Sending administration

    AMSP Outbound Engine

    We manage the agreed domains, mailboxes, warmup and delivery monitoring.

    Your SDR role

    Assign technical administration explicitly. It may sit with the SDR, sales operations or another provider.

    Replies and handoff

    AMSP Outbound Engine

    We hand interested replies to your team with context.

    Your SDR role

    An SDR can work replies and coordinate follow-up if that is part of the role.

    Calls and qualification

    AMSP Outbound Engine

    Your team handles calls, qualification and sales follow-through.

    Your SDR role

    You can include calls, qualification and meeting coordination in the role and manage that work.

    Management and improvement

    AMSP Outbound Engine

    We manage the agreed email operation. You provide approvals and sales feedback.

    Your SDR role

    Your team recruits, trains and manages the hire, supplies tools and reviews performance.

    Choosing your approach

    When hiring an SDR fits

    You need someone inside your sales process to make calls, qualify interest and coordinate follow-up, and you can provide the management and tools for that role.

    When managed email fits

    You need the outbound email operation built and run, and already have someone to handle sales conversations. Managed email can support an SDR; it does not replace the entire role.

    Before committing, agree ownership, access, capacity, reporting and exit terms in writing.
