SDR Meeting Types Guide

This article outlines the types of meetings SDRs can book, the impact of each type on deal creation.

1. Overview

SDRs at VT4S use specific meeting types to categorize different kinds of prospect interactions. The meeting type selected plays a critical role in triggering downstream workflows, such as:

  • Deal Creation (SDR Sourced Deals)
  • SDR Meetings Booked vs. Meetings Held Reporting
  • Contact Sequence Unenrollment

2. Meeting Types

There are three primary SDR meeting types:

Type 1: SDR Handraiser – Intro Call

Used for: Inbound contacts who booked via the “Contact Us” form.

What happens in the system:

  • ❌ No deal is created
  • ❌ Contact is not automatically unenrolled from sequences
  • ✅  SDR gets notified on new Inbound assignment

Associated workflows:

  • SDR Handraiser - Intro Call

Type 2: SDR Booked – Intro Call

Used for: General discovery calls or intro chats (inbound or outbound Sequences)

How it works:

  • Auto-applied when using default SDR links (prospecting agent)
  • Link is also stored in the CRM field: SDR Meeting Link on the contact record

What happens in the system:

  • ❌ No deal is created
  • ✅ Contact is unenrolled from active sequences
  • ✅  SDR gets notified on new Intro Call Booked

Associated workflows:

Type 3: SDR Booked – SQL Handoff

Used when: A contact is ready to be handed off to the AE for next steps in the sales cycle. This will ultimately result on deal being created. 

How can this meeting be booked:

What happens in the system:

  • ✅ Deal is created — but only if the contact is associated with a primary company. If not, SDR receives a notification and the system will retry deal creation the next day.
  • ✅ Contact is unenrolled from active sequences

Type 4: SDR Meeting Booked – Event

Used when: trying to get a group of districts together for something, usually after hours at a conference or something similar.

7. Meeting Booking Flow Summary

Visual Summary:

  • Sequences and forms book Intro Calls
  • Shared links and manual bookings generate SQL Handoff meetings
  • Deal creation is conditional on company association & SQL Handoff meetings
  • If no company: SDR notified → loop retries deal creation
