Why this signal matters and how to find it yourself.
Why it matters
A new sales leader or C-level executive wants to prove their impact quickly. The first 90 days are critical—they are highly receptive to new, systematic ways of scaling the pipeline. This is the ultimate window of opportunity to initiate a conversation before their routine solidifies.
How to track it manually
Monitor executive job changes via LinkedIn Sales Navigator using the 'Changed jobs in the past 90 days' filter, or track leadership movements using platforms like UserGems or Scalelist.
