Buildkite helps dev teams ship code faster with confidence

Josh Davis, Sales Manager, blends proven sales techniques with his own leadership style—focused on scaling what works, not guesswork. His approach emphasizes empowering his team with clip-based call coaching and data-driven insights, not gut instinct.

Coaching Coverage Gap

Despite Josh’s best efforts to listen to every recorded sales call, time constraints meant he could only review about 10% of calls. This limited coverage created significant challenges for delivering consistent feedback and skill development across the team, despite his commitment to coaching excellence.

“I have to pick and choose where I spend my time… It’s inevitable that more calls need review than I can handle.”

Ineffective Practice Environments

Without access to real sales call clips, practice scenarios felt artificial and feedback remained subjective. Reps weren’t developing the right skills for actual buyer conversations, leaving them unprepared for critical moments that could make or break deals.

“Role-playing is really powerful… but role-playing is awkward.”

Sales Coach’s Dilemma

Josh constantly faced a tough choice: Focus on today’s deals or develop his team for tomorrow? Without a clip-based coaching framework, he couldn’t identify and share key conversational moments efficiently. This limitation impacted both immediate skill application and long-term team development, creating a bottleneck in scaling coaching effectiveness.

AdamX Synthetic Coach deployed a comprehensive suite of products to transform Buildkite’s coaching approach from sporadic, opinion-driven feedback to a systematic clip-based coaching system.
