Everyone in go-to-market got the same memo: blast a million emails, automate LinkedIn, plug in an AI SDR, and watch the pipeline fill. It is not working. Inboxes are numb, positive replies get answered by bots, and the CEOs who tried to automate the whole revenue team are not doing well. Whatever is easy stops working the moment everyone does it.

Amir Reiter built CloudTask so companies that are not Anthropic or Meta can still hire A-player sales talent: nearshore teams in LATAM, same time zone, paired with leadership in the US, with the systems and coaching to be productive in 90 days. CloudTask has staffed go-to-market teams for Expensify, Apollo, RingCentral, and Vonage.

We're building Human Cloud to do the same thing across every flexible talent category, so businesses can find the right partner for the hard roles in minutes instead of months.

In this episode, Amir Reiter shares:

  • Why the AI SDR is not working, why "whatever is easy does not work," and why the phone, the five-minute callback, and the 60-second ad follow-up are the highest-converting plays again
  • The barbell method: leaders in San Francisco or Austin, three SDRs per account executive in LATAM, and why nobody builds nearshore leadership unless they sell there
  • Contractor of record vs employer of record: when a five-person remote team should skip the EOR, when an office or an IPO means you need one, and why the right agreement per person beats one policy for everyone
  • The go-to-market structure for a 10-person startup, a 2,000-person company, and a Microsoft, and why you do not title a CRO before $15 to $20 million in ARR
  • Agents that come with the talent: why the next LATAM hire ships with an agent, how AI already coaches and scores 100 reps every morning, and why Human Cloud and CloudTask are solving the same access problem from opposite ends

Amir Reiter is the Founder and Chairman of CloudTask, the LATAM-focused marketplace for go-to-market and sales talent, based in Medellín, Colombia. He also serves as CRO of a hyper-growth company, where he is building a 100-person sales team.
