SDR Attrition: It’s Wrecking Your Pipeline—Here’s How to Stop the Bleeding

Let’s get straight to the point: SDR turnover is a significant and costly issue. With industry attrition rates around 39% and some teams losing as much as 50-75% of their SDRs each year, you’re losing revenue faster than you can replace your reps. Each time an SDR leaves, it’s like money walking out the door. You’re left scrambling to hire, train, and ramp up replacements, and in the meantime, your pipeline stalls.

The True Cost of Turnover??

Every SDR typically requires 3-6 months to fully ramp up, and each lost month means your team isn’t meeting quotas. Companies faced with high turnover experience 34% lower quota attainment, which is a significant blow to your bottom line. Let’s be honest: if you’re constantly filling seats, you’re not making progress. You’re caught in a cycle of losing momentum and revenue.

Why SDRs Are Quitting??

The reasons for high SDR attrition are not complicated. Burnout from unrealistic quotas, a lack of career advancement, and poor management are driving SDRs away. A staggering 72% of SDRs say they leave due to the absence of a clear path for growth. You can’t expect them to stay if they don’t see a future in the role.

Bottom line: if your SDRs are treated like disposable assets, they’ll act accordingly—and leave.
