For Otto

E-prescribing Software Sales Playbook

Otto, we’ll build your new AE’s first 100 accounts in 10 days. The first 25 are below, and they’re yours either way.

If your AE seat stays open another quarter, ignore this. If it doesn’t, the next two minutes are worth it.

What we noticed

You raised a $16M Series A, and your Found and Measured case studies show a switch from DoseSpot done in days, which is the proof a new AE can open every call with.

Your Enterprise Account Executive, Digital Health role has been posted since April 29, so the accounts below have had no one opening them for that long.

  1. April 29 Enterprise Account Executive, Digital Health first posted
  2. April 30 $16M Series A announced
  3. August 10 Pharma and Pharmacy Enterprise AE roles posted
  4. November 9 Digital Health role still open; the first 25 accounts are on this page

What changes for your new AE

Your new AE starts day one with 100 accounts you approved and drafts written to the first five, instead of spending their first weeks finding them. Your posting already tells them there is no SDR support; this tells them which digital health companies to call first, and why now. With 3 to 6 month cycles, every week saved on finding accounts is a week sooner to their first close.

Your first 25 accounts

Picked from how you describe your buyers in your posts and case studies. Each one has the reason it’s here and the source.

Yours either wayKeep these 25 whether or not we ever talk.
Cut any you wouldn’t callTell us why, and we replace it. We keep going until you’d keep at least 80 of the 100.

How the list learns your calls

In the first session you react to accounts like these: keep or cut, and why, the way you’d tell a cofounder. Each reason becomes a rule you can read, the pool re-scores, and ten more show whether it learned. Keep eight of ten and the hundred is built on your rules.

  1. You cut one on the call, and say why
  2. It becomes a rule
  3. The pool re-scores
  4. Ten more test it

Which questions can only you answer?

Your posts and case studies don’t say which telehealth companies you’d never spend a meeting on, or what a clinical leader has to see before they switch from DoseSpot. About 30 minutes of you reacting to real accounts answers these.

  1. 1

    Is a digital health company that builds on its own clinical tool a better first call than one on an EHR?

    Rows 1 and 3 build prescribing in their own stack; rows 18 and 20 sit on a vendor platform. Your answer reorders the list.

  2. 2

    Does a company that sells GLP-1s mostly through compounded drugs count, or only one on branded drugs?

    Rows 2, 8 and 16 sit on different sides of that line.

  3. 3

    When the buyer is an employer-channel company, is the decision at the platform or at the employer?

    Rows 10, 11 and 14 sell to employers; row 25 sells to health plans.

  4. 4

    Is a behavioral health provider ever a fit, or is prescribing too small a share of its work?

    Rows 21 and 23 test this.

Photon Health sales playbook, in brief

Photon sells a prescription marketplace and prescribing infrastructure to scaled digital health companies and health systems. A patient gets a text with real pharmacy options before the prescription is routed.photonhealth.com, photonhealth.com/tech-enabled-care

Its customers describe the problem as time lost on a separate e-prescribe tool: Measured says “DoseSpot was time-consuming for our providers,” and Found’s support team made up to 5 pharmacy calls per patient.Measured case study, Found case study

The Enterprise Account Executive for Digital Health is a full-cycle role with no SDR support, selling to clinical leadership, clinical operations, product and technical leaders over 3 to 6 month cycles.Enterprise Account Executive, Digital Health posting

The first 25 accounts for that hire are scaled telehealth and virtual care companies, each scored on six rules and backed by a dated, sourced signal such as a raise, a launch or an acquisition: fifteen strong fits, six in the middle and four edge cases that test the rules.

Questions founders ask

Can’t my AE build this when they start?

They can. But wouldn’t you rather they were selling? Reps spend 28% of their time selling, and the average new AE takes 6.2 months to ramp. This replaces the weeks they would spend building the list and learning what you already know.

28%: Salesforce, State of Sales (7,700+ sellers, 2022) · 6.2 months: Bridge Group, 2026 AE report (158 companies)

How much sooner does my new AE get to work?

From day one, because the accounts you approved and the first drafts are waiting. The average new AE takes 6.2 months to ramp, and at a $200K median OTE that is about $103K paid before they are fully productive. Only 48% of AEs hit quota.

6.2 months: Bridge Group, 2026 AE report (158 companies) · $103K: arithmetic ($200K median OTE × 6.2 months ÷ 12); Bridge Group, 2026 AE report (158 companies) · 48%: Bridge Group, 2026 AE report (158 companies)

We tried an outreach tool and it sounded like a robot. How is this different?

Nothing goes out on its own. Every account on the list is one you approved, every draft is written to one person, and you send each message yourself. It learns your voice from what you’ve written and from every edit you make.

How much of my time does it take?

About a day, spread across the ten working days: the 2-hour session on how you sell, short list reviews you can talk through, two training sessions and your first mornings. The hours your AE gets back go to selling, where reps spend just 28% of their time today.

28%: Salesforce, State of Sales (7,700+ sellers, 2022)

What happens after you leave?

It keeps learning. Each week it proposes rule changes from what your cuts, replies and silences showed, and you approve or reject each in a line.

Where does my data live?

In your own accounts: your Claude, your CRM, your files. Nothing runs on anyone else’s side, and any rule can be changed in plain English.

How is it priced?

The first engagement is one fixed price for the ten days. It depends on how many people we train and which systems we connect, so Kash quotes it on a short call. After handover, you can keep us on a retainer to keep supporting your sales process and refining it, if you choose that route.

How the 25 were picked

60 stores found and scored on 6 rules; the 25 chosen to teach: 15 strong, 6 middle, 4 at the edges. Logos are from each store’s own site.

  • Sources: company press releases and news pages for each account, each opened and saved on November 9, 2026. Photon’s own site, case studies, blog and Enterprise AE posting were read in full.
  • Customer check: none of the 25 appears in Photon’s case studies. The logos on photonhealth.com (WeightWatchers, Superpower, Nourish, Doximity, Counsel, Berry Street, MoPed, Ultralight) were left off the list for that reason.
  • Founder words come from LinkedIn posts, the Cost Plus announcement and customer case studies. No podcast or interview transcript was found, so the page rests on posts and case studies.
  • Rows 7 and 6 carry signals older than nine months or at the edge of it (September and December 2025); R4 scores them lower.
  • Where a source gives no scale or location, the row says so. Row 8 is a CEO interview, not a business event.
