The gerund is the verb form ending in -ing which acts as a noun. The one word riposte "Gerund" by some self-satisfyingly smug pedant indicates an abuse in its usage. It often muddies the intended meaning, and makes one want to lamp the complainant.
"The gerund is the verb form ending..."

"...the verb form's ending. Gerund."

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
