Enterprise Business Development Representative

SkyWay Technologies Co.

Sales Development Representative

When I first moved to London, I knew very little about tech sales.

I quickly realized that the fast-paced environment was exactly what I was looking for, and soon found myself immersed in the BDR world.

Bit by bit, I learned the sales process and developed strategies that helped me succeed.

I studied the craft of sales relentlessly, learning from every conversation, every win, and every loss.

Patterns started to emerge, and I developed a framework — a blend of data-driven strategies and personalized engagement — that helped me consistently exceed my targets.

As my framework solidified, I transitioned into a new role: sharing what I’d learned with others.

My shift from individual contributor to management came when I realized I could not only drive my own success but also empower others to do the same.

In this new chapter, my focus shifted from pipeline generation to people development.

I don’t just want my teams to hit their numbers — I want them to build meaningful, sustainable careers.

I work closely with each team member, tailoring coaching to their individual strengths, and I’ve watched them grow into high performers.

It wasn’t long before I was recognized as one of the top Sales Leaders for FY24 at LaunchDarkly and earned a spot in the President's Club.

Today, my leadership is driven by the same principle that took me from BDR to manager: with the right framework, support, and guidance, anyone can achieve their full potential.

Connect with me if you're new to tech sales and want to learn more, or if you're seasoned and eager to share best practices.

OSOM

Product Manager

Product Manager at OSOM

Hello! 👋 I'm Charlotte, a Product Manager at OSOM. I'm interested in crypto, DeFi, web3 and fintech - anything that's disruptive and has the potential to change the world. Crypto is my main area of focus at present, and I believe offers a powerful opportunity to make financial services more efficient, accessible, fair, and user-friendly. 

I come from a technical background, having studied Business/Managerial Economics at Newcastle University. My first job was in sales and customer services, where I learned the importance of strong communication and analytical thinking. These skills have been invaluable in my current role as a product manager - it's my job to develop products that meet the needs of our users, and to communicate these products effectively to the team.

I'm also a mother of two young children, so I know the importance of flexibility and efficiency when it comes to working from home or on the go. I love hiking, travelling, and wild swimming in my free time.
