Zoom Video Communications

The front-line sales manager is the force multiplier of a sales organization. Unfortunately, most revenue teams forget about enabling their most important player. 

Following the “Zoom boom” I had the chance to build Zoom's first sales manager excellence program with the help of an amazing team that was designed to help sales managers excel in their roles, elevate their team's performance, and create a healthy and winning sales culture. 

I had the chance to train hundreds of new and existing managers on cutting-edge coaching strategies, new tools, and leadership best practices.

Sales Enablement Manager, Manager Execution 

After successfully building the training & enablement strategy across Zoom's sales tech stack that was critical for a successful IPO, I got the opportunity to build a specialized team focused on driving strategy, enablement, and innovation of the global sales technology stack. 

We built dynamic sales playbooks, influenced how and when sales tools were used through the sales and buyer journey, drove adoption strategies,  and continued to push the limits on how technology & AI can empower the revenue organization at Zoom. 

We helped the global team accelerate & build pipeline, increase win rates, add predictability to revenue, and enhance Zoom's pipeline management & forecasting process through better use of tools.

Creating the scalability of systems and tools enabled Zoom to scale ($100m - $4B ARR) at a rapid rate during the pandemic where speed and agility were critical.

Manager, Sales Tools Strategy (RevOps)

I was hired to join the nimble sales enablement organization that would end up training & onboarding the core sales team that took Zoom through one of the most successful SaaS IPOs. 

My focus was to maximize ROI and adoption of the sales tech stack through creative training and mapping key sales tools to critical stages of the sales and buyer journeys. 

I created hundreds of training modules, videos, and tutorials, and led 100+ live and virtual training workshops focused on driving sales velocity through better use of sales tools. 

This function was critical in scaling Zoom through a successful IPO and setting the table for hypergrowth.

Have you ever had to explain how to do something digitally? 

You take some screenshots, add graphics, text overlays or whip out your camera and record a video. 

Before you know it two hours has passed, all to explain a 3 minute task.

Then you send it off to the recipient and they get overwhelmed trying to open a second screen between your explanation and actually doing the task side by side. 

What if you could create a screen shot-less, GPS-like tutorial experience that was interactive and engaging in seconds instead of hours?

Insert iorad.

We track ourselves on one metric: Speed.

How fast can we help you get your knowledge from the people who have it to the people need it. 

Break up with screenshots for good.
