Being able to help organizations that are suffering from inefficient prospecting, inconsistent deal management, and inaccurate revenue forecasting is the most rewarding part of this role. I am excited to join the passionate group of innovators at Outreach to deliver solutions that help organizations close their sales execution gaps.”
