The company, founded by longtime revenue leader Michael Gorodisher, is modernizing a deeply outdated process that comes with managing a sales pipeline. “The friction that exists between salespeople and the enterprise systems they are being asked to use is slowing down productivity and leading to poor data hygiene. Salespeople need a quick and seamless way to interact with their pipeline, preferably just by using their phone,” said Gorodisher.
The seed funding will allow Managr to expand its sales, marketing and engineering teams. “We are thrilled and humbled to have support from this cast of investors and technology leaders as we look forward to the year ahead,” said Gorodisher.
