We are excited to share our first annual Sales Women to Watch. The idea for this list came after having conversation after conversation with amazing females sales professionals who were leading their teams, leading their companies, or leading women in their industry. These are women who embodied our values of being trail blazers, risk takers, people developers, and esteem builders and we wanted to shine the spotlight on them.
Last year I was fueled to write an article about the challenges of being a new or expectant mother in a software startup after attending SaaStr Annual 2018.
Today we have a very special guest on the blog. Ed Porter, CRO, is a favorite among our #GirlsClub community. He joined as a mentor and is an incredible supporter of #GirlsClub.
One of the greatest benefits of #GirlsClub is our bonus activities that allow our community to connect and build relationships with people they might never have met otherwise.
Since launching #GirlsClub in April this year, I’ve had takeaways and lessons learned that I couldn’t have imagined I’d have. It’s been eye-opening and what we’ve learned at #GirlsClub is powerful.
December 7th was our biggest webinar event ever in #GirlsClub during which we welcomed some of the industry’s top experts to speak about sales’ biggest issue: why more women aren’t in sales leadership.
We are so thrilled to announce that #GirlsClub has officially launched. Since we first announced its inception a the 2018 AA-ISP Leadership Summit, we’ve received overwhelming support and excitement about the program. We’re unbelievably honored.
Everyone’s talking about it. Even though studies have shown that women outperform men in sales*, they still aren’t being hired, retained and promoted at the same rate as men.
Next time you’re in a company all-hands, in a manager meeting, or just sitting at your desk, take a look around. How many female sales reps do you see? How many female managers do you see? What about female sales leaders? Yeesh.
