For Sales Leaders

How to adapt your sales machine to acquire and monetize new customers – Cayetana Hurtado, VC, Balderton Capital

Sales teams are the revenue engine for SaaS companies. But when adapting your sales machine to the current environment, to what extent would you scrap outbound prospecting, or restructure your strategy in light of laid-off SDRs? This session breaks down the playbook you need to create dependable and scalable ways to reach customers through different sales channels to close near-term opportunities.

Selling right now: Building a best in class sales machine to acquire and monetize new customers – Steli Efti, CEO, Close

Identify the nuances of outbound and inbound sales strategies, and how to calculate your sales efficiency.

For Customer Champions

Why a ‘customer-first’ strategy for SaaS has never been more important – Lisa Reeves, SVP Product, Zenefits 

If you are not asking your customers “how can I help you”, you’re getting it wrong. Startups fail by allowing customer-facing teams to become siloed, losing the voice of the customer in the process. With everyone working from home, aligning sales, marketing, and customer success is critical to adapting to this new environment.

The future is here: How humans and AI will propel the hybrid workforce – Vasco Pedro, Co-Founder & CEO, Unbabel

The threat of AI taking over our jobs is a belief that many still have today. But the COVID-19 crisis has shown how organizations that are utilizing a hybrid workforce of humans and AI-powered virtual agents have been able to optimize the customer experience. While conversational AI provides 24/7 automated self-service, live agents have more bandwidth to focus on higher-value work that requires personal interactions.

For Pricing and Positioning Pros

For Navigating a Changing Workplace

How to survive and thrive in the post COVID era – David Skok

This time it’s personal: Business ethics & ego in a global recession – Jacco vanderKooij

What got you to this point will not get you to the next point. Many founders achieve success by bucking the trend and ignoring the advice of trusted advisors. That works – until it doesn’t. This point has come for many of us, as the problems we face today are far greater than a single company can tackle. This is the time to put your ego in check and let common sense prevail.
