Quotes

“I see demand as aligning with sales teams. What are the goals? What do we have to hit? How does that break down? What are we going to be sourcing? Managing the SDR team, a large part of their pipeline and funnel is going to be coming from the demand, go-to-market organization of marketing, and sales development. Really that’s a key part of success, sales alignment.” - Meagen Eisenberg
