Cynthia Barnes

Founder and CEO

I spent 20 years building frameworks that made other people rich.

Sales methodologies that became "company best practices." Training programs that got renamed and rolled out without my name attached. Revenue strategies that showed up in Brad's promotion announcement while I got a 2.3% raise and a note about "executive presence."

I documented everything. Exposed the math. Calculated the extraction.

$847,000.

That's the average lifetime wage gap for a Black woman in corporate America. Not a metaphor. Not a feeling. An invoice that never got paid.

So I stopped asking for raises. Started building infrastructure.

---

What I do now:

I build the sales architecture for Black women executives exiting corporate—so they can convert 20+ years of extracted expertise into high-ticket consulting contracts.

No pitching. No shrinking. No explaining your worth to people who've never had to prove theirs.

We don't coach. We build:
→ The offer that positions your expertise for C-Suite buyers
→ The pricing model that kills hourly rates forever
→ The proof assets that sell before you get on a call
→ The pipeline that fills your calendar without "networking"
→ The IP protection that ensures your frameworks stay yours

90 days. Proof to pipeline. Your expertise finally has your name on it.

This is for you if:

↳ You've built frameworks inside companies that got attributed to someone else
↳ You left (or you're leaving) and you're done being the secret weapon
↳ You have 15-25 years of expertise but no language to sell it
↳ You're tired of courses that teach theory—you want assets built
↳ You understand that Brad isn't the problem; the system is—and you're ready to build outside of it

---

This is NOT for you if:

↳ You're looking for mindset work, mantras, or manifestation
↳ You want someone to convince you your expertise has value
↳ You're still hoping the company will "finally see" you
↳ You need hand-holding through basic business decisions
↳ You think "putting yourself out there" is a strategy

---

I'm not here to help you get a seat at their table.

I'm here to help you build your own—and send them the invoice.

RevOps Marketplace CEO | Pioneering remote hiring solutions in LATAM | Empowering companies to hire skilled talent at competitive costs l 4.9⭐️on G2

I built CloudTask because hiring sales talent is broken.

US companies post jobs and get hundreds of unvetted applicants. 

They pay recruiters placement fees regardless of outcome. 

They try offshore and get overnight shifts and communication gaps. 

I knew there had to be a better way.

Most of our clients come to us because:

- They need sales talent who can ramp in weeks, not months
- They want to see verified skills and results before the first call
- They are tired of paying fees for hires that do not work out
- They need US timezone coverage without domestic costs

CloudTask is the managed marketplace for SaaS skilled remote professionals in Latin America. 

Post a role, receive curated matches within 48 hours, interview as many candidates as needed, and pay only when the right hire is made. 

Every profile shows verified experience with tools like HubSpot, Salesforce, Outreach, Gong, Zendesk, and Intercom.

- Since 2016, we have completed over 2,000 placements. 
- 85% of hires stay past 90 days. 
- Average tenure is 24 months. 

If you sell software and need SDRs, BDRs, Account Executives, or CSMs who work US business hours natively, post a role and meet qualified candidates this week.

Vision: Every business is a lifestyle business.

Mission: Help 10,000 businesses transition to the right cloud software, which means their teams will get work done better, faster, and cheaper so they have more opportunities to enjoy the fruits of their labor.

- Set company strategies and direction.
- Model and guide the company culture, values, and behavior for maximum efficiency and healthy growth. 
- Build and lead our fast-growing sales, support, and executive teams. 
- Hone and optimize our product and service offerings. 
- Oversee and manage team building, brand management, investor relations, and overall corporate development.

Big watch out for anyone running LATAM teams, especially Colombia.

If you hired Colombian talent on fixed USD-equivalent pay in early 2025, many of them are effectively earning materially less today due to -17.2% currency swings while still absorbing local inflation around 5%. 

So their paycheck just went down 22.3%

That delta is real money in daily life.

Here’s the risk most US leaders miss: culturally, strong performers rarely raise this directly. 

They do not complain. 
They quietly start looking.

We’re seeing a spike in top-rated, already-employed talent landing new roles through our marketplace. 

Not because they were unhappy. 
Because their purchasing power dropped and they needed to correct it.

If you don’t proactively have this conversation, your best people will solve it for you by leaving.

Question for operators: are you checking real purchasing power, or just assuming retention equals satisfaction?

Founder & CEO | I help SaaS companies hire LATAM sales talent through a managed marketplace. If you want SDRs, BDRs, or CSMs who work US hours, post on CloudTask and get curated matches in 48 hours.
