Zavod Ypsilon

As a person in charge of sales and partnerships within our organisation, I am in touch with many people - building relationships with new prospects and maintaining relationships with current partners and clients.
Therefore I needed and wanted to set up a system in place which would help us track conversations with all our constituents, and even more important to help us support our impact efforts.

By testing a few CRM solutions I came to the conclusion that Salesforce Nonprofit Success Pack (NPSP) was the most suitable solution for our organisation and therefore I decided to implement it and do the administrative work for it.

Salesforce Administrator

As a Program Director I was responsible for program and project development of our organisation, as well as making sure that we are bringing in enough revenue to be financially stable. I am achieving this by partnering our organisation with companies who sponsor our projects or by offering our educational programs and workshops.

Some of my daily tasks and results we have achieved while being in this position:
- Maintaining relationships with our current partners and buyers -> secured renewals with our current partners

- Contacting and building relationships with new, potential partners and buyers -> build relationships and partnerships with some new (potential) partners and buyers

- Selling workshops and seminars to our customer -> by putting sales strategy in place we managed to increase sales and bring new revenue stream

- Building LinkedIn strategy as well as managing Ypsilon Institute’s LinkedIn activities for promotion and partnership development -> rebuilt LinkedIn strategy and took over communication on LinkedIn

- Performing workshops for our buyers on different topics, such as sales, digital marketing, personal branding etc.

- Overseeing organisation of community events as well as larger conferences -> brought LinkedIn Local events to Slovenia and successfully led the organisation of two larger conferences

Program Director - Programs/Revenue/Partnerships

Prior to my arrival, we agreed I will take administration of Slack which was already used within the organization, and that I will implement Asana and take administration of it.
I have successfully implemented and optimised both tools, also with additional apps, and both solutions are still used on a daily basis for work and project management, and collaboration and communication.
