Sales Director | 10 years Sober | CrossFit L1

11 years ago, I got sober. That decision didn't just change my life it completely rewired how I approach sales, leadership, and relationships. I learned discipline, authenticity, and the power of showing up consistently, even when it's hard. I learned that trust is earned through action, not words. And I learned that real growth happens when you stop chasing shortcuts and commit to the process.

Those lessons shaped everything I do today.

I've taken two companies from just over $1M ARR to nearly $3M ARR while building the playbook, running the plays, and scaling the team. I've hired, coached, and managed BDRs, AEs and AMs. I've closed complex deals, run POCs, and consistently hit quota by focusing on what actually works: genuine relationships, strategic outreach, and a relentless commitment to the process.

Now, I'm bringing that same intensity to Clinically.ai the intelligence platform for behavioral health.

We help organizations enhance documentation quality, support compliance, and free up clinicians to focus on what matters most: delivering world-class care. Our AI works alongside clinicians, never replacing them. We offer tools for AI documentation, real-time chart auditing, clinical supervision support, and referral intelligence all designed to give behavioral health teams more time, more clarity, and more confidence.

This work is personal. Behavioral health saved my life. Now I get to help the organizations and clinicians doing that same life-saving work operate more effectively, reduce burnout, and focus on the people who need them most.

I don't just manage pipelines. I fill them. I don't just hit quota. I build the systems that make it repeatable.

If you're leading a behavioral health organization and want to explore how Clinically.ai can support your team, let's talk.

My AVP at Salesforce to me on last day of the fiscal year: “Thank you for not listening to me.” 😐

Let’s roll the clocks back 9 months prior.

I took over an account. Not just any, but the largest bank in the country.

My AVP - who was the AE on the account years ago - pulled me aside my first few weeks in role and said, 

“Salman, just take down the small deal in this account. We’ve sold them almost everything.” 

Not exactly what I wanted to hear from my AVP when I took over the account.

They’d already invested quite a bit with us, I get it. But I had a quota to hit. A big one.

Nobody thought we could sell them more. 

There was a small opp… and they recommended I just take it down

and move on.

……………………………………………..

Well, here’s what I did to prove them wrong 👇


BACKGROUND CHECK

- spoke to the CSM, SE, Core teams
- specialists, external partners, SI’s, etc…
- to get the lay of the land across the account


- identified a segment that had whitespace
- it was their Wealth management division


BUILT A POINT OF VIEW

- did some initial digging and discovery
- built PoV on how they may be losing rev to competiton
- because of insights not captured in real-time on digital channels


STARTED WITH THE PROBLEM

- focused on this business challenge
- uncovered a exec priority at risk because of problem
(increased market share)


MULTITHREAD

- the PoV + disco helped gain meetings with Dir/VPs
- leveraged our internal x-functional teams
- SE, CSM, Business Value, Product mgmt, etc…


VALIDATION + ALIGNMENT

- business problem, impact to the business
- uncovered metrics important to each stakeholder 
- how said metrics were being affected by problem
- impact to business if nothing actioned on


CUSTOMER’S BEST INTEREST BEFORE OURS

- shared pros and cons to each option
- options included ones that wouldn’t work in our favor
- we didn’t take one side or other, which built trust


CO-CREATED BUSINESS CASE

- with our champion
- got buy-in from each stakeholder


MUTUAL PLAN

- which was truly MUTUAL 


NO BUDGET WAS ALLOCATED

- we uncovered a problem that put a priority at risk
- they dug up budget from other areas of business

………………………………………..

The result?

Our champion achieved the 1% club, because of the impact the platform had on their segment.

I closed one of the largest deals of my career 

because our internal teams worked together to solve a big problem.

Hit almost 200% of my number (when I was told to take down the small deal)


The deal came on the last day of the fiscal year and the AVP sent me a message,

“Thank you for not listening to me”

………………………………………………………

I took my AVP’s statement at the start of the year as a challenge.

Don’t let a few words stop you from accomplishing something you believe you can do.
