Founder and CEO

Trusted insights about sales orgs available to candidates during the hiring process is non-existent, resulting in a hiring experience that is unbalanced and flawed.  This has manifested itself in skyrocketing attrition, dropping quota attainment, and reps in roles that are not a fit.  RepVue is challenging this status quo and flipping the odds to the favor of the candidate during the hiring process.

Work in a sales organization?  Anonymously and objectively rate your experience with that employer today at RepVue.com.

Software is dead, AI is killing it. It's over.

Also, Anthropic needs to hire a Salesforce admin. Anthropic is using Salesforce. Someone at Salesforce closed this deal.

A bunch of people at Anthropic will be using Salesforce.
To manage pipelines.
To manage customers.
To optimize selling.

Is there massive disruption?  Yes.  
Is software dead? No.

You might not care at all to hear my opinion on this but if you're in a position where you're speaking with customers and prospects (on the phone, in person), you've never really been more valuable.

Nearly 1,400 GTM roles that will allow you to do just that across 15,000 company profiles (salaries, quota attainment, etc) https://lnkd.in/ePbZbzRB
