Design and run POCs/pilots for Virtual Agent: scope use cases, success criteria, guardrails; align on KPIs (containment, AHT, CSAT) with clear executive outcomes.
Sell to the C-suite and functional leaders (CX/Support, Digital, Operations, IT/Security, Procurement); orchestrate multi-threaded deals and consensus.
Partner cross-functionally with Solutions Engineering, Product, and Marketing to remove friction, tighten messaging, and bring voice-of-customer back to the roadmap.
Use executive leverage (internal and partner leadership) to accelerate cycles and secure top-level sponsorship.
Forecast with rigor in Salesforce; maintain clean stages, MEDDICC/MEDDPICC notes, next steps, and mutual close plans.
Shape our motion—from messaging and pricing inputs to enablement materials—so the team scales on a single, clear narrative.
