Questions
Hiring salespeople in San Francisco.
Can you hire our first salesperson?
Yes. A founding account executive has to sell without a playbook or a brand behind them, so we look for reps who have done that at an early-stage company and can show the numbers.
Do you cover Silicon Valley and the East Bay?
Yes. San Francisco, San Jose, Palo Alto, Oakland and the rest of the Bay Area, as well as remote roles anywhere in the U.S.
How do you check a SaaS rep’s numbers?
We ask for quota and attainment by year, average deal size, sales cycle and how much of their pipeline they built themselves, then confirm it with references.
Do you recruit for AI companies?
