@johngilbert
I build high-performing inside sales teams that exceed enterprise revenue targets.
What I'm looking for
I've led inside sales and program management engagements for AMD, Siemens, Cisco, Cisco Webex, and TD SYNNEX, building teams, improving sales operations, and driving sustained revenue performance.
At AMD, I built an inside sales motion that exceeded quota for 10 consecutive quarters and averaged 130% attainment. At TD SYNNEX, I led a Salesforce migration and reporting transformation that supported a sales team averaging 115% of client performance targets while improving renewal performance to 90%.
I bring 12+ years of B2B sales, customer success, renewals, forecasting, channel management, and global sales leadership experience. I enjoy turning around underperforming teams, scaling go-to-market motions, and creating clear performance visibility for sales leaders and stakeholders.
