I lead a 65+ person team that works on sales and business strategy, customer success (account management, onboarding, customer support, coaching, and revenue delivery) and end-to-end sales operations. I support two distinct business lines, the New Construction marketplace, which works with 1,000+ new home builders, and our Marketing Ad Platforms team, which powers marketing branding ad products across Zillow Group. The New Construction marketplace was the fastest growing marketplace at Zillow Group in 2017 and is slated to repeat that achievement in 2018. Together with the Sales and Product teams, we quickly launched in January 2016, just three months after scoping the opportunity and designing the go-to-market plan. Since that launch, we have scaled revenue nearly 4x, grown headcount over 10x, and have become more deeply integrated within the New Construction industry. I act as the de-facto General Manager for our New Construction business, lead overall business strategy and work closely with our Product org to ensure product solutions balance both consumer and advertiser needs for long-term, scalable success. The sales operations and customer success teams manage all post-sale processes and functions to ensure delivery of five-star service as well as competitive ROI to advertising partners. I also support our Marketing Ad Solutions within Zillow Group and act as the GM for our Display platform, which support the marketing ad products for the majority of our marketplaces (Premier Agent, Brand, Rentals, New Construction, Broker, and Streeteasy). We have engineered a fully native ad platform that drives rich content based on listings and profiles across the network. This platform drives media both on Zillow Group’s family of websites as well as on Facebook and other display ad networks. Recently, we extended this platform offline by reaching Zillow’s targeted audience via direct mail.

I lead a team that grows top-line revenue & increases customer engagement by delivering actionable data-driven insights to advertisers. We mine raw Hadoop logfiles using Toku and SQL to uncover insights and deliver recommendations directly to our largest advertisers. Once the insights have proven successful, the team works closely with the Product and Engineering teams to incorporate new functionality into the product so we can support all our advertisers at scale. I personally attend strategic business reviews with our top advertisers and present insights in concert with our Sales and Service teams. Since launching the team we have doubled our network monetization while increasing advertiser performance and our advertisers consistently call our team the most “analytical” and “data-savvy” they work with.

I launched a new team that focused on delivering actionable data insights to many of the largest advertisers at Google. The team was built to deliver unique data and bid / expansion opportunities to Google’s largest advertisers. I built a team that worked closely with our Ads Product and Ads Sales teams to understand key drivers of account expansions as well as key pain points for our largest advertisers. We build several custom toolkits for large advertisers which were incorporated into the Opportunities Tab in AdWords in subsequent quarters (Custom Benchmarking, Query Classification, Bid Simulation). The team drove over $200M in incremental revenue in the first year of founding and ultimately the insights and learnings were scaled into AdWords and into the structure of the Advertiser Sales & Account Management teams.

I was in charge of Google’s North American Sales & Operations (NASO) strategy, operations and planning functions. I helped to lead the Annual Business Planning process for all of NASO’s business units. I work with Senior Leadership to set the overall goaling and compensation strategy for the sales teams, and the corresponding grading to drive the sales team’s performance. In addition, I managed Headcount Planning for NASO, including allocation of headcount to the appropriate Industry Segments and Regions, to drive productivity and top-line revenue growth for NASO. In order to serve our customers better and move to a multi-platform advertising sales team, I helped to lead and implement the largest sales re-organization in Google’s short history. The entire process was completed in less than six months time and included re-assigning named accounts, the core sales and service structure, as well as re-alignment of staff. In addition to this project, I drove the integration of Google’s F1000 and Small-to-Medium Business (SMB) Channel together which required the build out of an entire service channel within three months.

I joined Google as the first “channel-dedicated” Operations & Strategy person and started supporting Google’s existing SMB channel. We grew the channel more than double in revenue in a little over one year and grew the GBS Operations team from two people to ten in the same time, and implemented comprehensive business planning, strategic reviews, and several large initiatives. The most complex involved moving the average size of company the sales team called on from under $3M to nearly $50M. This involved the creation of the first-ever Named Account List for the GBS team which led to the marked improvement in the customer profile.The team also revamped the GBS hiring strategy and operations in late 2006, and proceeded to ramp up hiring over 400% over the previous six months. I helped grow Google’s first operational CRM tool internally into a productivity and tracking tool used by sales reps and sales management to improve performance and revenue. These achievements led to the decision in mid-2007 to merge with the larger sales team and use the high-quality sales team and operations capability to help acquire and grow even larger accounts (see above).
