      I was an Account Executive for Vengreso. I was responsible for helping clients and their sales teams create more sales conversations by leveraging modern sales prospecting techniques. Vengreso is the world's largest Modern Sales Transformation company, servicing clients from small business professionals to global enterprises. Collectively we've educated over 140K professionals, allowing sellers to prospect better and smarter, while at the same time creating more sales meetings. In the past, sales leaders would tell their sellers to "connect on LinkedIn" or "send a video" to their prospect. Sound familiar? When was the last time you gave a new seller with no cold-calling experience a phone and said, "go make cold-calls" without the proper skills training? We'd never put a seller on the phone without providing them the proper phone skills training like: the 30-second phone pitch, the proper phone voice, how to overcome objections, etc. Why then, do we believe sellers can be effective and produce results when leveraging a new prospecting medium (LinkedIn, video or text) without the proper skills training? Enter Vengreso. We provide the modern sales skills training to fill that gap. Our four founders not only are social media, marketing and sales influencers, but they have also walked a mile in your shoes. In fact, our CEO Mario Martinez Jr. was invited to speak at LinkedIn's Annual Users conference. He presented (as a former VP of Sales) on how his sales organization achieved: 1️⃣ 100% rep adoption of LinkedIn Sales Navigator and a Video Sales Acceleration platform and 2️⃣ 100% of the reps added at least one sales opportunity to the pipeline This is why some of the world's largest telecommunications providers, insurance carriers, B2B professional services companies, and thousands of individuals turn to us to help them create more sales conversations.
