Work History

Senior Marketing Operations Manager

Motive
01.2023 - Current
  • Gained ownership, collaborated with all business stakeholders and co-developed in-house marketing reporting housed in our CDP(Snowflake) - Phase 2. Resulting in 90% of reporting that previously took 30 hrs./ week to instantly view within few minutes in Tableau.
  • Identified ICP and developed customer lifecycle to majorly focus on retention, adaption, expansion, and acquisition. This data was used to make decisions on how we can improve our customer experience.
  • Cross-functional team collaboration, involving workshops, strategy discussions, planning, execution, sales training, enablement, refinements, support, reporting and builds to enhance features/implement new platforms for the needs of the business based on the new verticals the company was moving into.
  • With increasing efforts on winning upper market deals, we saw the need to partner with Content team to tailor personalized messaging that was surfaced through website, email, in-app, direct mails and every other source. It led to increase in engagement and helping Motive to act as an Market leader for many of the safety functionality.
  • Moving upmarket was crucial so does having the functionality for booking live meetings & chatting in real time. But this had a direct impact on sales so there were a lot of internal discussions and finally we agreed on using Qualfied for all upmarket. Building the project plan, design flow, Sales training, SDR/AE alignment, integrations, alignment with Sales Ops, defining RR rules, routing, setting up forms, reporting, and what not, we were able to setup both chat and forms meeting scheduler. In a span of 3 months, we were able to generate 355K of pipeline.
  • Planned & executed implementation of Hushly for initially building microsites for the upper market prospects/customers to support our ABM initiatives. Close partnership with DG,content,web & the ABM team delivered huge success in building a content hub that was long awaited.
  • Coaching, building, training and developing a high performing MOPs team.
  • Re-defined, analyzed, built, and executed business go-to-market strategies with systems, processes, data, and people
  • Identified, strategized, led, planned, collaborated, managed, and executed transformation projects.
  • Inbound calls was a key contributor to our pipeline but due to lack of proper tracking we were hand cuffed to make any recommendations or experimentations. Invoca was the platform we implemented after understanding our pain point, enabling us with rich metadata to make any data driven recommendations and simultaneously conduct experiments at scale.
  • With Invoca, we were able to know all the keywords used for making calls that led to qualified deals. Partnering with Performance Marketing team for experimenting on phone numbers in paid Ads channels like Google, Bing, LinkedIn led to an increase in 55%. Based on the insights, we adjusted allocating budget to places where it had greater impact.
  • Partnered with our web team to migrate Google Analytics to Amplitude ensuring there is no impact on existing web reporting.
  • Led Ampltiude’s project planning, taxonomy definitions, integration,GTM implementation(tag manager) & flow design for go-to-market systems by collaborating with web & other business functions to be able to tie web interactions with our core metrics.
  • In-app was a channel that was under developed and never focused for Marketing. The buyer journey was incomplete due to multiple platforms were used to track web vs mobile. Working with engineering teams, we migrated the mobile apps from platforms like statsig, mixpanel to unify it with the one we planned to use for our web app i.e Pendo. Due to lack of ownership, Pendo was in a non-usable state and our role was to equip our Marketing team to be able to run upsell campaigns effectively. Developed Pendo from scratch for Motive’s Marketing use cases in close collaboration with multiple business functions & finally established a end-to-end flow for any in-app initiatives. Result: 900K in pipeline and 350K closed won deals!
  • Revamped 6Sense by creating persona’s which resulting better AD reach, adding signals from listing websites such as G2, Buyer Discovery, and Trust radius. Segment and Orchestration was re-configured based on the business needs.
  • Data inconsistency was a major problem due to duplicates and unvalidated emails in the system. With collaboration, Sales enablement, sales training, identification of duplication root cause & fixes, implementation of an universal email validation process, and merging of duplicates we were able to help the business increase lead to account matching, save more on database, easy & clean reporting, and processes getting faster for handing a qualified lead to sales.
  • Established best practices for data governance and created custom alerts for all systems monitoring/health checks.
  • Led the strategy, planning, Implementation, enablement, sales alignment, cross functional communications, and reporting for multiple other platforms like Goldcast(Webinars), Captello(Smaller Events), Cvent(Larger Events), SalesLoft(Sales Outreach) and G2crowd & Trust radius (listing websites).
