分享XFactor，這是一家革命性的上市和年度運營計劃的新公司，在光速創投公司(Lightspeed Venture Partners)及其家人和朋友領投的1000萬美元種子輪融資後成立。XFactor由Mike Carpenter創立，他是一位資深的銷售領導者，最近在CrowdStrike擔任全球銷售和現場運營總裁。XFactor為企業、初創公司和風險投資家提供技術和服務，使年度運營計劃現代化，並消除不必要的市場風險。在今天的發布會之後，該公司將推出其上市平台，該平台利用人工智能提供實時數據和智能建模，以實現始終在線的運營規劃。進入市場和運營計劃傳統上是以孤立的方式執行的，基於不足的數據和主觀性。這種過時的方法會導致優先級不一致和糟糕的決策，從而影響到底線。真正的成長和成功需要一個始終開放、透明和統一的運營計劃——這就是XFactor平台的作用。XFactor創始人兼聯合首席執行官邁克•卡朋特表示:“如今，每個企業都依賴於成功的年度運營計劃來促進增長並保持競爭優勢，但從曆史上看，這一過程一直受到許多因素的製約。”“XFactor的誕生是為了從根本上改變公司進入市場和年度運營計劃的方式，因為現實是變化是不斷的。XFactor利用人工智能、市場研究和智能方麵的創新來創建一個可擴展的平台，提供全年做出最佳決策所需的洞察力，確保根據組織的商業計劃實現持久增長。”今天，該公司推出了托管服務和執行委員會。 The XFactor Executive Council is a group of expert advisors from across the technology industry that will provide proof-of-concept and product market fit analysis for startup founders and investors. The first Executive Council member advisors include Bryan Bayless VP, GTM Operations at Gong; Brad Hargrave, VP, WW Sales & Revenue Operations at Proofpoint; Martin Bally, Chief Information Security Officer for Campbell Soup Company; and Anthony Belfiore, Chief Security Officer at Wiz. Blake Sallé, Chief Revenue Officer at Proofpoint, will serve as the first member of XFactor’s Board of Directors, leveraging his go-to-market expertise and years of experience scaling companies across industries. “Now more than ever, startups and VCs are concerned with scalability and ROI as relentless innovation increases competition,” said Blake Sallé, founding member of XFactor’s Board of Directors. “XFactor’s Executive Council offering affords experienced business leaders the unique opportunity to work hand-in-hand with the next generation of founders, harnessing their expertise to provide support and guidance for their go-to-market strategy efforts.” Related Posts XFactor’s Managed Services provide ongoing support for customers to optimize planning, sales, and revenue operations.
