Perfect Venue
Founding Head of Sales
Perfect Venue, San Francisco, California, United States, 94199
HIGHLIGHTSIf you've been a sales leader at early-stage SaaS startups, this is a great opportunity
to move into a Head of Sales role where you will lead all prospecting and closing efforts and report to the CEO.It's a great time to join as you’re
early enough to have a significant impact, but not so early that we don’t already have a strong product
and repeatable sales process (hundreds of paying customers, #1 on G2, etc).This is a front-line leadership role.
You will get to build an in-person sales culture at our SF office and get in the weeds by coaching reps, co-selling larger deals, and doing what it takes to win.ABOUT PERFECT VENUEPrivate events and catering can significantly increase restaurant revenue, but many restaurants are stuck using outdated, error-prone manual processes - unlike the sophisticated software employed by large chains.
Perfect Venue is leveling the playing field by offering local restaurants an affordable, user-friendly, event management tool to help local restaurants compete with big chains.
This is just the start, with plans to expand into a broader marketplace that includes venues and other event services (DJs, florists, etc).Recently featured in
TechCrunch , Fortune, Axios, Eater, and others.OUR CULTURE & VALUESWe love helping people.
Above all, we see our job as solving our customers' problems. Small business owners work tirelessly to serve their customers, and we work just as hard to serve them.
