Learn about TRM Speed in this position:

• The APAC sales team identifies an event happening in two weeks that they want to attend that is not in our plans. We evaluate the event to determine if it’s worth our investment, and develop a skateboard participation plan. Rather than sponsoring the event, we purchase passes for sales to attend, help them set meetings, and plan a happy hour.
• We want to enter a new priority market in APAC where we have little to no brand awareness. Rather than having the mindset that “PR takes a long time,” we identify a narrow list of outlets and trade bodies and run an initial blitz.
• The sales team wants to target 10 APAC countries this quarter. We know that we can only reach 5 effectively. We practice ruthless prioritization by leveraging pipeline and ARR targets to narrow the list of countries we will focus on, running sprints in those markets before evaluating the next set.
