She was successful there and fell in love with selling but realized she wanted to be more in a solution sales role with enterprise companies. Then she went to an SDR role at Influitive before coming to Loopio as a Senior SDR and helped build out the outbound process. Then she became an AE, then a Senior AE and that led her to where she is today. With the intention of achieving 150% of her annual quota in 2017, Carly ended up exceeding her quota every quarter. In Q4, she beat her quarterly number by over 200 percent and hit 170 percent quota attainment for the year.

51: John Reidelbach - Senior Account Executive at Emerson
51: John Reidelbach - Senior Account Executive at Emerson Extensive show notes with links to items mentioned in the show available at: https://top1.fm/51 Pay your dues, keep learning and stay humble. These are John Reidelbach's keys to consistent success selling for Emerson. John has been with Emerson for almost 17 years. He came to Emerson through an Inside Sales Role. He was in Outside Sales for four years prior. When introduced to Emerson, he didn't want to go backwards from Outside Sales to Inside sales. The company felt it was a better fit for the time being so he took the advice and took a step back. He was in the Inside Sales role for 3 ½ years. He then moved into an Outside Sales position when one opened up. He was ready to jump in and has stayed in the role ever since. He had to invest some time in the beginning but it was worth it for him in the long run.
