Chief Revenue Officer of Calendly,Jessica Gilmartin, is today's guest on That's What I Call Marketing. Today we cover so much in a fascinating and fun conversation that is a great insight for not just marketers but for sales people too. We discuss the ways Jessica found support and mentorship on her pretty unconventional career journey, we talk about the importance of finding passion, maintaining intellectual curiosity, and the constant evolution of marketing as a discipline. We go deep on the topic of international marketing, highlighting the necessity of understanding how to cut through the noise, understand what really matters and where and when to get really local, something that Diplomat Agency has been set up to support scaling companies with. Jessica is a leader that oozes empathy and we talk about her approach to creating a supportive culture as a leader, being a thoughtful leader and not having all the answers. We cover product led growth, insights into how to best align sales and marketing and practical advice for any salespeople out there trying to target CMO’s you are probably getting it all wrong.


And we uncover something that we can’t tell Jessicas boss.
