- Drive Product Adoption: Partner with Product to drive adoption of new and existing Float products through thoughtful content, enablement, and integrated multi-channel campaigns. Lead the charge on initiatives that contribute to post-sales revenue growth and long-term retention, while keeping the team focused on delivering a delightful customer experience.
- Leverage Data and Research: Conduct research and competitive analysis to inform GTM approaches, leveraging data and insights to ensure Float's offerings are competitive and differentiated. Serve as a market and customer expert for your portfolio.
- Act as Cross-Functional Liaison: Equip GTM teams with the product knowledge, content and training they need to sell effectively and drive conversion. Go deep to surface and understand the perspectives of various business stakeholders, translating insights into impactful product and marketing strategies.
