In this clip: Jill explains that she "screwed up" in landing on a job title when she joined Marketo. The title she chose, Chief Growth Officer, confused everyone within the organization. The title didn't mean anything and it didn't describe her role.
In this episode: Jill Rowley, GTM Advisor & LP at Stage 2 Capital, joins Ethan Beute to share how she began leveraging social networks not for direct selling, but to nurture relationships and connections that eventually lead to sales conversations.
Jill was a pioneering evangelist in organizations like Salesforce, Eloqua, and Marketo and offers advice in this conversation on creating value and mutual benefit in every interaction – with individuals and within your broader ecosystem. She shares the story of being recruited for an evangelist role and reveals a mistake she made in the process.
