The Twenty Minute VC: Venture Capital | Startup Funding | The Pitch
Chad Peets is one of the greatest sales leaders and recruiters of the last 25 years. From 2018 to 2023, Chad was a Managing Director at Sutter Hill Ventures. Chad has worked with the world's best CEOs and CROs to build world-class go-to-market organizations. Chad is currently a member of the Board of Directors for Lacework and Luminary Cloud and on the boards of Clumio and Sigma Computing. He previously served as a board member for Astronomer, Transposit, and others. He was an early-stage investor at Snowflake, Sigma, Observe, Lacework, and Clumio. In Today's Discussion with Chad Peet's We Discuss: 1. You Need a CRO Pre-Product: Why does Chad believe that SaaS companies need a CRO pre-product? Should the founder not be the right person to create the sales playbook? What should the founder look for in their first CRO hire? Does any great CRO really want to go back to an early startup and do it again? 2. What Everyone Gets Wrong in Building Sales Teams: Why are most sales reps not performing? How long does it take for sales teams to ramp? How does this change with PLG and enterprise? What are the benchmarks of good vs great for average sales reps? How do founders and VCs most often hurt their sales teams and performance? 3. How to Build a Hiring Machine: What are the single biggest mistakes people make when hiring sales reps and teams? Are sales people money motivated? How to create comp plans that incentivise and align? Why does Chad believe that any sales rep that does not want to be in the office, is not putting their career and development first? Why is it harder than ever to recruit great sales leaders today? 4. Lessons from Scaling Sales at Snowflake: What are the single biggest lessons of what worked from scaling Snowflake's sales team? What did not work? What would he do differently with the team again? What did Snowflake teach Chad about success and culture and how they interplay together?

In this episode of Run the Numbers, CJ Gustafson sits down with Sam Jacobs, Founder and CEO of Pavilion, the global community for GTM leaders. Sam shares how getting fired multiple times as a CRO led him to build a business rooted in belonging — one that monetized members first, prioritized intimacy over growth, and turned a Slack group into a multimillion-dollar company. He and CJ unpack the mechanics of community: the tradeoffs between exclusivity and expansion, why venture capital doesn't always fit human-centered businesses, and how Pavilion balances pricing, curation, and access. They also explore the evolution of the GTM function — from the myth of the plug-and-play VP of Sales to how AI is reshaping RevOps, forecasting, and leadership. Finally, Sam reflects on building durable value beyond personal brand and what it really takes to scale trust as a product.—LINKS:Sam Jacobs on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/samfjacobs/Company: https://www.joinpavilion.com/CJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: https://www.mostlymetrics.com—RELATED EPISODES:E120: What does the future of tech look like when it costs $0 to switch software?https://www.youtube.com/live/Cpw2pkq-FXI?si=-0y0tcLTIlIbkmyOCFOs: Want to Outmaneuver Your Competitors?

A CMO Confidential Interview with Mike Walrath, Chairman and CEO of Yext, Inc., formerly CEO of Right Media, and SVP at Yahoo! Mike discusses what he believes is the collapse of the marketing funnel, the need to understand how AI consumes data while judgement stays with consumers, and how an "influence marketing" mindset is emerging. Key topics include: why CMOs will need to be both great brand strategists as well as scientists, the need to constantly distribute information and "tend it like a garden," and why Reddit is great for training AI, but not as important in building brand influence. Tune in to hear a story about why you shouldn't let ChatGPT talk in an unsupervised forum and why Land Rover should send me a polo shirt. This week, Mike Linton sits down with Mike Walrath, Chairman & CEO of @yext (and founder of WGI Group), to unpack why the classic awareness–consideration–conversion funnel is collapsing—and what CMOs must do next. From zero-click discovery and AI agents “front-ending” consumers to why structured first-party data now beats pretty websites, Walrath maps the new rules for brand, distribution, and measurement in an AI-led marketplace.We cover: how consideration gets outsourced to AI, why marketers will “market to agents” (without controlling the ad copy), the coming arms race in citations and data distribution, and what organizational fixes boards and CMOs should make now. If you own brand, growth, or P&L accountability, this is a playbook for the next chapter.**Sponsor — @typefaceai Typeface helps the world's biggest brands move from brief to fully personalized campaigns in hours, not months.

Cell and gene therapies are transforming modern medicine, but their path to market is fast and complex. They often jump from small trials to global launch at record speed, putting pressure on analytics, supply chains, and partnerships.

Send us a textIn this episode of The Advanced Selling Podcast, Bryan Neale sits down with longtime friend and sales veteran Vince Beese, a fractional CRO and sales coach with over 25 years of B2B enterprise experience and five successful exits under his belt. Together, they dive deep into “Red Zone Selling:” a framework inspired by football that helps sellers stay focused, avoid complacency, and close more deals when it matters most.Vince breaks down how 80–90% of enterprise deals are won or lost in the “red zone” (the final stage of the sales process) and why too many sellers lose focus right when the game gets toughest. Bryan and Vince explore the mindset, discipline, and team coordination required to execute in high-stakes moments and turn opportunities into wins.They also tackle one of the biggest gaps in modern sales leadership: the lack of attention on closing. While most training and enablement focus on top-of-funnel activities, elite sales organizations put just as much energy into finishing strong.-Curious about certification in the Blind Zebra Sales Operating System?

Fresh out of the studio, Ralph Haupter, President & CRO, Small Medium Enterprises and Channels at Microsoft, joins us to explore how Microsoft is empowering 400 million small and medium businesses globally across 56 counties through a partner-first strategy that combines platform standardization with deep specialization. He shares his career journey spanning over 20 years at Microsoft, from running Europe to leading Greater China, building Asia's geographical operations in Singapore, and eventually taking on global SME strategy. Ralph explains that Microsoft's unique advantage lies in being a platform company at its finest, offering a complete technology stack from productivity to infrastructure, security, and applications—all with core AI integration—while relying on a specialized partner ecosystem to deliver local expertise and support. He highlights how partners are creating entirely new business models on agentic AI while emphasizing the four critical partnership moments from transaction to ongoing support that most companies neglect. Closing the conversation, Ralph shares what great looks like for Microsoft. “The partner program for us is a place where we want to have expertise for our customers. The only way to make that happen is to standardize on portfolio and standardize on offering.If you don't provide standardized offers — if the experience in Word, for example, is different in one country than in another — you can't build an ecosystem that helps partners scale with expertise. I call that a platform company at its finest.We have the full assortment — from the productivity world to infrastructure, security, and applications. And if you're a small or medium enterprise, the last thing you want is to have four meetings with four people, serving four different types of coffee to four different vendors, just to get a full-stack solution for your business.” - Ralph HaupterEpisode Highlights: [00:00] Quote of the Day by Ralph Haupter [00:54] Ralph's 20+ year Microsoft career journey from Europe to China to Global [02:19] Ralph's Experience in Microsoft Greater China [04:24] Giving space to local country leaders [06:16] Career advice: Get out of comfort zone [08:02] Microsoft's 400 million SME customer opportunity [11:00] AI accessibility for small business competitiveness [13:09] Satya's vision: Empower every organization globally [15:00] Microsoft as AI platform company strategy [17:24] Standardization enables partner ecosystem at scale [21:22] Security partners drive consultative innovation [25:15] Full stack portfolio simplifies SME technology [28:00] Training investment for partners and customers [32:00] Four critical partnership moments: Sales to support [35:00] Local partner presence matters by geography [40:36] Scale requires clarity, simplicity, and standards [42:36] Global Leadership Lessons: Learning from positive performance signal deviations [45:22] Customers should ask partners for expertise [47:34] What does Great Look Like for Microsoft SME & Channel Globally [48:00] ClosingProfile: Ralph Haupter, President and CRO, Small Medium Enterprises and Channel (SME&C), Microsoft LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ralphhaupter/Podcast Information: Bernard Leong hosts and produces the show.

They break down where AI is actually helping in sales, marketing, and customer success, and where it's falling apart.They talk about why “AI SDRs” don't live up to the pitch, why outbound emails generated by AI are useless without context, and why most teams don't have the data or workflows to make AI perform.

Dave Rubin of "The Rubin Report" talks to Yaron Brook about the decline of Western civilization; the rise of pro-Hamas protests and the moral collapse of universities; why he is pessimistic about the future of both the Republican and Democratic Parties; how woke ideology and failed leadership have eroded support for freedom, capitalism, and individual rights; why Western elites enable anti-Western movements; why Donald Trump's tariffs have harmed the average American and destroyed the progress made in free markets; why the inevitable failure of Zohran Mamdani's socialist policies in New York City won't be enough to convince young Americans that socialism doesn't work; the danger of radical Islam in America; why woke ideology has not gone away but is instead mutating into a different and more dangerous form; the influence of China and Russia on global instability; and Yaron's belief that innovation, freedom, and reason can still restore hope for America's future; his warning that growing chaos may lead to an authoritarian backlash that could destroy freedom in the name of restoring order; and much more.

What's on your mind? Let CX Passport know...Why do so many companies chase new customers when the math clearly proves that retention wins every time? Daniel Granja Baltazar joins from Rotterdam to unpack the “retention revelation”... how conversion rate optimization (CRO) is really about experience, not just clicks. Daniel's global lens from the Netherlands to Brazil gives a fresh take on blending sales, marketing, and CX into one connected journey.✈️ 5 First-Class InsightsConversion is the outcome, not the goal. Real CRO success starts with understanding the customer's experience.Retention beats acquisition. Companies still pour money into getting new customers, while neglecting why current ones leave.Listen before assuming. Numbers reveal what's happening... but only talking to customers reveals why.Bridge the silos. Sales, marketing, and customer service thrive when united by shared goals and active communication.Empathy drives everything. The best in sales, marketing, and CX are curious first, persuasive second.
A CMO Confidential Interview with Jim Lecinski, Clinical Professor of Marketing at the Kellogg School of Management, author, and former Google VP. Jim discusses why he believes marketers are often overly focused on using AI for productivity improvements versus business growth, the gaps between marketers and the C-Suite highlighted by recent Gartner research, and the difference between "big frontier models" and "shiny objects." Key topics include: why you should avoid "gray market AI", how to manage the 5 AI risks (privacy, accuracy, regulatory, personnel, and reputation), and the false precision that accompanies a focus on intermediate measures like Click Through Rate (CTR). Tune in to hear why he's not a fan of Cannes and how AI helped figure out a wedding invitation calling for "casual to semi-formal beach attire."What should CMOs actually do with AI right now—and how do you avoid chasing shiny objects? Mike Linton sits down with Jim Lecinski, Professor of Marketing at Northwestern's Kellogg School (and author of The AI Marketing Canvas and Winning the Zero Moment of Truth) to unpack the AI application layer: the good, the bad, and the ugly. Jim explains why CEOs-CFOs obsess over growth (not merely efficiency), how to reframe marketing dashboards around business outcomes, and his simple two-by-two for AI use cases (internal productivity vs. external value creation). We cover privacy, legal/regulatory, personnel, and reputational risks—and how to mitigate them—plus a pragmatic roadmap: center on a leading frontier model and layer vetted apps instead of stitching together fragile point solutions. Jim also shares candid takes on Cannes vs. Effies and ends with a challenge: personally build something with AI before year-end.You'll learn:* Growth over cost-cutting: aligning with CEO-CFO priorities and measuring ends, not means* The AI use-case 2×2: internal productivity vs. external, customer-facing value creation* Practical examples (e.g., apparel personalization) that lift CSAT, CLV, and revenue* The 5 risk buckets (privacy, accuracy, regulatory-IP, personnel, reputation) and guardrails* How to choose core models (GPT, Gemini, Claude) and avoid “tool soup”* Why awards that honor outcomes beat awards that celebrate activityGuest: Jim Lecinski — Professor of Marketing, Northwestern Kellogg; former VP Customer Solutions (Americas) at Google; author of The AI Marketing Canvas (2nd ed.) & Winning the Zero Moment of Truth.Host: Mike Linton — former CMO of Best Buy, eBay, Farmers Insurance; CRO of Ancestry.com.Sponsor: Better marketing is built on Quad.
