Hello Potential Future Employer,
With over 10 years of experience driving business growth and operational efficiency, I am a results-oriented sales leader who consistently surpasses expectations. My career has been marked by strategic leadership, innovative problem-solving, and deep expertise in data-driven decision-making across various competitive fields, including SaaS, FinTech, Legal Services, and Commercial Real Estate.
Key Achievements:
Record-Breaking Launches at WeWork: As a Consumer Account Manager at WeWork, I led the sales efforts for two new buildings in Phoenix, achieving a 98% occupancy rate within the first six months—setting a new regional record. My targeted marketing strategies resulted in a 25% increase in customer sign-ups, contributing to WeWork’s rapid expansion in the area.
Strategic Growth at Flare: As sales Manager at Flare, I spearheaded sales initiatives that grew the business segment by 30% in just seven months. Through detailed market analysis and process optimization, I consistently exceeded revenue targets by over 10% and increased sales conversion rates by 50%, positioning Flare as a market leader in its segment.
Innovative Digital Strategy at The Daily Tater: As the Founder of The Daily Tater, a sports media business, I grew the subscriber base from zero to over 2,000 in four months.

This engagement drove brand loyalty and positioned The Daily Tater as a leading voice in sports media.
Why I Am the Right Choice for Your Team:
Proactive Problem-Solver with a Bias for Action
I am driven by a bias for action, which ensures that challenges are swiftly overcome and projects stay on track. My "action over perfection" mindset consistently delivers continuous improvement and practical solutions. For example, at Flare, I introduced a streamlined sales process that reduced average deal closure time by 20%, enabling the team to exceed quarterly revenue goals by 15%.
Autodidact Committed to Continuous Learning
My commitment to continuous learning and development is a cornerstone of my career success. I rapidly upskill using resources like YouTube, ChatGPT, and Google, which allows me to stay ahead of industry trends and technologies. At Flare, I led the rollout of a new CRM system (Hubspot), resulting in a 25% increase in team productivity and an improvement in data accuracy, which directly contributed to better decision-making and faster sales cycles.
Innovative and Strategic Thinker
I have a proven track record of identifying growth opportunities and optimizing processes to deliver measurable results. In addition to driving sales at WeWork, I also played a key role in developing and launching a customer retention strategy that reduced churn by 18% within the first year. My ability to think strategically and implement innovative solutions has consistently driven long-term success for the organizations I’ve been part of.
Leadership that Inspires and Delivers
My leadership style is both collaborative and results-driven, ensuring that teams are motivated and equipped to achieve their full potential. At Yelp, my role in the Leadership Development Program, where I mentored new executives, helped reduce onboarding time by 30%, and improved new hire performance by 20% within their first three months. At Flare, I received the highest rating among managers in an HR-conducted survey, reflecting my commitment to creating a positive and empowering work environment. Additionally, my leadership at Flare contributed to a 100% team retention rate, a testament to the supportive and growth-oriented culture I fostered.

Jesse is truly one of the greatest leaders I’ve had the pleasure of working with. I was lucky enough to have him as my manager in my first tech sales job and he played a huge role in my success and the successes of many others. He not only provides constant precision analysis and coaching but is also an expert when it comes to motivation and getting the best out of his people. He played a major role in my biggest successes by always propelling me to new heights with his support, even when I doubted myself. And I work with many others who experienced the same substantial growth in their career because of his mentorship. He is also an expert when it comes to increasing the growth and efficiency of any sales organization as he implemented many major policies in our time working together that helped unlock the organization’s potential and improve our sales processes. There are few leaders I’ve met in my life who can have such a profound positive impact on the individuals who work for them as well as the business they’re a part of and Jesse is certainly one of them. Which is why I happily endorse him and the results he generates to any organization looking for a phenomenal sales leader. Please don’t hesitate to DM me if you have any questions!
Jesse was hired on with Wework as part of a core 10 to launch Wework in a new market. He has not only been an integral part in his own role but to that of his teammates' successes as well. As one of the core 10 who has worked alongside him these past 2 years I can attest to his long list of contributions during his time at Wework. Jesse wore many hats during the market launch phase that may not be captured when looking at his current role title but shouldn't be overlooked. He planned broker events, assisted broker tours, led hard hat tours & did cold-calling/emailing that led to sales, planned marketing events, all the while assisting his teammates in the operations piece of opening a brand new physical building. Arizona's first Wework opened with the highest occupancy that a building has ever opened with in our territory. I should mention that this record was only broken by the second building he opened in the market. As an Account Manager, customer satisfaction is one of his biggest strengths. All of our members loved him and at times would only wait to speak with Jesse, preferring him over all other teammates. His sales consistently grew due to his personable nature he brought to work everyday. I would always recommend Jesse to anyone looking for a go-getter who meets targets and always strives for more.
