Eric Jones

Senior Director, Enterprise Sales
I've exceeded annual quota 13 of my 17 years in sales. I was the number one performer while working at Salesforce, experiencing 4 startups that were acquired by Cisco, Experian, McDonald's, and AOL. I've hired and fired and exceeded annual quotas up to $2.5M. I also know all sides of the business having created a successful one spanning 3 years. I have experience effectively displacing legacy systems and maintaining Forrester quadrant leader status. This gives me pride and assists in interview processes but most important are authenticity, humility, and respect. No one likes a big ego selling them a business sales solution for 6-9 months. My passion is to help address your business needs. I thrive on showing businesses how they can maximize their results and achieve quantum leaps, easier and faster than ever before. This is what I bring to the table.

Founder & CEO

May 2017 - Present
The pandemic accelerated the digital transformation for many organizations ranging from SMB to individuals to the unemployed. Video use continues to evolve and remains the most effective medium for businesses and brands to connect with stakeholders – whether customers, partners, vendors, or employees. Before the pandemic Cisco forecasted 80% of overall internet traffic would be from video. Since the pandemic started this percentage is likely closer to 85-90%. So what to do as a first step? First make a decision on how you envision your company or department's video brand to be. Do you want to use the online plug and play stock options banking on all your reps to deliver quality videos with consistent and articulate messaging? Why use 1:1 video and training over the stock and plug and play options in the market? Superior open (just over 80%), click thru(50%), response rates (~15%) vs. the competition. We also advise on starting kits for both video and podcasting and sell them on the website. For more visit https://salesisevolving.com

Activities and societies
I produced my own TV show called 'Tom Foolery' with a cast of 10 friends I recruited. We released an episode a week and distributed to the three closest public access channel networks in and around Davis. I was also assistant to my long friend and housemate who was on the student body as President.
Description
Although I didn't find the curriculum during school overwhelming I found it to be a distraction. I came to believe the most important reason for me being enrolled at UC Davis was the conversations I was having with some of the brightest students in the world and they shaped and affected the path and vision of my future primarily while studies were secondary.
