Tell us about your team!
How big is it?
We have a team of 13 CSMs
Where are your teammates located?
Our HQ is based in San Diego, Ca, but we are based remotely all over the U.S.
What does your team do? What are you responsible for?
Our team is new and quite small as our Partnerships team is in charge of onboarding our Enterprise clients and I am currently a team of 1. I am building out the foundations and processes for the Partnerships team as it will grow. I am responsible for ensuring the Enterprise Pros are having a successful GoSite experience during their trial period to ensure the client wants to sign a renewal.
What are the components of a strong remote culture?
The strong components starts at the top, where company leadership ensures employees are being supported both in their personal and professional lives.
Strong remote cultures are built on strong connections. Strong connections are built with Hailey.
How do you make sure your team is happy and engaged in their work?
Our team is very energetic in Slack which helps us feel very connected to one another, as well as schedules time for us to debrief and just share a laugh! We have daily scheduled morning meetings where we talk about updates, roadblocks and successes.
