Understanding The Digital & Modern Landscape of Selling Drives Growth For Global Executives - This CEO Shares His Journey

    AUSTIN, TX, August 10, 2021 /24-7PressRelease/ -- With clients such as LinkedIn and Microsoft on board, Jake Dunlap, CEO of Skaled Consulting, customizes high-yielding sales processes for some of the world's most recognizable companies, seamlessly integrating a vast array of experience, education, and proven techniques into a sustainable ecosystem of sales that produces real results. Having a clear understanding of the psychology of buying and selling is the recipe for highly successful formulas that consistently outperform industry standards. Top executives worldwide rely on Jake Dunlap to create and lead their brands' sales and marketing campaigns and teams.

Who is Jake Dunlap?

Starting from humble, Midwestern beginnings, sales was not a career path definitively imagined by Jake. Telemarketing and waiting tables paid for college tuition while a brief but lucrative stint in sales management for the Arizona Coyotes and Tampa Bay Devil Rays indicated a natural aptitude Jake had for sales. However, he didn't truly learn the techniques and process of selling until his first corporate experience at a leading company.

Despite previous success in sports and other ventures, this new role had its challenges, but would become the foundational starting blocks of a new career and an introduction into the science of selling.

Frustrated that previous methodologies were not yielding desired results, Jake worked to learn the company's sales techniques, starting with the sales scripts used to train thousands of employees. The change proved to be successful, yielding over $60,000 in sales the very next month. From here, Jake continued to learn the art and science of a sale, propelling him into executive roles.

Before building Skaled, Jake held the roles of VP of Sales at Glassdoor (acquired for $1.2 billion by RecruitHoldings), Nowait (acquired by Yelp), and Head of Sales + Customer Relations at ChartBeat. In 2013, Jake launched Skaled Consulting using transformative, modern techniques that focus on customer behavior and motivations to drive sustainable growth. Transforming over 750 sales organizations, including several Fortune 500 companies, the Skaled's formula clearly demonstrated a new era of selling that worked.

What's Next?

In 2018, Jake made the decision to invest in brand and LinkedIn. Consistently creating relevant, engaging, and veritable content spearheaded progress and led to many opportunities, including keynote speaker/panelist presentations at Salesloft's Rainmaker Conference, Innovacorp Annual Sales/Marketing Conference, and Saleshacker. Jake has built up an impressive LinkedIn audience (55k+) via content creation and engagement and has increased the visibility for Skaled using this technique.

The latest project is The Jake Dunlap Show, a podcast featuring inspirational and prominent thought leaders, CEOs, and inspirational figures from around the globe. "My goal is to help some of the world's most successful leaders go deep on what made them determined, motivated, and humbled to achieve greatness," said Jake. "I noticed a gap in the ecosystem of podcasts, so I wanted to focus on the unique aspects of what made people successful - it could be an experience from their youth, first job, or college that created the pathway for who and what they are today."

To date, The Jake Dunlap Show has interviewed the following guests: Dan Harris of Good Morning America; Manny Medina-raised $200 million for his company, Outreach; Mark Roberge-Harvard Professor and Venture Capitalist; Henry Schuck, CEO of Zoominfo; Erik Huberman, CEO of Hawke Media; and Chris Walker, CEO of RefineLabs.

Kara Goldin, CEO of Hint Water, will be making an appearance this August 2021!
