Sales team is closer to the customer's problems.
How do we bring the marketing and product teams closer to customer problems, so that they feel the voice of the customer?
Voice of the customer is really valuable. It's very hard to get access to it, and even if you get access to it, it's a pain to gain insights from it, and then scale it up.
This is the pain point which led Shruti Kapoor and her co-founders Muralidharan Venkatasubramanian - Head of Product and Srikar Yekollu - to start Wingman, a conversation intelligence SaaS.
Wingman acts as the single source of truth for all types of interactions between sales teams and buyers including emails and calls.
It analyzes them and it gives the ability to deep dive into these conversations and provide the larger analytics and intelligence, to improve revenue.
Their 1st million revenues came in around 2.5 years, and 2nd million in the next 6 months. They’ve also been part of Ycombinator and SaaSBOOMi GrowthX.
Wingman recently got acquired by Clari.
