Meet the Ripplers: Brooke, a true sales force
In this article
Name: Brooke Golombeck
Role: Enterprise Account Executive
Location: San Francisco
Rippler since: 2019
Role + Responsibilities
As an Enterprise Account Executive, I sell Rippling to our largest, most strategic customers. From the first call to closing the deal, I own each step of the sales process. My role requires knowing the product inside and out, navigating the customer journey, and prescribing the best path forward based on the client’s needs.
This Rippler’s journey
When I started at Rippling in November 2019, I couldn’t have imagined the magnitude of change ahead. New to San Francisco, I was ready to build my life in the city and a career at Rippling.
Around 150 employees at the time, our small sales team met face-to-face in the office each day. Fast-forward to March, and I was learning a new product and navigating the organization alone in my studio apartment. Being a hands-on person, going fully remote had its challenges. But with the guidance of experienced leaders, I gained a new appreciation for our product and the customers we serve.
Among the many lessons I’ve learned at Rippling—roll with the punches. Change is par for the course whether you’re creating new processes or faced with a global pandemic.
I’ll be honest, when I first pitched it, I was very upfront with the customer about not having all the details. They were very appreciative and accepted that this was something new. They saw the vision and eventually signed up for what's now called Unity.
