Kelly was instrumental in my sales training. Not only is she a joy to be around but she helped build the fundamentals that I relied upon for success at Intercom and now at Asana. She understands the tech space as a whole and helped me find me place in it :).
Pros:Amazing team
Cons:¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Flockjay's mission to support communities of color is worthwhile. They've also got awesome programming that enables folks who have relatively little background in tech to break into the industry in less tech focused roles.
Pros:Great support for folks interested in landing opportunities at tech with a positive mission in helping communities of color! love it!
Cons:Relatively new start up, continuing to gain traction for the future
As a women of color in tech, you often hear the rhetoric that there just aren't enough people of color in the candidate pool... "where do we find them?" FlockJay is solving an important and real problem of limited access to resources in underserved communities. They are demystifying the 'why don't we don't have more representation of other backgrounds in tech' by bringing resources/tools/money into communities.
I love that by having no up front cost, it enables folks for different socioeconomic backgrounds to apply. Sales, like anything else, is a learned skill and it's great to see that this company is not only making space for these voices, but actively supporting people's career growth. Who in turn, can also support their families and communities. It has a ripple effect.
A service like this has been long needed and I'm happy to see that incredible people like this have built a program that uplifts community. Kelly was an incredible mentor to me in my sales career and I'm excited to see the beauty of FlockJay come to fruition to provide a safe space for people to learn and grow their sales skills.
Pros:Serving underrepresented communities in tech. The amazing leadership will distill amazing values
Cons:None.
Kelly, Head of Sales at Flockjay, has years of experience growing and leading sales teams and employing a personal, human, and team-oriented approach. She's been a mentor and teacher to me, helping me grow my career from SDR to manager. At Envoy, she helped me build out our outbound sales efforts and trained my team, and we could not have launched that as successfully without her. Anyone who gets to learn from Kelly (and, I'm sure, from the other leaders at Flockjay) is incredibly lucky!
Pros:A wealth of experience and a sales leader passionate about diversity
Cons:None!

The team behind Flockjay is stacked with sales expertise. We have worked with Kelly to train our own sales reps and it was the most efficient and rewarding process. I am so excited to see the team at Flockjay scale such an important and valuable service. Can't imagine a more qualified and passionate team going after this problem.
Pros:Full of sales expertise, allows you to scale/grow faster, world class leaders
Cons:Haven't encountered any
I know first-hand the extreme dedication, integrity, and years of expertise the founder of Flockjay brings to the company. Shaan and his team are highly focused on bringing the best experience to new candidates as well as diversifying and enriching the tech sales job market.
Pros:Would highly recommend; Excellent management/talent; strong mission and commitment to hiring diverse tech sales executives; easy to use
Cons:None
