Prior to Calendly, she was Head of Revenue Marketing at Asana, where she spearheaded demand generation, marketing operations, and product and sales-led growth business integrations for the Americas, EMEA, Japan and APAC businesses. She also served as CMO of three high-growth, venture-backed startups, building their global enterprise marketing engines during rapid growth periods, including Honor, one of the largest privately-owned home care companies in the U.S., and Piazza, an online college recruiting platform where she also led sales to build it into a multi-million dollar revenue-generating company in one year. Previously, she co-founded Fraiche Yogurt, a successful chain of yogurt stores in the Bay Area.
“Jessica’s extensive background in product and sales-led growth motions moving upmarket, as well as building B2B marketing programs and teams in support of our customers, is exactly what we need to achieve our next stage of growth,” said Tope Awotona, Calendly’s founder and CEO. “Her expertise will help us define a new category in technology and get Calendly into the hands of every departmental team within the enterprise.”
Jessica’s addition follows a momentous year for Calendly. In 2022, Calendly accelerated its ambition to deliver deeper solutions for enterprise teams and organizations with the acquisition of Prelude and the release of new features and integrations like Calendly Routing Forms, Calendly Analytics, and Calendly LinkedIn browser extensions. Calendly’s Teams and Enterprise Plan customers continued to be its fastest growing cohort: the company bolstered its customer roster with Twilio, Staffmark Group, and Cintas, and customers spending greater than $100 thousand per year increased 100% year-over-year.
