Today's the day! We're excited to announce our $22M Series A! 🎉 Over the last year, we’ve seen 4x growth in annual recurring revenue and helped customers boost pipeline from calls by 2-3x within a month of adopting Nooks. And we believe we're on to something big: 𝗘𝗻𝗼𝗿𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘀 𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗶𝗺𝗽𝗮𝗰𝘁. Over the past year, we’ve helped thousands of reps hit quota, saved customers hundreds of thousands of hours on busywork, and powered hundreds of millions of dollars in pipeline... 𝗜𝗻𝘀𝗮𝗻𝗲 𝗰𝘂𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗺𝗲𝗿 𝗹𝗼𝘃𝗲. All the time, I hear reps’ stories saying they’d quit if they didn’t have Nooks; or crediting Nooks as a key factor in their promotion; or explaining how Nooks actually makes work fun... 𝗢𝘂𝗿 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱-𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀 𝘁𝗲𝗮𝗺. As we’ve grown the team from about 10 people last year to almost 50 today, I’ve had the pleasure to work with more talented teammates than I could’ve imagined... 𝗣𝗵𝗼𝗻𝗲-𝗳𝗶𝗿𝘀𝘁 𝗰𝘂𝗹𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝗻𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴. The Bridge Group reported that phone-centric orgs averaged 40% more qualified opportunities per rep compared to email centric orgs in 2023. Thank you to our users, partners and friends. We look forward to building the future of sales development with you! Read the full memo from our Founder & CEO, Dan L.: 🔗 https://lnkd.in/gm6CB4Cx

Please welcome our newest SDR - DaVonte Scafe! 🙌 We were lucky enough to get to meet him in time for #NooksRetreat2024 and he's already hitting the phones and booking meetings 😎 Here's a bit about our newest team mate: - Born in Philadelphia, PA and I currently lives in Aiken, SC 🏠 - Loves to hit the road on his bike 🚲 He clocks in over 250 miles a week with his longest rides being on #CenturySaturdays - a 100 mile ride every Saturday 👀 𝗙𝘂𝗻 𝗙𝗮𝗰𝘁: He lived in Okinawa, Japan from age 12 to 13 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗲𝘅𝗰𝗶𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝗵𝗶𝗺 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗺𝗼𝘀𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗷𝗼𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗡𝗼𝗼𝗸𝘀: "What I love most about Nooks is the virtual sales floor—it’s been a total game changer for me! It brings my colleagues and me together in a remote environment, creating a sense of camaraderie that’s hard to find when working from home." "The best part is how it accelerates my ramping period. I can easily listen to my peers' talk tracks, get real-time feedback from my SDR manager and team, bounce ideas off my team, and engage in meaningful, spontaneous conversations." 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗯𝗲𝘀𝘁 𝗽𝗶𝗲𝗰𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝗮𝗱𝘃𝗶𝗰𝗲 𝗵𝗲'𝘀 𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗿𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗱: "The best piece of sales advice I ever received is to "fail fast and fail forward." It’s especially important when you’re the new guy—it's perfectly okay to break things, stumble over your talk track, or not know every feature of the product you’re selling." "But if you don’t fail fast, you miss out on crucial learning and growth opportunities. Embracing these challenges head-on helps you improve quickly and ultimately succeed." Welcome to the team! ☎️

𝐍𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐬 𝟐𝟎𝐊 𝐂𝐥𝐮𝐛 - 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐜𝐤! Some people might think that older applicants like me could be a bit “outdated,” but here’s the thing: when you have a reason to work hard (my biggest motivation in the picture 💖), you push through every challenge. Sure, I might not be the most tech-savvy, but I make up for it with determination, dedication, and a lot of heart. Being a working mom isn’t always easy, but knowing I’m doing it all for my daughter, she’s the reason I stay motivated, the reason behind every dial, the reason for every goal, and the reason I’m so present on the Nooks page. Huge thank you XDRhub for creating such an incredible work environment and for helping me be a better person and professional with Sandler Training and all the support I can’t even name. I’ve learned so much from my colleagues, and I never feel alone even though we work remote. Here’s to all the working moms out there and to anyone who thinks it’s too late to start something new—you’ve got this! 💪

It’s been a wild first couple of weeks at Nooks, ended my first week on the phones with 8 meetings booked 🚀 Coming from a background in hospitality sales, diving into a new industry and using a parallel dialler for the first time I had allot to learn. What helped me ramp up so quickly was spending all day on the virtual sales floor, listening to the SDR crew make calls, and practicing talk tracks and my tone with our AI training bot. Ramping while remote is hard, but a virtual sales floor that makes you feel like you're in an office makes it a little less challenging. P.S. Melanie Smith did an outstanding job setting me up for success. I couldn’t have asked for a better sales leader.

Back in 2019 I had just moved home from working my dream job at Walt Disney World when I got my first BDR job... It was first time ever cold calling it was in a full office infront of 100 colleagues. I had to google the company’s HQ number, manually type in the phone number on my landline phone, come up with creative ways to get past a gatekeeper and figure out how to be confident and not stumble my pitch 😅😅 Luckily I had two great managers to coach me through it, one being Sara Carroll, who was probably the best cold caller I have seen to date. This girl booked everyone who answered the phone. Having a leader like her to teach me the basics of the BDR role and learning how to cold call from the best, helped me get to where I am today. 💜 Throughout the years I have made hundreds of thousands of cold calls, getting more confident year over year, but always returning to the basics instilled by my first manager. Last quarter, I got the chance to meet with Sara and her team. It was my turn to teach them how to be more efficient with cold calling, increase connection rates and conversion rates, and have fun doing it, by using our virtual sales floor with Nooks. 🤗🤗 A FULL CIRCLE MOMENT! 🤗 🤗 Now a days, we can make cold calls from virtually anywhere, and our team can listen in live to offer tips and advice! I absolutely hated call coaching back then, now I schedule it once a week with my manager! Pic below is me and my purple Nooks phone, making cold calls from Mission Beach in San Diego, California at our last company off site. The purpose of the challenge is to share how you overcame call reluctance so we can inspire others in the community to do the same 🙌 All you have to do is: 1. Reach out to Giano Fiore 🟣 and let him know you’re excited to participate. 2. We’ll send you a purple phone prop and a Nooks T-shirt. 3. Take a fun picture or video of yourself with your phone. 4. Post it and share your story of your first time cold calling and how you overcame call reluctance. #DareToDialChallenge
