Numbers-first letter that addresses the classic manager question: can you hire, ramp and forecast?

Sofia Almeida · Application for Sales Manager at Cloudharbor

Dear Mr Duarte,

Your announcement of Cloudharbor's expansion into Iberia is why I am writing. I have built and led an enterprise sales team in exactly that region: eight account executives who closed 118% of a €6.2M quota last year, with an average deal of €74k and a 92-day cycle.

Two things I would bring on day one. First, a repeatable ramp: I cut new-hire time-to-quota from six months to four through structured onboarding and weekly deal reviews. Second, a forecast you can plan on: after introducing MEDDIC qualification our accuracy improved from ±22% to ±8%. Before managing, I closed €1.9M in new ARR in a single year and built a reseller channel from zero to eleven partners.

I would welcome the chance to discuss how I could help Cloudharbor open Spain and Portugal. Thank you for your consideration.

Kind regards, Sofia Almeida
