[lnorden]

Hello!

My name is Lindsey, I am the CRM & Sales Administrator for our Company, Dealer eProcess (although, working on a title Change to "RevOps" lol). We are total website solution providers for Automobile/RV/Powersports dealerships.

I love Data Management because I understand numbers and I love to learn, and with this role there is always something new to figure out or solve. I like analyzing and finding better ways to improve things and I enjoy collaboration amongst other teams to achieve common goals. 

I do not have a favorite Blog or Podcast to recommend, but I do recommend viewing any HubSpot trainings put on by Kyle Jepsen.

Regarding new Content in the works: Holy cow what am I NOT working on right now? LOL Currently in the works to roll out - Help Desk for Support Team, Sales Space for Sales Team, Prospecting Agent, Customer Agent, Social Agent (once we get into the Beta), Integrations with our other systems, using "Leads", Data Enrichment, so many things.

I am hoping to find a good way to not only handle the workload that comes with RevOps, but to figure out how to get the company on board with unified processes. We have several "silos" (other departments) that want to be their own island, but also want full acccess to our CRM and the information within it, without having to use it according to our standards, so I'm really hoping this course will help me find better solutions to unify all the teams and get everyone aligned within our CRM.
