Paul Dudley

“I’m very lucky to have worked under Paul’s leadership at BrightEdge! Paul coached and mentored me for 3 years. Having just been promoted from SDR into Paul’s team; I was the youngest team member with no sales experience and little industry knowledge. Paul’s patience and attention to details ensured I got a kick start to my sales career. What I learned with him has been invaluable for my career! Thank you :) ”

“Paul is an amazing closer! He was the #1 revenue delivering rep every year as an individual contributor before moving into management and was a key contributor in developing pitch and process as we scaled our Sales program. He was trusted to develop key markets such as our New York and European regions. Paul ran our EMEA sales team for 5 years responsible for ramping and developing our AE’s and consistently delivered over quota. Paul was also a key contributor to our global sales methodology and strategy. Paul was one of our most beloved leaders as he has a remarkable ability to connect with our sales team and people loved working for him over the years. Paul is incredibly loyal, a great role model, brings a positive attitude every day and is always extremely committed to performing at exceptional levels .”

“Paul was a key contributor to the growth of BrightEdge. As as an individual contributor he was the number one revenue delivering rep every year (and all-time) and helped develop the pitch and process as the market expanded. He opened our NY office where he hired and on boarded our VP and early team. Paul then led sales in EMEA where he grew the team significantly and consistently delivered over goal performance. He ramped SDRs to become top-performing AEs and and worked on key customer relationships. Paul was a trusted partner as we built a market leading sales team and crushed the competition. ”

“Paul was on the journey of building BrightEdge from the early days of the company to late stage, and he's awesome! He's a great closer and closed many of our earliest enterprise customers, and he's awesome at figuring out sales with new technology. He knows how to build strong relationships, develop customer value, and get business done. He also opened new offices and locations, including leading our sales efforts in the UK. Beyond being amazing at sales, he's also an all around great guy - always willing to pitch in and help everyone on the team! ”

“Paul was a great manager and mentor. As i completed the SDR programme I shortly after joined Paul's team and began my journey as an AE. Paul has years of. experience in sales, he knows a variety of different methods to challenge you, get you thinking outside the box and ensures you learn what you need to. He is very thorough and methodical in his approach with everything he does so I learnt only the best way to do things and didn't start off with bad habits. He is very calm and makes you feel comfortable even if/when you're making mistakes and this calm demeanour is well received by customers. Paul is a well liked, fun and respected leader within the office and throughout the business. I hope I will get to work for Paul again in the future. ”

“I had the great pleasure of working with Paul for over four years. Paul was the type of person that every company wishes they had, an example to strive towards that was also the most approachable person on the team. Some of my best learnings in sales came from him discussing deals and understanding his approach and mindset. Even if he was completely busy, he was always open to talking through any question I had. The biggest lesson I learned from him was that as the top sales rep he was also the person who tried to learn and improve the most every day. I was lucky to count him among my mentors and friends and I hope we have the opportunity to work together again someday.”

“Every once in a while you get a chance to meet a really like-able person. Paul is one of these people. But not only is he friendly and affable but also he's very smart. When he first started at my company he made friends instantly with everyone. People quickly gave him more and more responsibility because he learns so quickly. I enjoy working with Paul very much.”
