How Accelevents Grew with Inbound Sales, Customer Focus & Events That Close Deals
About this episode
Alice Heiman interviews Jonathan Kazarian about how Accelevents grew through inbound sales and a focus on customer needs.
Events create demand. In this episode of Sales Talk for CEOs, Alice Heiman sits down with Jonathan Kazarian, Founder & CEO of Accelevents, the all‑in‑one event management platform that’s redefining how organizations run events from 20‑person dinners to 30,000‑attendee conferences. Jonathan didn’t start in events tech, he came from finance. But when he couldn’t find software powerful enough to run a 900‑person fundraiser for his cousin, he built his own. That event was a smash success and the demand for the tool he created sparked the beginning of Accelevents. Want to get better results from your events?
