NEW YORK (PRWEB) November 19, 2019 -- Chili Piper, the sales tech pioneer, announced today the appointment of Jim Ensell to Chief Marketing Officer (CMO). With more than 20+ years of experience driving category-building marketing strategies in the cloud, SaaS, enterprise and open source spaces, Ensell will lead Chili Piper’s transformation of the B2B Sales industry. This includes driving the adoption of first-of-kind solutions to dramatically improve Sales productivity around scheduling, calendaring and team inbox collaboration.

As a seasoned chief marketing officer, Ensell will lead all global marketing functions at the company.

His career also includes executive leadership roles at Electric Cloud, CollabNet, Coho Data, Virage Logic, eSilicon, and Cadence Design Systems.
“Chili Piper has a strong foundation in place with the industry’s most advanced meeting scheduling solutions which enable qualified leads to instantly book meetings and start phone calls when assigned sales reps are available,” said Ensell. “This is a great time to come on board as Chili Piper’s scheduling solution is gaining rapid adoption and we reinvent calendar and inbox applications for modern sales teams to increase conversion and accelerate revenue growth.”
