What Our Clients Think
Joe’s work at Mentor Collective was critical to the company’s organizational success. Our consultation with him led to the creation of a new sales and success measurement process that prioritized customer impact over vanity metrics and built new abilities on our team, including designing randomized-control trials, organizing data, and conducting statistical analysis. The results of these studies, which demonstrated the efficacy of the company’s student retention interventions, enabled the company to secure $21M in series A funding. Furthermore, Dr. Joe and his work were cited by name in the subsequent TechCrunch article announcing the successful fundraising round. His work directly influenced the success of our sales organization, designing a system to regularly close six-figure deals.
