Selling in the tech space in 2023 was an incredibly difficult job. Some reports show only 28% of sellers actually hit quota.
Yet, cohosts Ashley and Katrine had the opportunity to sit down with Christie Young, an Account Executive (AE) who not only hit her ramping new hire quota - she went on to hit a fully ramped sellers quota to qualify for President’s Club.
At the time of this recording, Christie was a Senior Enterprise Account Executive at Collibra, a data intelligence cloud. She began her tech sales career almost four years ago as a Business Development Representative (BDR) and specializes in data & analytics SaaS. Last year she was 154% to quota and made President’s Club, an annual contest that is awarded to an elite group of sales reps for attaining their quota.
Tune into today's episode to listen to Christie to talk about how she found success in a tough year, how she navigates the tech space as a woman, and how she’s leaned on mentors to guide her through tough times.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
