Today CJ is joined by Cameron Hyzer, the CFO of ZoomInfo, one of the world's most successful publicly traded data businesses. Cameron discusses the nuances of running a data-driven subscription business, focusing on forecasting, revenue generation through subscriptions and usage-based models, and the importance of customer segmentation. Cameron is a master capital allocator and this conversation touches on why you should focus on quality versus reducing costs as a CFO, share repurchase programs 101, and frameworks for making resource allocation bets.
