How to Use ChatGPT in B2B Sales w/ Jake Dunlap, CEO at Skaled


Listen Later

Hello and welcome back to the Collin Cadmus Podcast. Today I’m joined by Jake Dunlap.

Jake graduated Mirousi State University in 2003 and then went to ASU for his masters, before starting his career as an Account Manager for the Tampa Bay Devil Rays and Arizona Coyotes. After sports, Jake moved into tech at CareerBuilder.com where he worked his way into sales leadership before becoming the VP of Sales at Glassdoor, Chartbeat, and Nowait, until starting his most recent and current venture as the Founder and CEO of Skaled Consulting, where they help companies operationalize key aspects of their sales and marketing organization. Jake also co-founded a second venture in November 2024, called RevOptics; a GTM agency using data to solve top-of-funnel challenges.

We’ve known each other for a long time but it’s been a while since we last spoke, so I’m excited to catch up and get his thoughts on all that’s changed in B2B sales, and to specifically drill in on AI and ChatGPT, which has been a core focus for Jake and his team over recent years.
