Introducing Scott Sambucci
This week we're proud to announce that we're joined by Scott Sambucci as the new director of business development for Altos Research.
Scott is a rare breed: an economist and an entrepreneur.That means he's an expert in the technical aspect of our market analytics work and an expert in helping people (like our clients) build their businesses.
For fun, Scott's an adjunct professor of economics at the University of San Francisco and Cal State East Bay (can you just imagine the Altos Research team happy hour? paaartay!).Plus he's off-the-charts smart and has graduate degrees from Duke University and USF.He's a technology veteran with a diverse background in the Silicon Valley software world and international economics consulting.He also speaks Russian fluently, but I haven't yet figured out how to leverage that talent to our advantage.In short, he fits right in with the Altos team and we're super happy to have him on board.
Why the squishy title, "director of business development"?Everyone at our firm contributes to multiple parts of the business.Scott's primary role is leading our sales efforts.He's already interacting every day with our subscribers, site visitors, and prospects.Of course, since so much of our efforts are focused on making our realtor clients look like rock stars, Scott's role also necessarily spreads into customer service.Finally, Scott's technical background fits our product strategy needs nicely.So "director of business development" seems to be an appropriate catch-all.
So friends, please extend a warm welcome to Scott.I'm hoping to get him blogging from time to time in this space.In the meantime, he can be reached at scott [at] altosresearch [dot] com.
Scott will be prowling the halls of the Inman Real Estate Connect conference in San Francisco this week, stop by and say Hi if you're there.
