Currently: Startup Growth Advisor at Vercel

Cam Robinson

I help startups get the most out of Vercel. Before that I was a professional skier.

I grew up outside Boston and competed as a freestyle skier through 2017. I live in Pittsburgh now.

Before this role I built Vercel's Startups SDR team across AMER, APAC and EMEA. I still coach reps part-time.

Career

Skiing and sales

Freestyle is judged, not timed. You break a trick down, work the piece that isn't landing, and get scored again the next weekend.

Outbound runs on that same repetition. Calls, sequences, discovery questions. You find what isn't working and drill it.

That's a lot of why I moved into leading and coaching. Building the Startups SDR team meant doing it for other people's reps instead of my own.
