My contributions included working with executives and sales to build a full database of target accounts, a diverse portfolio of engagement-optimized campaigns, and a metrics-instrumented demand engine to drive scale.<\/li>\n<li style=\"padding-bottom: 24px;\"><strong>Implementing the product-led growth strategy at Appcelerator<\/strong>, enabling the business to go from 0 to 300,000 registered mobile developers, and 0 to $6 million in annual recurring revenue in less than 3 years. I built and scaled Appcelerator&#8217;s Marketo-based product-led growth engine.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Driving multiple new product introductions at Remedy Corporation<\/strong>, resulting in three years of triple-digit revenue growth, an IPO, and broad adoption of IT service management solutions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>As a hands-on demand generation leader, Bill Freedman is a skilled marketing strategist and an experienced practitioner in a broad range of marketing disciplines: product marketing, demand generation, marketing automation, data analysis, sales enablement, and persuasive writing.<\/p>\n<p>Bill Freedman currently works as an independent consultant to early stage enterprise software\/SaaS companies.
