About Andrew Russo

At Salesforce, we are focused on supporting higher education institutions as they tackle headwinds from competitive threats and a significant enrollment cliff. By leveraging AI + CRM + Data, institutions can differentiate themselves, provide exceptional experiences for prospective and current students. As constituents become alumni and donors, Salesforce helps to deliver messaging and communication that resonates with these constituents. These same institutions can achieve operational excellence by leveraging Gen AI and now Agents - allowing staff and employees to focus on tasks that drive value. Specializing in sales leadership and enterprise software sales, my recent role as Vice President of Business Development at CoachMePlus culminated in securing the largest commercial deal within the SLED market. My strategic approach combines meticulous relationship building with an in-depth understanding of state and local government, professional and collegiate athletics sectors.
