About Raymond Hammond

As a CAM Manager at Avalara, my day-to-day is about more than just managing numbers and pipelines. I coach and develop a team of sales pros who act as trusted advisors, helping clients unlock the full value of their current solutions while identifying opportunities to expand and future-proof their compliance strategies. We\'re not just here to retain accounts—we\'re here to elevate them.Previously, I was recognized as a top-performing SDR Manager with a knack for building high-output teams from the ground up. Whether it’s launching reps into successful careers or executing strategic account plans that drive real ARR, I bring a people-first leadership style backed by results.When I’m not deep in dashboards or customer strategy sessions, you’ll find me geeking out on personal finance, diving into real estate markets, booking my next travel adventure, or chasing down the best food spots in town.My greatest strengths: Customer-Centric Leadership – I develop and lead high-performing sales teams that prioritize customer value and long-term relationships over transactional wins. Strategic Growth Execution – Experienced in account planning, ARR growth, cross-sell/upsell strategy, and sales forecasting across complex customer landscapes. Coaching & Talent Development – Proven track record of mentoring SDRs and AEs into top-tier performers with a focus on consistency, confidence, and career growth. SaaS & Tax Compliance Expertise – Deep understanding of Avalara’s solutions and the broader landscape of finance, compliance, and tax automation.
