About Qualified

Qualified is the #1 conversational sales and marketing platform for Salesforce, on a mission to disrupt how B2B companies meet with their buyers.
 
Headquartered in San Francisco, Qualified was founded in 2018 by serial entrepreneurs Kraig Swensrud (former CMO of Salesforce.com) and Sean Whiteley, a duo with a proven track record in enterprise software. Their first company, search marketing firm Kieden, was acquired by Salesforce in 2006, Their second company, online survey and customer experience platform GetFeedback, was acquired by Campaign Monitor in 2014, and later acquired by SurveyMonkey in 2019. Qualified is an early-stage, fast-paced, fast-growing startup in the SOMA area of San Francisco. The company has raised $68M in venture funding, and is backed by Norwest Venture Partners, Redpoint Ventures, and Salesforce Ventures.
 
Qualified has three main values that are carried throughout everything they do:
 
Customers First, Always: Prioritize the customer above everything else. Build a product that our customers love. Establish ourselves as their trusted advisor and do “whatever it takes” to make them successful. Only when our customers win do we win.
 
One Team: We’re all in this together with a shared goal: grow the business. Work as a team, win as a team. Collaborate, strategize, and brainstorm across departments to deliver A+ work.
 
Think Big, Move Fast:  We’re defining a new category. Fast-paced innovation is the name of the game. We look forward. We reimagine. We throw out new ideas. We test things. We move quickly. We challenge the norm. We don’t settle for the status quo.
 
On the heels of their Series B financing, Qualified is looking to grow the team so that they can do even more, even faster; they’re focused on delivering our customers more innovation, additional services, an expanded product portfolio, and even deeper ties into the Salesforce CRM platform. Qualified is looking for folks that are fired up about joining a fast-paced, fast-growing company that is doing big things.
