Global Inside Sales Leader Ralph Barsi Joins Loopio As An Advisor

Barsi has over 25 years of experience building world-class sales and sales development organizations. Before Tray.io, Barsi served as Senior Director of Global Sales Development at ServiceNow, and VP of Field Operations at Achievers through its acquisition by Blackhawk Network. He has held various sales and leadership roles throughout his career, mostly in technology, and has helped to scale several high-performing SaaS organizations.

“We’re thrilled to have Ralph as an advisor. He is one of the best and most recognized inside sales leaders in the SaaS community,” says Zak Hemraj, CEO and Co-Founder of Loopio. “His wealth of experience building and leading large sales organizations—especially on a global scale—will be integral for helping Loopio grow.”

Barsi plans to strategically advise on a variety of initiatives, including revenue generation, go-to-market planning, sales training, and more.

“I’m inspired by the passion of Loopio’s people, especially founders Zak, Matt [York, CTO], and Jafar [Owainati, CRO],” says Barsi. “Every employee I’ve met demonstrates the highest standards of integrity, respect, class, execution, and service. They also have a relentless focus on driving value for their customers, partners, and fellow employees. I love working with people and teams who embody those values.”

Barsi is also eager to support Loopio’s mission of reinventing how companies respond to RFPs, do more meaningful work, and win more business. “Loopio is solving real problems for its customers by streamlining the RFP process and giving businesses huge productivity gains. That’s powerful, and it’s super exciting for me to be able to help influence it.”

Barsi spends much of his time in service to others. He is a mentor for GrowthX Academy and the Women in Sales Awards. He’s also served on the board of the Gable Heart Beats Foundation, a non-profit that provides communities with affordable heart screenings and places defibrillators at sporting grounds.
