About Plooto
82% of small businesses fail due to poor management of cash flow. Our vision is to enable the advancement of Small and Medium-sized Businesses (SMBs) by developing the tools & insights they need to maximize their cash flow. Over 9,000 businesses and their finance teams trust Plooto to automate their financial processes so they can focus on reaching their true potential.
About the Role
As a Product Adoption Specialist, you will focus on the onboarding journey of new customers (specifically mid-size accounting and bookkeeping firms with their own books of SMBs). You will be a consultant and partner for them and ensure they are set up for success as customers of Plooto. Your goal will be to drive new leads at events, convert those leads and those from other channels, and ensure they grow their business with Plooto over time. You will have your own book of business that you will be given ownership over and the freedom to maximize its growth over time. You will be a founding member of Plooto’s Product Adoption team and will play a key role in building new processes, influencing the team’s quarterly plan, and driving insights about the onboarding experience for the rest of the business.
The role focuses on engaging with new customers, understanding their onboarding journey, and making the existing experience better. This is a cross-functional role where you will collaborate with Marketing, Customer Experience, Product, Engineering, and Compliance. We are a high-performing organization and encourage a Championship Mindset. We leave our egos at the door and understand a diversity of perspectives is the best way to solve problems and deliver value. We win as a team!

What You'll Do

  • Engage with new accounting & bookkeeping firms proactively to ensure they are onboarded successfully at Plooto. Ensure the conversion of leads assigned to you remains high and that they are getting the maximum value out of the Plooto product.
  • Provide support to new or prospective SMB customers that reach out to Plooto, ensuring high customer satisfaction ratings.
  • Organize and attend events on behalf of Plooto to maximize leads captured and promote our brand.
  • Find opportunities for customers to grow and onboard faster by building assets, resources, and other external content (such as training & demo videos and help center articles).
  • Develop and maintain deep expertise in Plooto’s onboarding experience and back-end processes.
  • Build new internal processes to increase the velocity of customer conversion.
  • Collect user insights from engaging with customers to share across the business (i.e., with Product, Engineering, and Marketing).
  • Be the customer voice in Product and Marketing decisions when it comes to the onboarding journey.

Your Background

  • University/College degree in business, finance/accounting, economics, or any related discipline.
  • New grad with strong co-op experience or recent grad with one year of work experience in a business development, onboarding, implementation, or customer success/experience role.
