“The best way to predict the future is to create it.”
Peter F Drucker
Today is a big day at Strive HQ as, after 18 months of research, planning and bureaucracy, we are able to announce the launch of our first international office, in Tampa, Florida!
This will be our second office, and the first in the USA, giving us the perfect setting for our ambitious growth plans over the next two years.
The team in Tampa will provide a dedicated service to the SaaS Sales market, building Go-To-Market teams for some of the most disruptive, venture capital backed, software companies across the USA.
The first of our ‘Founding Fathers’ to make the move is Co-Founder and Director of Strive, Harrison Scott.
As well as being one of our Co-Founders, Harrison has over 15 years' experience in sales and recruitment, 11 of which have been spent running his own companies from start-up stage through to multi-million turnover.
Using this vast outbound sales experience, Harrison’s main focus is to grow the Strive client base in his Global Business Development role, with an initial focus on the Cyber, DevOps and Data US markets.
As our ‘first-person-on-the-ground’ in the new US office, Harrison made the move across the pond in early February and has spent the last few weeks setting up the ‘Strive ship’ for when the other team members join him – more on them to follow!
Anyone who knows Harrison, knows his passion for setting and smashing unrealistic goals, pushing boundaries, and helping others reach their full potential, so we can’t think of a better person to be a key driving force on this growth path.
As a side note, we’re not too sure where this “aspiring high altitude climber” is going to find as many summits to scale as he has across the UK and Europe but knowing Harrison, he’ll find a way!
We would also like to give massive kudos at this point, to our Operations Manager, McKenzie Powell – this was a massively complex research project, followed by an intense period of putting all that research into practice and setting up our new US infrastructure.
McKenzie has kindly compiled all her ‘top tips’ for researching where to set up a US office, into a handy guide, so please reach out if you would like a copy of this on hello@scalewithstrive.com.
