Velocify and AA-ISP Join the Fight Against Hunger: Register for ELEVATE Virtual Sales Kickoff and $1 Will Go to Feeding America


LOS ANGELES, Nov. 20, 2015 /PRNewswire/ -- Velocify, the leading sales acceleration platform, and the American Association of Inside Sales Professionals (AA-ISP), today announced that $1 will be donated to hunger relief for every person that registers for its inaugural virtual sales kickoff, ELEVATE, during the week of Thanksgiving, starting Monday, November 23, and ending Sunday, November 29. The FREE virtual event, being held on December 3, features more than 30 expert-led sessions, including keynotes from global sales leaders at two of the largest software companies in the world, along with major sales influencers.

Help fight hunger this Thanksgiving by registering for the free ELEVATE virtual sales kickoff

Combining corporate social responsibility with sales inspiration for the coming year, Velocify and AA-ISP have pledged to match every new registration for the event with a donation to Feeding America, a hunger relief charity that provides meals and groceries to children and families in need. Each dollar that goes to Feeding America translates into 11 meals, allowing the sales community to make a meaningful impact this holiday season.

"ELEVATE is designed to inspire sales professionals to be at their best, and we believe this includes helping those in need as well as working to drive growing businesses and economies," said Velocify President and CEO Nick Hedges. "We want to show our support for the profession by offering tips, techniques and strategies from the greatest minds in sales, and give back to the community by sponsoring important social initiatives."

"The AA-ISP is thrilled to have Velocify as a close partner in our effort to take the inside sales profession to the next level," said AA-ISP Chairman Bob Perkins. "Producing ELEVATE together was one small way that we can join forces to help advance anyone involved in virtual sales."

ELEVATE will feature sales influencers like Jill Konrath, Koka Sexton, Jill Rowley, Mark Hunter, Aaron Ross, Trish Bertuzzi, Anneke Seley and many more, along with global sales leaders and sales technology experts. The event is being conducted in conjunction with AA-ISP's "International Sales Day Out," where many of AA-ISP's 70 chapters will host local viewing parties to extend the virtual ELEVATE experience.

ELEVATE and "International Sales Day Out" are open to sales reps, sales leaders, marketers and anyone who works in a role that supports a sales or marketing function.
