MindTickle, a sales enablement and sales readiness platform, announced it has raised $40 million in Series C funding led by Norwest Venture Partners. Accel Partners, Canaan, NewView Capital and Qualcomm Ventures LLC also participated in the round, which brings MindTickle’s total funds up to more than $81 million.
As part of the agreement, Scott Beechuk, Partner at Norwest Venture Partners and former SVP of Product Management at Salesforce Service Cloud, will join MindTickle’s Board of Directors. The news comes shortly after the company appointed Jeff Santelices as its Chief Revenue Officer.
“Sales and service organizations are facing a perfect storm on many fronts and company representatives that are not equipped to handle complex buyer needs and competitive challenges are being left behind,” said Krishna Depura, Co-Founder and CEO of MindTickle, in a statement. “MindTickle is empowering companies to grow revenue and build their brand value by transforming customer-facing teams and preparing them to be on message and on task every time they engage with a prospect or customer. Our Series C funding will fuel our strategic, long-term growth plans while supporting on-going investment in our expanding products and services.”
