I love Shanai ❤️
Shanai by Amirsnm December 10, 2019
Shanai is a beautiful girl. She gets very self concious around other girls but finds it easy to be herself around boys. She's been hurt before.. You can tell she's scared to make some commitments. She is also the kind of person who loves to hang around the same people until they decide to get irratating. She always tries to look her best, even when theres no one around. People hate her. She doesnt care. She's a strong, loving, bubbly, sometimes crazy person.
Shanai is an awesome person

In sales terms, a whale is a prospect that is significantly larger than an organization’s average customer.

Whales are large and extremely difficult to close. Due to their immense size, they are highly sought-after.

A whale is typically identified at first by a whale hunter on the sales team, but often requires cross-discipline participation in order to close; this includes assistance from operations, engineering, creative, client success, and business development teams.
"Shit...the sales director chewed me out on the sales call this morning. He's totally pissed that I have nothing in my pipeline. I've been focused on this one whale for so long that I haven't had time to prospect for normal-sized deals."
