Melissa McCready - Orange County/Silicon Valley - Growth & Rev Ops Advisor

Hi Everyone!

So exciting to be here! Thanks Shea and Ashley for bringing this to life!

Where I Work:

I work wherever my clients need me to be! Lots of remote work normally, which is a lot of people's new normal (hit me up if you need any life hacks for working remote!).

Fun Fact:

I got Evan Liang to dance!

About Me:

I am originally from the northwest suburbs of Illinois, then moved to Silicon Valley to continue my career in tech where I remained for almost 20 years. 3.5 years ago I high tailed it down to SoCal (San Clemente). My commute to Silicon Valley is shorter than when I lived in San Jose and had to drive in rush hour to San Francisco! I have been doing Rev/Growth Operations before it was even a thing, so now having a community to talk to is amazing to me!

My husband, our two kids and bulldog, Diesel, love living close to the ocean. I am very involved in the community in San Clemente and coach cheer (I've go spirit, how about you?!). 

My RevOps Story:

I call Rev Ops "Growth Ops" because I believe that growth is a much more customer focused approach, and revenue is a result of growth. I've taken rebranding RevOps to task and am about to relaunch MOCCA (www.joinmocca.com) as their elected President, to be called "The Growth Operations Community" (TGOC). Our first virtual event as TGOC will be May 20th! Super cool stuff!

Oh, and not to forget (how could I!) that last year I was the Content Chair for the OpsStars roadshows and big show! BEST JOB EVER, by the way!!!!

Looking forward to meeting you all!
