SaaStr 848: How AI Is Rewiring Sales: Quota, Retention & What's Actually Working with SaaStr, Salesforce and Mangomint In this episode, three revenue leaders at very different stages of AI adoption get real about what's actually working, what's embarrassingly broken, and why nobody should be doubling quota just yet. Panelists: Greg Beltzer — Chief Customer Officer, AgentForce (Salesforce) Ashley Wilson — Co-founder, Momentum by Salesforce Marchelle Mooney — VP of Sales, Mangomint Amelia Lerutte - Chief AI Officer, SaaStr They cover: Why every company has leads they never followed up on (yes, even Salesforce) The "chainsaw without the cover off" problem with AI tool rollouts How Mangomint uses AI to fix terrible salon logos in minutes — and why it freaks customers out Why Marchelle is not raising quota in 2026, even though she could The real resistance to AI adoption (hint: it's not just the CIO) How Momentum is using AI to democratize language for SDRs in Argentina What retention looks like when AI is listening for slow-drip churn signals Why your data is probably worse than you think — and what that means for agents Key takeaway: AI won't magically fix your sales org. Your data has to be clean, your people need training, and you have to rethink workflows from first principles — not just bolt AI onto the old playbook.

What happens when you go all-in on AI tools in a completely remote organization at scale? That's where Marchelle Mooney, VP of Sales at MangoMint, found herself. MangoMint is vertical SaaS for salons and spas with a ~$4K ACV and a five-day sales cycle. Not exactly the profile you'd expect to be running one of the most disciplined remote revenue organizations in SaaS. But Marchelle's team is closing in on a 7.2x ARR-to-OTE ratio, has increased win rates 7% in two quarters, and has given reps 16 hours back per month. All fully remote, all with lean headcount. In this session, Marchelle breaks down the exact three-layer AI Rigor Stack she built to get there: the Clarity Layer, the Cadence Layer, and the Co-Pilot Layer. She also walks through the full tool stack (Notion, Slack, Salesforce, Snowflake, Sigma, Momentum) and how data flows automatically to reps without them ever hunting for a dashboard. The core insight: the problem was never the tools. It was fragmentation. And the path to fixing it runs through subtraction, not addition. If you're running a remote or hybrid revenue org and feel like you're running fast but not getting anywhere, this one's for you. ------ Hey everybody - we are LESS THAN 60 DAYS out from the biggest B2B and AI event of the year. SaaStr Annual is coming back to the SF Bay Area this May, and if you're not registered yet, what are you waiting for? This is where the real deals get done. 68% VP-level and above. 36% CEOs and founders. 25% AI-first professionals. This isn't a conference, this is THE room where S-tier decision makers show up to figure out what's next. But here's the deal: ticket prices go up FAST. Like, actually hundreds. Don't be that person who waits and then pays full price. Lock in your spot TODAY. Go to podcast.saastrannual.com and use my exclusive discount for SaaStr AI SF 2026. May is closer than you think. See you there.

SaaStr 787: 10 Ways Sales is Different in Vertical SaaS with Mangomint's VP of Sales Marchelle Mooney While some might dismiss sector-specific vertical SaaS software as 'too small' or 'too niche', companies like Veeva ($40B), Clio ($3B), Toast ($1.3B), and Slice ($1B) have proven there's massive value in going deep rather than broad. Mangomint has quietly built an impressive vertical SaaS business in the spa and salon space, growing 100% year-over-year to approach $20M ARR with 110% NRR. So we asked Mangomint's VP of Sales Marchelle Mooney to share 10 ways sales is different in vertical SaaS. Marchelle's personal journey took her from early adopter of Mangomint, to 6 years later, VP of Sales over a 25+ person SMB sales team. Here's some of what she's learned along the way. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- SaaStr hosts the largest SaaS community events on the planet.
