Expanding Israeli-based Company, OneBeat, Into The United States With Their First U.S. Hire
Avihai Shnabel, OneBeat’s CRO, needed to expand his sales team into the United States with his first ever U.S. hire. As an Israeli company, Avihai had no clue where to begin to hire his first American candidate. Sloane Staffing hired a Senior Account Executive for OneBeat to drive revenue and grow market share in the U.S.
Avihai Shnabel and OneBeat
Avihai Shnabel is the co-founder of OneBeat, an Israeli based AI-driven retail technology that uses short-term predictions to translate customer behavior into real-time day-to-day actions that maximize sell-through and overall sales. OneBeat has partnered with retailers such as American Eagle, Calvin Klein, Panasonic, and Crocs.
Expanding Israeli-based OneBeat into the United States
Most of OneBeat’s business was built outside of the United States. As an Israeli-based company, OneBeat had operations across Israel, Europe, Latin America, and Asia. Avihai was looking to expand his business into the United States and wanted to make their first American hire, a Senior Account Executive.
Due to this being Avihai’s first American hire, he faced challenges of where to even begin.
Why OneBeat Chose Sloane Staffing
Avihai was referred to Sloane Staffing through a colleague. He ultimately chose Sloane Staffing due to Max Spanier’s knowledge of the industry and ability to walk Avihai through the process of his first U.S. hire. Before Sloane Staffing, Avihai had many unanswered questions and was relieved to find a staffing agency that truly cared about guiding him through the entire hiring journey to find the best candidate for him.
How Sloane Staffing Responded
Once Avihai defined the Senior Account Executive position, Sloane Staffing’s Phil Karch worked to find several candidates that met the exact industry and skill requirements. It was important to Avihai to work with recruiting experts that could explain in-depth as to why these candidates were a good match, stay on top of follow-ups, and encourage candidates that working for OneBeat would benefit them as well. Every candidate brought to Avihai’s attention matched his exact criteria.
The Results
Sloane Staffing found the first American hire to grow OneBeat sales in the United States: a Senior Account Executive with 20+ years of experience from a highly established background. Avihai is extremely pleased with OneBeat’s new hire and feels the confidence to expand and continue to hire with Sloane Staffing.
