ActiveCampaign, the leader in Customer Experience Automation (CXA), continues its momentum by welcoming two new members to its leadership team. These additions follow its acquisition of Postmark and DMARC Digests, further demonstrating the SaaS company’s influence on the market.
Tech veteran Sameer Kazi has joined ActiveCampaign as President. Previously, he was CEO of customer engagement platform Cheetah Digital. In that time, Cheetah Digital grew into one of the largest independent enterprise martech companies in the world with offices in 18 countries. Prior, he served in senior leadership roles at Simply Measured and ExactTarget where he led both companies through transformative growth periods. As President, Kazi will build upon the core operations of what has made ActiveCampaign so successful and help prepare it for its next phase of growth. Sameer will report directly to founder and CEO Jason VandeBoom.
In addition, Kelly O’Connell has been elevated to the executive leadership team as Senior Vice President, Product Strategy. In her role, she shapes the product and pricing strategy, and leads the product and design teams. O’Connell has been with ActiveCampaign since 2015, and has held key leadership roles across product, sales and customer success functions in the organization.
With these additions to ActiveCampaign’s leadership bench, the Midwest’s largest SaaS unicorn is positioned to enter its next phase of growth – just surpassing 180,000 customers in over 170 countries worldwide and opening its larger Dublin hub to better serve its EMEA customers.
