Jason Miller is the VP of Sales at Unify, a signal-based selling platform helping go-to-market teams connect buyer intent to personalized outreach at scale.

Before Unify, Jason spent just over seven years at Monday.com, joining as one of the first 12 US sales hires when the company was almost entirely PLG and didn't even believe it needed a sales team. He helped build the outbound motion from the ground up, moved into sales leadership, and scaled the company through hypergrowth to IPO.

Prior to Monday.com, Jason was at Convey (now project44), where he took over the founder-led sales playbook and built out the SDR and AE teams in the scrappiest of environments where you either learn fast or you don't last.

He came up reading Predictable Revenue, built his career on the belief that inputs always drive outputs, and carries a clear philosophy into every org he joins: hire slow, keep the bar high, and don't confuse quota attainment with talent.
