Annual portfolio built from zero
20+ banks and credit unions
Mark Barlowe Strategic sales · Business development · Client growth
I create new business—and stay accountable for what comes next.
I’m an Atlanta-based full-cycle B2B revenue builder who creates pipeline, leads complex decisions, and grows long-term client relationships. My recent record was built with banks and credit unions, where trust and follow-through are part of the sale.

The short version
I can open the door, make the case, and grow the relationship.
I have built two books of business from zero: more than $350K in local and regional advertising and, later, a $1.09M portfolio of banks and credit unions.
I am strongest when the sale is consultative, the buyer is senior, and success depends on keeping the promise after the signature—not simply handing the account to someone else.
Where I fit best
Senior account executive
Self-sourced pipeline, consultative discovery, negotiation, closing, and quota ownership.
Business development
New markets, complex offers, executive relationships, and disciplined opportunity creation.
Strategic partnerships & client growth
Retention, expansion, cross-functional leadership, and long-term commercial ownership.
How I build an advantage
Better customer understanding. Better decisions. Better revenue infrastructure.
I use AI where it creates commercial leverage: understanding an account faster, preserving what the customer actually said, improving the decision, and building the follow-through when the existing process is incomplete.
Research beyond the surface.
I connect institutional data, market context, stakeholder coverage, and conversation history so outreach and discovery begin with a useful point of view.
Turn evidence into a clear next move.
I use client conversations, performance data, and operating constraints to build stronger proposals, sharper recommendations, and executive-ready reporting.
Make good work repeatable.
I have built CRM-ready research, conversation-intelligence workflows, and source-verification practices that turn fragmented information into usable commercial infrastructure.

What I’m looking for
A meaningful growth mandate with room to build, lead, and stay close to the customer.
I am open to senior individual-contributor and player-coach opportunities in Atlanta, hybrid, or remote environments. Financial services is where I built my recent record; complex B2B growth is the broader work I know how to do.
