• Ensure we support and engage our sellers so they continue using Square and become vocal advocates and promoters for our products to other sellers.
• Engage senior stakeholders across the company to keep them informed about performance and quickly escalate and unblock any challenges; effectively iterate on the strategy based on feedback and results.
