Sonja Gray caught "inbound" fever over 20 years ago when a national yellow page directory company hired her as a sales rep.

She has spent some time during her career in business intelligence and demand generation companies and has been in sales, sales operations, client delivery and marketing departments. Learning how to use the analytics that can be gained through online behavior has been a motivating journey. She believes there is always something to learn and ways to improve.
