DALLAS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Thryv^® (NASDAQ: THRY), the leading do-it-all small business software platform, has announced two new sales leadership appointments, including the promotion of Fran Lee to Vice President, North American Sales. In his new role, Lee will oversee Thryv’s U.S. and Canadian sales teams, franchise sales and global sales training. Reporting to Thryv President Grant Freeman, he will leverage his extensive experience driving revenue growth and nurturing high-performance sales teams to accelerate the company’s expansion of its sales and marketing software offerings designed to support small business growth.

An industry veteran, Lee has been with Thryv since its inception, most recently serving as Regional Vice President of Sales. Prior to Thryv, Lee spent eight years with Dex Media as Regional Vice President and eventually Head of Outside Sales. He also spent a substantial portion of his sales career with Verizon.

“Fran’s extensive industry experience and track record of accelerating SaaS revenue growth will prove invaluable as we expand our sales and marketing automations and AI-supported product offerings. Small businesses are adopting software solutions in growing numbers and with Fran’s dynamic sales leadership, Thryv is well-positioned to capitalize on this trend,” said Freeman.

Thryv also announced Kim Mortensen as Vice President of Global Partnerships and Sales. Mortensen previously spent 10 years at Keap where she led revenue and growth via new customer acquisition for both channel and direct sales. Mortensen will now leverage the synergies created by Thryv’s acquisition of Keap and its product and partner ecosystem to expand market reach and enhance Thryv’s solutions portfolio.

“As Thryv continues to evolve the sales organization to align with our strategic growth plans, we are thrilled to have such an accomplished sales professional as Kim on our team,” said Freeman. “Her successful track record of driving scalable growth through both partner and direct sales will serve us well, particularly as we look to expand our global reach.”
