NOTE: Beecher was recently promoted to President in June 2016.
SAN MATEO, Calif., May 4, 2016 ‘ Morpheus Data, one of the first infrastructure-agnostic platform as a service (PaaS) solutions, today announced that Pete Beecher has been promoted to Vice President of Sales.
Beecher has been promoted to this new position after being with the company for only six months. Originally tasked with managing Morpheus Data’s quickly growing channel partner program, he has now been asked to take a stronger leadership position to help grow overall sales at Morpheus Data.
“Pete has a wealth of experience in our industry,” said Jeff Drazan, Chairman and CEO of Morpheus Data. “We brought Pete in initially to run channel sales, and he quickly demonstrated the leadership we are looking for to run all of our sales efforts. We’re lucky to have talent like Pete so early in the game at Morpheus.”
Since Beecher first jointed the Morpheus Data team, sales have increased significantly, achieving quarter over quarter growth well over 100 percent. In his new role, Beecher will continue to grow the sales team, adding more territories and representatives nationwide.
“I could not be more excited about this opportunity,” said Beecher. “To join such a strong and capable team at a critical time during the company’s evolution is really exciting. We’ve already seen more customer acceptance than any other product launch I have been exposed to, and I feel confident that this is only the beginning of a larger ramp as we expand our coverage.”
Prior to Morpheus Data, Beecher spent 15 years at Cisco where he started as a product specialist and worked his way up to become a regional sales manager. Beecher earned a bachelor’s degree from Idaho State University, and an MBA from University of Phoenix. He is also a Certified Information Systems Security Professional (CISSP).
