InsideSales.com today announced it has completed a $35 million Series B round of financing led by U.S. Venture Partners and joined by existing investor Hummer Winblad Venture Partners.

InsideSales.com is the leading provider of cloud-based, sales automation and predictive analytics for inside sales professionals. The company is well known for its sales research and best practices, as published in the Harvard Business Review, Inc., Forbes, Fast Company, and the latest article in Bloomberg.

"We are leading the revolution of companies adopting the inside sales way of sales," said David Elkington, InsideSales.com founder and CEO. "Our technology is fundamentally changing the way people think about and interact with their prospects and customers. We apply science and statistics to sales, increasing productivity and results for our customers. This funding will help us keep up with the demand in the market, add needed capacity, and to continue to innovate new solutions and technologies that will drive our customers success and growth."

InsideSales.com clients include enterprise powerhouse companies such as Cisco, Dell, Eloqua, Gannett, Groupon, NEC, Marketo, and Seagate. In the last year, InsideSales.com has grown over 100 percent in sales, and 120 percent in employee count. In that same timeframe, the U.S. Patent Office awarded InsideSales.com three patents of its many pending applications.

"InsideSales.com is riding the crest of four different growth trends all at the same time: SaaS, inside sales, internet-based lead generation, and predictive analytics," said Dafina Toncheva, Partner of U.S. Venture Partners.

"Our partnership with InsideSales.com is based on what they have accomplished in growth, execution, and market positioning; as well as their strong vision and proven high velocity analytics-based business model," said Steve Krausz, General Partner of U.S. Venture Partners.

"We have seen the traditional sales model evolve," said Mark Gorenberg, Managing Director, Hummer Winblad. "InsideSales.com is leading the way with an entire platform of software, telephony, and predictive analytics solutions that put their clients in a position of leverage well ahead of their competition."

As part of the financing, Dafina Toncheva will join the InsideSales.com Board of Directors, complementing Mark Gorenberg and recently added Josh James, Founder of Omniture and CEO and Founder of Domo. David Elkington, Ken Krogue (founder and President) also serve on the InsideSales.com Board of Directors.
