Enable is a rapidly growing software tech company that specializes in cloud based B2B (business to business) rebate management solutions. B2B companies can run into obstacles when managing the data that shows which customer deserves what value rebate at what benchmark. This obstacle is what Enable aims to solve.

Enable expanded to the Toronto Region just last year<\/a> and has experienced tremendous growth in that time. Enable recently landed $94 million in funding to add to its Toronto team and maintain its high-quality services. We sat down with Enable CEO and Co-founder Andrew Butt to discuss how the Enable team is managing this growth and what brought them to this point.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: <\/strong>How has Enable grown since first landing in the Toronto Region over a year ago?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

At this time last year, we had 25 employees in Toronto, and were making a bet on the city as our North American operational headquarters. Now we just onboarded our 128th<\/sup> Enablee (Enable employee) in the Toronto office. The growth has been astonishing, and Toronto\u2019s talent pool has helped us keep pace. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Overall, by the end of this year we\u2019ll have 435 employees throughout the US, UK, Canada, and Australia. We will continue to hire and build the team across all departments and geographies in the coming year. This has been a big year of growth for us. In Toronto specifically, we\u2019re hiring for sales, product, engineering, marketing, finance, people, customer success, information technology, and workplaces. At the start of the year, we had one floor in our building at 545 King Street West and had no idea how we would use all that space. Fast forward to today, and we\u2019ve just taken on an additional floor in Toronto, giving us a total of nearly 15,000 square feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: <\/strong>How has the experience been operating in the Toronto Region?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We selected Toronto as the headquarters for our North American operations because of its amazing tech talent pool. This combined with the overall quality of life, the walkability of the city \u2013 especially in the downtown area where we\u2019re based \u2013 and the unique cultural aspects the city exudes.

Finally, it\u2019s such an easy place to get to and such a lovely city to spend time in. Our global teams regularly gather in Toronto because of how easy it is for us to travel and connect there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: <\/strong>What are your plans for the future?<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We want to keep creating an immense amount of value for our customers so that we can continue to help ease the friction that exists in today\u2019s supply chain. If we can do this well, not only is this good for Enable and our continued growth in the rebate management category, but it\u2019s also good for businesses overall. The more seamlessly they can serve as an extension of one another, the easier it is to build a healthy, thriving ecosystem at every stage of the supply chain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When this happens, it\u2019s great for the partners in the supply chain, the businesses and consumers that are on the buying end of the supply chain, and the overall diversity of the supply chain. The more diverse, local, and seamless we can make our supply chain, the more resilient it will be. That\u2019s what we want to solve, and we\u2019ll keep building with our clients and increasing their collaborative partners until we get there.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: <\/strong>What kind of talent is Enable looking to hire in the Toronto Region?<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Our North American revenue and customer success teams operate out of Toronto, so we\u2019re always looking for more candidates to support our efforts there. We also have members of our product, engineering, marketing, finance, people, information technology, and workplaces teams in Toronto. Each of these teams has grown quite a bit in Toronto already this year. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Q: <\/strong>What is your most valued philosophy or motto for running a business?<\/strong> <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Always talk with your customers, those who you\u2019d like to be your customers, those that look like your customers, or those that are around them. I aim to meet new people every day. Some of this happens naturally when helping to sell the value of Enable and when meeting with customers, there\u2019s almost always a new face in the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Meeting new people in general can be very helpful to understanding your market, your fit, and what additional problems you might be able to solve. So, it is important to think of investors, customers, other founders and CEOs, thought leaders, and yes, prospects. I\u2019ve experienced the most success in the least likely connections. It\u2019s serendipity, and it\u2019s fueled a lot of Enable\u2019s success.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
