NEW YORK–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Catchpoint Systems, Inc., a digital performance analytics company, today announced the hiring of technology industry veteran Robert (Bob) Ranaldi as its first Chief Operating Officer. This strategic move will bolster Catchpoint’s international expansion as Ranaldi grows the company’s worldwide sales effort and operations.
Ranaldi will be responsible for enhancing customer relationships and support; devising go-to market resources and strategy for sales; and all other elements of sales team enablement including training. He will be based in Catchpoint’s Boston offices and report to founder and CEO Mehdi Daoudi.
