9:37 ET -- Lightspeed Commerce is scaling up its sales team to pick up on more outbound opportunities. In the earnings call, CEO Dax Dasilva says the company is moving quickly to fill all of its outbound positions, about 150 of them. He noted that outbound sales reps require some time to fully ramp up, usually around six months of lag between hiring and results, but says they bring in higher-quality customers given their expertise in the field. "Thus far the results are very encouraging," he says, noting that "March was our best month yet for outbound revenue, which was driven by faster go-live times, higher average gross transaction volume per location and higher productivity per rep."
