Krystal Piquot

The sense for contact

These days, working at FiveForty° as part of her alternating higher education, Krystal is going for a bachelors degree of technologies in marketing at the Paris Nanterre university. Filled with the energy of her soon to be 21 candles, she unveils some fragments of her life journey and her ambitions.

“I grew up in Alsace, in a very small four hundred inhabitants village. With my grandma, we went biking to the farm to get milk in crooked-up metal containers” she smiles. A childhood also rhythmed by a thousand and one Summer jobs during school holidays. A restaurant server on weekends, a stocker or advisor in distribution houses… she got close to many professional endeavors.

The sense for contact

These days, working at FiveForty° as part of her

alternating higher education, Krystal is going for a

bachelors degree of technologies in marketing at the

Paris Nanterre university. Filled with the energy of her

soon to be 21 candles, she unveils some fragments of her

journey and her ambitions.

milk in crooked-up metal containers” she smiles. A childhood

also rhythmed by a thousand and one Summer jobs during

school holidays. A restaurant server on weekends, a stocker

or advisor in distribution houses… she got close to many

Deep frozen deliveries

This is what the Strasbourg native retains: “I always liked human contact, to talk

with people. At Maximo, the specialist of deep frozen product delivery, I ensured the

order-taking tours on rather intense schedules.” But her warm disposition in this

“polar” universe is an ace in her sleeve. It comforts her in the commercial orientation

of her current training: “As long as I remember, I have always appreciated dialogue

and being near others.” Which goes to show that passion doesn’t wait for one to be

‘old enough’.

Data mining

From the start, her feel for contact did not go unnoticed at FiveForty°: “At the very

beginning, my first assignment consisted in improving the management of the

CRM. The last data update had been three years prior. Sorting, classifying and

therefore refreshing of the database for the CRM were indispensable. In addition,

I had to research new leads about companies working with D365 or AX. Once the

update was completed, and close to 200 enterprises contacted, I must have sent

something like 1,000 e-mails!.”

Today, Krystal has extended the field of her involvement. “As FiveForty° is now active

in the US, I also took on the creation of the United States leads database. I have a

new CRM tool at my disposal, with many more features and filters, allowing

considerable time savings compared with the first app I was using, from which I

ensured the data migration.” Presently, Krystal is still training, “as this is what I like

a lot here, I learn every day. The interaction, the help between coworkers is a daily

thing with the Teams group. One is never alone.”

CRM and KTM

When she is not targeting prospects, Krystal gives in to her big passions.

Among these: pastry making of which she appreciates in particular its difficulty and

precision. “I need to know if it’s going to be a hit or a flop. Among hard to make

recipes, I master rather well that of the macarons (which I hate, btw). For me,

overcoming the difficulty of the ‘macaronnage’, this precise mixing time of an

Italian-style meringue with almonds and egg whites is very stimulating!.” As for

drawing, her taste takes her towards themes that could be those of tattoos.

“The tattoo artist is for me like a painter who doesn’t use a canvas but rather the

body.” Ever since she was a small girl, she adores bikes. At sixteen, she got her 125cc

license. Now the holder of an unrestricted bike license, she regrets that Paris may

not be the ideal place. “Therefore, when I got here I chose to resell my KTM Duke.”

A machine that, just like Krystal, does not lack in character.

 

Today, with her dual student and wage earner status, Krystal projects herself

medium term. “The goal would be to remain at FiveForty° at the end of my dual

education as I love the listening that reigns in this human-sized company. And also,

for each one, to be able to tell oneself that their work is visible and participates to

the development of the enterprise is very uplifting!” °
