  • Contribute to our business growth in a fast-paced, collaborative, and fun atmosphere.
  • Consistently meet (and exceed) your annual sales quota.

We’re Excited to Learn More About You

  • 3 years of quota-carrying, full-cycle prospecting to closing, B2B sales experience.
  • Experience consulting prospects and customers on business objectives, challenges, and impacts to provide broader business coaching to close deals, going beyond the basic product demo.
  • Strong consultative selling skills - able to go beyond product features and provide meaningful business coaching.
  • Successful track record achieving or exceeding new business or territory growth targets by prospecting, discovery, business consulting and negotiating and closing.
  • Excellent verbal and written communication skills.
  • A self-motivated, high-energy person that can thrive in a competitive but fun team environment.
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Word, Excel, Outlook, and PowerPoint.
  • Bachelor’s degree or equivalent work experience.

You may have other skills or credentials, including:
