Key Responsibilities
Outbound sales
- Own proactive outbound sales to schools (hundreds of accounts), building and working a pipeline of new and existing school relationships
- Identify, prioritize, and reach out to target schools; run outreach cadences (calls, email sequences, follow-up)
- Hand off inbound leads to current sales team; this role is dedicated to outbound growth, not inbound coverage
- Serve as the sales team's HubSpot owner: keep account, contact, and deal data accurate and complete
- Build and maintain sales reports and dashboards (pipeline, forecast, conversion, activity) for Executive Director and leadership
- Flag data or process gaps proactively rather than waiting to be asked
- Plan, schedule, and help run webinars aimed at driving site traffic and top-of-funnel interest
- Partner closely with the Director of Marketing on messaging, promotion, timing, and follow-up for webinars and other digital campaigns
- Work with Marketing to convert webinar and site traffic into qualified outbound opportunities
- Maintain relationships with school administrators and decision-makers across a large (100 school) book of business
- Represent Openlight Media at school-facing touchpoints (calls, virtual meetings, occasional travel/conferences as needed)
- Cross-train on sales/customer service processes.
- Work as a proactive partner to leadership, anticipating capacity gaps before they become urgent
- 3-5 years in B2B or outbound sales, with a track record of proactively building pipeline rather than working inbound leads
- Able to build a sales pipeline from scratch and manage it independently, not just work leads that are provided directly
- HubSpot experience required; Zoho CRM experience is a bonus. Comfortable entering and maintaining clean data, running reports, managing pipeline stages, and picking up a new CRM without much training
- Comfortable working directly in website backends to manage accounts and update content, without needing a developer for routine changes
- Solid basic computer skills: file management, remote-support/screen-share tools, and general technical troubleshooting
- Able to independently diagnose and resolve routine customer technology issues rather than escalating them right away
- Quick to pick up new software and systems with minimal ramp-up
- Strong analytical skills; comfortable pulling and presenting sales/performance reports without hand-holding
- Excellent written and verbal communication, especially for outreach to school administrators and decision - makers
- Highly proactive, flexible and self-directed; able to spot gaps and act on them without waiting for direction
- Comfortable managing a large volume of accounts (100 schools) and staying organized
- Willing and able to work closely with Marketing on shared campaigns and initiatives
- Willing to travel for conferences as needed
- Experience selling into K-12, Catholic, or faith-based education markets
- Familiarity with webinar platforms and running webinar-driven campaigns
- Experience with online learning platforms (Thinkific, LearnDash, or similar), since Openlight Media Plus is migrating to Thinkific
- Background at a nonprofit, ministry, or mission-driven organization
- Experience mentoring or cross-training teammates on sales tools and processes
- New outbound pipeline generated and closed per quarter (target to be set with Executive Director)
- HubSpot data accuracy and completeness stay clean without regular cleanup from leadership
- Sales reports and dashboards are current and self-serve for Executive Director and Marketing, with no chasing for numbers
- Webinars and joint campaigns with Marketing hit agreed traffic/attendance and lead targets
- Smooth handling of the growing outbound book with no dropped accounts
