Account Executive

This position is not for order takers. If you’re looking for someone to feed you leads and set your appointments for you, let’s save each other time. This isn’t a good fit for you or for us. Yes, we do marketing, and yes, we generate leads, but great sales people don’t rely on that because they know that success in selling requires initiative, ownership, responsibility, accountability, tenacity, fortitude, knowledge, skills, and talent. If that describes you, read on.

• Attend meetings as directed.
• Document all sales activities in our sales tools and systems

• Provide constant feedback to management on what you see and hear and what your prospects are saying to you; Openly share information and knowledge with your colleagues.
• Come to work every day with a positive demeanor and perform as both an enthusiastic individual and as a positive member of a team, collaborating opening, closely and when necessary, as directed, with colleagues and partners.
• Be an active overall team player, not just on the sales team, but with everyone in the entire company in order to help meet company objectives.
• Be aware of, and comply with, all corporate policies.
