- Consultative selling: understanding customer needs, providing customized solutions and working on long-term partnerships.
- Responsibility for the entire sales cycle from demo to deal and extension: from conducting product demonstrations to negotiating and successfully completing deals.
- Collaboration: working with our revenue team to ensure a steady flow of qualified leads, and with the customer success team for a smooth handover after the sale.
- Pipeline management: ensuring a current and accurate sales pipeline in our CRM system (Salesforce or HubSpot) and correctly tracking all opportunities.
- Meet targets: meet or exceed your quarterly goals in terms of sales and closed deals.
