• Build and consistently manage a healthy pipeline of prospective clients
• Develop long-term client relationships that lead to renewals, upsells, and additional opportunities
• Meet and exceed individual monthly sales and revenue goals
• Maintain accurate prospect, pipeline, and client activity
• Collaborate with the team in a fast-moving, results-oriented environment

What We’re Looking For

• Previous sales experience, with B2B, outbound, inside sales, or business development experience strongly preferred
