• Build and work an outbound pipeline through local outreach, league and program play, community events, and member referrals.
• Maintain an active, accurate pipeline in the CRM: log every lead, activity, and next step, and keep records current daily.
• Present membership options, pricing, and promotions accurately; complete agreements and process new member paperwork.
• Support new member onboarding — introductions to staff, programming, and court booking — so members find value early and stay.
• Run retention outreach: member check‑ins, at‑risk follow‑up, renewal conversations, and cancellation saves.
• Generate referrals and member-guest opportunities through relationship building on the club floor.
• Represent Ballers at member events, open houses, leagues, and community or local business outreach.
• Partner with front desk, racquet programming, food and beverage, and operations teams so the sales promise matches the member experience.
• Pass event, corporate, and sponsorship leads to the Director of Sales with clear notes, context, and timely handoff.
• Report weekly on sales activity, conversion rates, and pipeline health.
• Share member feedback and market observations with the Director of Sales to inform pricing, promotions, and programming.
• Follow membership sales Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) and contribute ideas to improve them.
