Business Development

Looking to take your sales career to the next level in 2010? You have the “right stuff”, but need the “right environment” to hit your goals?  Need a career where the results of your hard work pay off with generous commissions? Maybe you are tired of restrictive commission programs or maybe even your income being “capped.”

Your leadership, ambition and drive is what set’s you apart from most sales people you know. You know where you want to be, just need the right opportunity to get there. Taking action and being responsible for your actions is comfortable to you as well as moving the sales process along and turning prospects into customers.  More importantly, you know the difference between a prospect and a customer and recognize that without good prospecting habits, there can be no new customers.

You are skilled at communicating 'value of offering' over the price point, and working with a set of services that are the best in their class. Your effective questioning and qualifying skills are almost as good as your active listening. You know the difference between being assertive and aggressive and that staying composed in the sales process is key. Your past and current clients and customers enjoy dealing with you and for making the sales experience a refreshing experience. Filled with “follow through” and not just “ follow up.”

If this sounds like you, then get in touch and start the process of taking your sales career to the next level in 2010. After all, don’t your goals deserve it as much as you do?

Primary duties include:

• Comfortable calling people out of the blue, repeatedly.
• Listen to clients.
• Listen some more... determine their business problems, challenges and opportunities.
• Sell great services.
• Keep our clients happy. They will be back—and then you start listening again... (but you know all this).

Qualifications:

• Willing to travel, infrequent, but possible.
• Business or marketing education and/or experience preferred.
• Familiarity in Web marketing and/or Web technologies.
• Excellent English language and business writing skills.
• Presentation and public speaking skills.
• Excellent communication and customer relation skills.
