Location: Fully-Remote (Work from Home), 9 AM - 5 PM EST

Key Responsibilities

  • Transition to Full Sales Cycle (Ramp-Up Phase): As you ramp up and gain more experience, you will begin managing the full sales cycle, including presenting pricing, negotiating terms, and managing the contract signing process.

  • Closing Deals (Ramp-Up Phase): Once ramped, you will take on the responsibility of closing new business, driving the process from qualification to signed agreements and recurring revenue.

  • CRM Usage: Track and manage leads, opportunities, and sales activities in CRM effectively.

  • CRM Proficiency: Experience using CRM systems (Zoho is highly advantageous) to track and manage sales activities and opportunities.

  • Excellent Communication Skills: Fluent English written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to engage prospects and close deals. Accents should be clear and easy to understand, focusing on neutral or American/British/Australian English.

  • Goal-Oriented: Results-driven with the ability to meet and exceed sales targets and KPIs.

  • Positive Attitude: A great attitude, hungry to learn, motivated to succeed, and driven by a passion for closing new business.

  • Follow-up & Persistence: Strong follow-up skills to maintain engagement and move prospects through the sales process.

  • Self-Motivated: Ability to work independently, managing your own pipeline and sales activities without constant supervision.
