$44.13 - $60.72 per hour

ActiveCampaign

Job Title

On a typical day, you might:

  • Manage a strategic book of business consisting of core ICP accounts, including mapping target brands, analyzing verticals, and utilizing account tiering to deeply understand a business's structure and platform fit.
  • Self-source high-fit accounts from the ground up, identifying and engaging prospects that perfectly align with our core value proposition.
  • Execute daily outbound prospecting initiatives to build a healthy, net-new business pipeline, leveraging creative and unconventional outreach strategies to break into target accounts.
  • Conduct deep discovery utilizing the Sandler sales methodology to uncover core business problems, quantify their impact, and architect tailored solutions.
  • Manage the full sales cycle of complex deals, partnering closely with internal cross-functional stakeholders to embrace a "team selling" mindset and push opportunities across the finish line.
  • Engage with prospects and partners both virtually and in person at relevant industry forums and networking events to expand the ACHQ footprint.
  • Collaborate daily with your immediate teammates to foster a "win as one" culture, driving collective success across the unit.
  • Share weekly innovative ideas with the team, actively analyzing what unique strategies were attempted, measuring the results, and iterating on successful outcomes.

The ideal candidate will bring:

  • 46+ years of quota-carrying experience in a SaaS solution-selling environment, with a proven track record where the majority of your quota attainment was driven by outbound-sourced pipeline.
  • 13+ years of specialized experience selling directly into franchise or multi-location businesses, demonstrating a deep understanding of the unique dynamics of this industry.
  • Proven experience selling into the Mid-Market/Commercial segment, with a demonstrated ability to navigate complex business structures.
  • Familiarity with Sandler or Challenger sales methodologies, and a strong preference for working with a "book of business" approach to outbound selling.
  • A strong knowledge of the email & online marketing space, allowing you to act as a consultative subject matter expert from day one.
  • An entrepreneurial, self-motivated mindset with a "go-getter" attitude and a driven approach toward consistently achieving new revenue goals.
  • Proven consultative sales solution skills, with the ability to maintain a high level of productivity and manage multiple competing priorities under tight time constraints in a fast-paced, complex environment.
  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills, allowing you to quickly build trust, relate to diverse stakeholders, and establish strong working relationships with internal cross-functional partners.
  • A highly coachable attitude, with an eager desire to learn, grow, and continuously share feedback to elevate the entire team.
