Account Executive

Account Executive Opportunity

American Sound is growing, and we're investing in the people who drive that growth. As an Account Executive, you won't be selling alone: every deal is backed by a dedicated technical engineer, a defined sales methodology, and a leadership team building a real career path for reps who perform. This is a seat for someone who wants to build a book of business in commercial AV and grow into it, not just fill a quota.

Job Responsibilities:

• Sell commercial audio-visual design, integration, and support solutions to enterprise, healthcare, and education clients
• Drive new business early in your ramp (roughly 70% of your time), shifting toward account growth and retention as your pipeline matures (roughly 30/70)
• Build relationships through networking with commercial and corporate groups to source new opportunities
• Run the full sales cycle: discovery, proposal generation, negotiation, and close
• Partner directly with a dedicated technical engineer to scope and deliver customized client solutions
• Manage your pipeline and forecast using our CRM and sales process

What Success Looks Like:

• You consistently generate net-new pipeline in your target verticals within the first 2 quarters
• You build proposals and negotiate deals independently, using your technical engineer as a resource, not a crutch
• Your existing accounts grow year over year as your book matures
• You operate within a structured sales process (we use MEDDPICC) and keep your pipeline accurately forecasted

What We're Looking For:

Must-haves:

• 5+ years of commercial AV sales experience, with a track record of hitting or exceeding quota
• Demonstrated success managing a full sales cycle, from prospecting through contract negotiation
• Comfort working within a draw-against-commission structure
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to sell technical solutions to non-technical buyers

Nice-to-haves:

• Bachelor's degree in business or a related field
• Experience selling into enterprise, healthcare, or education verticals specifically
• Familiarity with formal sales methodologies (MEDDIC, MEDDPICC, Challenger, etc.)
• Experience managing and forecasting a pipeline

Compensation & Details:

• Schedule: Day shift, MondayFriday
• Compensation: $90K$100K annual draw; once draw is achieved, commission at 30% gross profit
• Benefits: Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance; 401(k); PTO and paid holidays
• Growth: Defined career progression for reps who perform, with clear criteria for advancement
