What You'll Sell: The Thryv Growth Platform

Thryv's new Growth Platform is built around three growth outcomes for local service businesses: get found, win more customers, and invest smarter. It is designed to work with the tools businesses already use rather than requiring them to replace their entire technology stack.

GET FOUND: Online listings, reputation management, social media management, professional websites, and tools that strengthen a business's online visibility.

WIN MORE CUSTOMERS: Thryv Leads, Search Boosts, Ads Boosts, Growth/Brand/Social Boosts, and AI Lead Insights that help identify high-intent opportunities and recommended next actions.

INVEST SMARTER: Reporting and ROI insights that help business owners understand which marketing activities are driving leads, customers, and revenue.

WORK WITH THE TOOLS THEY ALREADY USE: Integrations that allow businesses to keep the systems they rely on while connecting growth data, leads, and insights.

You do not need to be a software expert on day one. We will train you on the platform, sales motion, and tools you need to confidently lead conversations with business owners.

In This Role, You'll Get To:

\n
• Build a territory and create new business through proactive prospecting.
\n
• Help local business owners improve visibility, generate demand, convert opportunities, and grow revenue.
\n
• Sell a modern, AI-powered SaaS platform designed specifically for local service businesses.
\n
• Develop consultative selling skills through structured training, coaching, and ongoing sales enablement.
\n
• Work in a high-accountability sales culture where your results and development matter.
\n
• Bring your ideas, competitive energy, and creativity to the way we grow our business.
\n

We're Looking For People Who:

\n
• Have a hunter mindset and genuinely enjoy prospecting for new business.
\n
• Are motivated by goals, competition, and measurable results.
\n
• Can build rapport quickly with small business owners and earn credibility in a short sales cycle.
\n
• Know how to create and manage a self-generated pipeline.
\n
• Can clearly explain technology and business value in simple, customer-friendly language.
\n
• Take coaching well, apply feedback quickly, and continuously improve.
\n
• Are resilient when deals do not go your way and stay persistent without losing professionalism.
\n
• Can work independently while staying accountable to a structured sales process.
\n

Basic Qualifications

\n
• 3+ years of direct sales experience required; SaaS, software, technology, SMB, or business-services sales experience is a plus.
\n
• 2+ years in an outbound, full-cycle sales role with responsibility for prospecting through close.
\n
• Demonstrated experience generating pipeline through phone, email, networking, referrals, or other proactive methods.
\n
• A track record of meeting or exceeding sales goals or quotas.
\n
• Strong written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills.
\n
• Strong organization and time-management skills with the ability to manage a pipeline and competing priorities.
\n
• Comfort working independently in a field-based sales environment.
\n
• Valid driver's license and ability to meet a 50% driving requirement.
\n
• Must live locally to the posted market, generally within a one-hour commute.
\n

The Field Experience

This is a territory-based, field sales role. You will work from a home office between customer meetings, but you should expect to spend more than 50% of your time in the field meeting local business owners, prospecting within your territory, and building your local network.
