About the role:

  • Sales Strategy and Pipeline Management:

    • Utilize CRM tools and sales analytics to effectively manage leads, opportunities, and sales activities.
  • Customer Engagement and Relationship Building:
    • Cultivate strong relationships with key stakeholders within enterprise client organizations, including C-level executives, business leaders, and technical decision-makers.
    • Understand customer needs, challenges, and objectives, and position our Genspark AI Agents as transformative tools to address their business goals.
    • Conduct consultative sales meetings, product demonstrations, and presentations to articulate the value proposition of our AI products and drive customer engagement.
  • Contract Proposal and Negotiation:
    • Collaborate with internal technical and marketing teams to develop contract proposals that align with customer requirements and priorities.

Qualifications:

  • Highly self-motivated and results-driven, with a passion for driving revenue growth and exceeding sales targets.
  • Strong communicator and collaborator: be direct and assertive while demonstrating respect and positive regard for others.
  • Dependable: no handholding required to push work forward, and can survive and thrive in an environment with chaotic inbound work tasks.
  • Creative: You’ll be on point to develop and iterate on messaging, pitches, sales strategies, and pricing structures, as well as handle tough customer questions.
  • Deeply, conceptually technical with a voracious appetite to learn: you don’t need to code, but you need to get familiar enough with the nuances of your product and your market
  • Self-aware and honest: We want you to be open about skills or experience gaps and capable of accepting and acting on feedback.
  • Accountable: You are willing to take ownership, are driven to constantly improve, and show a high tolerance for change and ambiguity.
