You will also help establish stronger sales standards across the organization through coaching, performance management, process improvement, and the thoughtful use of sales technology.

  • Build and run reactivation campaigns for aged and closed-lost opportunities
  • Reduce stage-to-stage drop-off across the funnel, beginning with the weakest-performing stage

Channel Partner Lead Management

  • Join live deals when a representative needs support moving an opportunity forward

Knowledge and Compliance

  • Own the sales knowledge base as the company’s single source of truth
  • Maintain the content that powers our AI sales chat assistant
  • Establish a regular review cadence so customer-facing information remains accurate and current
