SelectHub software sales representative job description

Inside Sales/Software Advisor

This is the best Inside Sales position you may ever have because you are actually helping people and making great money (and not cold calling and bothering people who are not interested in your product or service.) No online presentations or heavy-duty selling either. All you do is follow up with people who have requested access to SelectHub's software platform or downloaded information searching for answers for their software research needs. You call these individuals to better understand their needs and make relevant product recommendations. This saves them so much valuable time and money trying to find these products and companies on their own. Extensive in office training for first 3 months, and commission eligible day one!

Our Software Advisors average 10-15 conversations daily with a high conversion rate. Position pays a competitive salary, commissions, and bonuses that all accelerate for exceeding performance targets. That also includes uncapped commissions and valuable stock options. Your compensation is completely performance based, no seniority required to advance and make more money. You can eventually work hybrid or completely remotely once you have proven yourself.

Company:
• Ranked in the top 50 fastest growing software companies by Inc. Magazine two years in a row!
• SelectHub provides a cloud-based software platform and crowd-sourced best-practices for selecting and implementing enterprise software. There are thousands of monthly visitors to SelectHub consuming their valuable content to help guide them with their important software selection process. The software platform's core value is to help people find the best matching enterprise software for their company faster, easier, and in a more collaborative manner.
• Website, blog, and content assets register over 62 million impressions a year organically and via paid advertising, partner properties, social media, email, and offline interactions, reaching well over 35 million unique users worldwide annually.
• On average, 60% of all software buyers interact with them sometime during their buying cycle.

Qualifications:
• Previous inside or outside sales experience or recent college graduate preferred.
• You are not afraid of going through 100+ dials to reach your daily conversation goals.
• You have a student mentality, are open to coaching, and can learn new processes and technologies quickly.
• You always maintain a positive attitude, you have exceptional “people” skills, and you think on your feet under pressure.
• Most importantly, you have the discipline to get stuff done with zero excuses!
