About you:
1.

You engage in meaningful conversations:

As a Business Development Representative, you will be committed to listening closely to school leaders so that you can craft and lead an engaging conversation.

To do that you will also learn and become knowledgeable about topics impacting school leaders including school choice, online presence, competition for teachers, students, and mindshare.

2.

You demonstrate value:
In your conversations, you will lead with insights first and the product second.

Instead of talking about what our product can do, you'll discuss why school districts and schools need a strong brand to compete and be effective.

You'll present a compelling story about the challenges that school leaders are experiencing and then deliver new insights to solve those same challenges.

3.

You prepare intentionally & proactively:

To be successful, you will have to make it a project to be at the top of your game every day.

You must be adept at managing your time effectively and prepare in advance for calls and meetings so that you can be completely focused on the person you are speaking with.

4.

You focus on long-term growth (not short-term sales): We are intent on reaching our monthly, quarterly, and yearly goals and continuing to drive the growth of Apptegy while still crafting an excellent experience for school leaders.

We never compromise "just to make the sale" and believe that we can create value for us, for our clients, and for our investors.

5.

You're curious & coachable:
We think differently about many things, especially sales.

Your responsibility is to be curious about how we are doing things and to be coachable by taking feedback seriously.

What is true of you?An aptitude for challenge & a track record of success:

  • You have completed a four-year college degree with a high GPA or have comparable, continuous work experience.
  • You have an impressive track record in your academic and work history.
  • You have been in a fast-paced working environment and know how to pick up tech tools quickly.
  • You can stay positive even if you get told "no" often.
An ability to manage your day and be effective & efficient:

  • You have managed your own workflow and schedule.
  • You do not need someone to guide your day or tell you what to do next.

Remarkable communication and presentation skills:

  • You enjoy and have experience presenting or communicating in a professional environment.
  • You know how to write effective emails and engage professionally across all channels (phone, video, written)

An ability and desire to build rapport:

  • You are not afraid to pick up the phone or walk up to a stranger.
  • You enjoy building professional relationships and always look for opportunities to make more contacts.

What else should I know?We take our responsibility as a company seriously and aim to make this the best job that you've had (and one that sets you up for future success).

We want your day at work and your time at home to be a joyful experience that's why we provide:

  • Medical, dental, vision insurance for you and dependents
  • Matching 401(k) retirement plan
  • Discretionary/flexible paid time off policy
