Other Duties:
Assist the sales organization with responses to smaller requests from customers for information, proposals, and quotes.
Participate in industry events with sales and marketing to remain engaged in opportunities.
Assist the BC team in maintaining a library of language used in prior customer responses to ease and speed the development of responses to new customer requests (reduce turnaround times).
