You will build relationships with decision makers, and you will develop an understanding of your schools and district’s needs and how your product can fulfill them.

Initially, you will be focused on the small- to medium-sized school districts. You understand the sales process and know how to work through the sales funnel to closure, and you are skilled at doing this primarily from an inside sales position. You will only travel as needed to run a demonstration or if necessary to close a sale. You must be a clear communicator and persuasive in your sales pitches. You are extremely motivated to succeed and are inspired to work in education.
