- Work independently to manage time, priorities, and customer communications, balancing long-term relationship-building with short-term goals.
- Identify opportunities for continuous improvement in sales tools, collateral, and CRM workflows.
- Stay current on industry trends, market feedback, and competitor offerings to shape how we engage prospective customers.
- Read hearing tests and obtain hearing tests for orders and account management.
What We Are Looking For
- 2+ years of strategic sales, or consultative customer-facing experience.
- Proven ability to work independently and exercise sound judgment in complex or ambiguous situations.
- Strong analytical skills—you’re comfortable using data to refine and improve your performance.
- Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with an ability to influence decision-makers.
- Entrepreneurial mindset with a track record of identifying opportunities for improvement and taking initiative to act on them.
- Highly organized, self-motivated, and mission-aligned.
