Ready to build something big?
We are seeking a "don't hold me back" consultative sales professional who is in the early stage of his or her sales career development and looking to take that next big step into a boundless environment to maximize their potential.
We want people that are creative and independent - folks who solve problems they haven't even been asked to solve. At Venga, you're expected to speak up and be heard, pitch in wherever and whenever needed. We work hard to accomplish great things and play hard to celebrate our success. And in return, you'll have the most rewarding work experience of your life.
Role:
The successful candidate for this role will help us rapidly grow the client base for our Venga Move Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) offering. You will work closely with our sales and company leadership to win new fitness clients, increase revenues and fuel company growth.
If you are successful in achieving your immediate goals, you will have limitless opportunities to advance your sales career, grow within a highly successful company and help drive the company into new markets (new territories as well as new industries/verticals).
The individual we're looking for will identify with the following:
- Your sales approach is grounded in a client-first style, focusing on their needs. The cloud-based services we offer are how we deliver great value, but the resulting impact is what dramatically changes our clients' lives and businesses for the better. You understand, distinguish and communicate the difference between selling what we do (client impact) versus how we do it (software as a service).
- Fluency with SaaS business models is a must, as you will be selling a cloud-based offering, demonstrating and evangelizing our proprietary software, as well as providing important feedback to our product development team.
- You will have the ability to develop trust and confidence with key decision makers - from Owners/CEOs of Global Franchises to their heads of operations and marketing teams.
- You love working in a startup-like environment. (If you thrive in big corporate environments with lots of pre-defined processes and bureaucracy, keep looking).
Requirements
2-4 years of experience:
- As a day-one difference-maker you will have started your sales career, to include working with both warm and cold leads, managing a balanced pipeline and closing new business.
- You will have sold products/services into fitness studios or gyms previously and have existing decision-making contacts across the breadth of the fitness sector - from multi-site operators to boutique studios.
- You thrive when selling through multiple channels (phone, social, email and remote online demos)
- You have and can demonstrate meticulous, personable and persuasive writing skills
- You have a conversational and engaging phone manner, it's critical to building trust and establishing credibility with prospects.
"Nice-to-Haves":
- Fitness Technology or adjacent tech sales experience (HR Tools, Studio management, Online reservations, etc.)
- Knowledge of data-driven digital marketing, including audience segmentation, targeted marketing and email marketing campaigns.
- Familiarity with data analysis tools and pivot tables.
- Experience with using a CRM (i.e Copper/Salesforce), Sales Automation Tools, LinkedIn Sales Navigator
