Create relevant and impactful content in email correspondence with decision-makers in prospect organizations.
Deliver Rapid7 portfolio value proposition with prospect companies providing them a consultative approach: speaking to their problems and how Rapid7's products, services, and research strategy might help them solve their challenges.
Act as the expert in your territory understanding key players, opportunities, market trends, and challenges.
Manage sales funnel until the opportunity is passed on to Account Executive.
Collaborate with Account Executives to determine strategies for account penetration plans by providing key insights into areas of development and potential roadblocks.
The skills you'll bring may include:
Ability to utilize consistent and persistent contact and follow up attempts through phone, email, LinkedIn for cold and warm leads generated through marketing campaigns.
Background creating content needed to pursue opportunities.
Sales experience or professional selling education is a plus.
Passionate about delighting customers with previous experience working in a customer facing environment either over the phone or face to face.
