Warner Communications · Trenton, IL · 8 mo ago
Business DevelopmentFull-time

About the role

Warner Communications has served Southern Illinois for over 60 years. We're a family-owned company — three generations deep — and we're not going anywhere. Les Zucker helped build this company with a simple philosophy: do good work, treat people right, and take care of your customers. Our president Steve Guller still lives by it: "Our reputation was built one handshake at a handshake."

What You'll Work With

  • AI-powered gun detection for schools
  • Satellite comms that work when the grid goes down
  • In-building cellular systems & access control
  • Two-way radios first responders stake their lives on
  • IP video surveillance systems
  • Fleet tracking
  • More — selling to businesses, schools, hospitals, and government agencies across Southern Illinois.

What You'll Do

  • Create new sales opportunities among businesses and government clients
  • Prepare and conduct sales presentations, product demonstrations, and proposals
  • Build positive relationships with prospects, clients, and referral sources
  • Support existing accounts while developing new ones
  • Multiply quotas by converting prospects into clients

Who Thrives Here

  • You don't need sales experience — we'll train you.
  • We can't teach you character.
  • You might be right for this role if you:
    • Build trust naturally — and follow through
    • Want to learn a real trade, not just collect a check
    • Have roots in the Metro East and take pride in the community
    • Are comfortable with technology (or eager to learn)
    • Genuinely enjoy helping people solve problems
