Sales Development Representative

About the Role

Sellmark Corporation develops, markets, and supports innovative brands and products serving outdoor, sporting, professional, commercial, government, and emerging technology markets. Our foundation is in hunting, shooting, outdoor recreation, optics, thermal imaging, illumination, and related technologies. Our future includes expanding into new brands, product categories, markets, and technologies where our capabilities in product development, electronics, imaging, sensing, and innovation can create value.

We are looking for people who want to build a career, continually develop their capabilities, take on greater responsibility, earn more through greater performance, and grow with Sellmark as the company enters new markets and technologies.

This is a proactive sales position, not primarily an order-taking or customer-service role. New representatives begin by learning and demonstrating the fundamentals of professional selling before becoming eligible for larger accounts, customer travel, trade shows, territory assignments, specialized brands, or new business opportunities.

Responsibilities

• Prospecting and developing new customers
• Growing assigned accounts
• Qualifying sales opportunities
• Generating profitable revenue
• Maintaining an active sales pipeline
• Building productive customer relationships
• Developing strong product and market knowledge
• Maintaining accurate CRM information
• Providing useful market and competitive intelligence
• Demonstrating readiness for increased sales responsibility

Representatives are expected to consistently contact customers and prospects, identify opportunities, follow up, ask for business, develop relationships, and convert productive effort into measurable business results.

Requirements

• Entry-level opportunity; prior professional sales experience is not required
• Achievement-driven, self-motivated, and comfortable working toward measurable sales goals
• Confident initiating conversations, asking for business, and developing professional relationships with new and existing customers
• Persistent and resilient, with the discipline to consistently follow up and move opportunities forward
• Curious and customer-focused, with an interest in understanding customers’ businesses, needs, and opportunities
• Strong verbal and written communication skills with a professional and positive approach
• Organized, coachable, and able to learn technical product information quickly
• Comfortable using CRM systems, data, research, and technology to manage sales activity and identify opportunities
• Driven to continually learn, improve, and take on greater responsibility while building a long-term career in sales

Experience in hunting, shooting, optics, outdoor recreation, or related markets is helpful but not required.

Schedule
