• Consistently meet or exceed new business acquisition and revenue targets. 

• Maintain accurate CRM documentation, pipeline forecasting, and sales reporting. 

• Contribute insights to enhance the go-to-market strategy for emerging growth prospects.

• Strong consultative selling and communication skills. 

• Experience with lead qualification, needs assessment, and closing strategies.
