• Develop and execute a strategic territory plan that consistently creates new pipeline.

\n

• Maintain accurate pipeline, activity, next steps, and forecasts in the CRM.

\n

\n

Discovery, Demos & Relationship Building

\n

• Lead discovery with municipalities, utilities, courts, and other government agencies to understand their needs, priorities, budgets, stakeholders, and buying process.

\n

• Build relationships with government leaders and stakeholders across finance, administration, IT, procurement, utility operations, courts, and other departments.

\n

• Attend industry conferences, association meetings, and other events to build relationships and generate opportunities.

\n

Proposals, Procurement & Close

\n

• Develop proposals, navigate procurement requirements and RFPs, negotiate agreements, and drive opportunities to close.

\n

• Navigate longer and more complex public-sector sales cycles, including budget processes, competitive evaluations, council or board approvals, and procurement requirements.

\n

\n

Cross-Functional Collaboration

\n

• Collaborate with Marketing, Implementation, Customer Support, and leadership throughout the customer journey.

\n

• Bring market and competitive intelligence back to the organization to help improve our products and go-to-market strategy.

• Experience selling SaaS, payments, fintech, or a combination of these solutions.

• Disciplined CRM and forecasting habits.

\n
