Description
Sales / Account Manager Position:

Responsibilities:
The Boston Account Manager position requires someone with the ability to “hunt” down new accounts and contacts. Initially the job requires one to make large quantities of cold calls daily. The Boston office has many large accounts available that need a great deal attention in order to yield sales. The right candidate is going to have a, “never give up attitude.” This role requires a confident individual that understands breaking an account and building relationships is hard work, and by no means happens over night.
The life cycle of this job starts with a great deal of time spent on the phone. The first challenge will be getting live phone hits. The second challenge getting a meeting and introducing yourself and Sapphire in a professional and comprehensive manner. As your accounts develop more time will be spent maintaining the accounts, building relationships and less time making calls. This takes time, determination, and personal sacrifice. This is by no means a 9-5 job!

-
