About the Role:

Our client is seeking an Inside Sales Representative (ISR) to manage the end-to-end sales process remotely — from prospecting and qualifying leads to running demos and closing deals. This role requires strong communication, relationship-building, and pipeline management skills. The ISR is responsible for achieving revenue targets while maintaining a consultative, solutions-focused sales approach.

Responsibilities:

Lead Management & Qualification:

    • Respond to inbound leads from marketing campaigns, websites, and referrals.
    • Proactively prospect outbound leads via email, phone, and LinkedIn.
    • Qualify opportunities using frameworks such as BANT, SPIN, or MEDDIC.

Sales Process Execution:

    • Conduct discovery calls and virtual demos with decision-makers.
    • Present value propositions tailored to prospect needs and industry.
    • Handle objections and build trust with stakeholders.
    • Negotiate pricing and terms within approved guidelines.

Pipeline Management:

    • Maintain accurate records in CRM (Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho).
    • Track opportunities through each sales stage, ensuring follow-ups are timely.
    • Update forecasts and report on progress toward quota.

Collaboration:

    • Work closely with marketing to provide feedback on lead quality and campaign results.
    • Partner with sales engineers or solutions consultants for technical demos when required.
    • Collaborate with account managers to ensure smooth handoff of closed accounts.

Continuous Improvement:

    • Stay updated on product features, competitor offerings, and market trends.
    • Refine sales pitches and discovery questions based on client interactions.

What Makes You a Perfect Fit:

  • Confident, persuasive communicator with strong listening skills.
  • Comfortable running full-cycle remote sales (prospecting → qualification → close).
  • Resilient and goal-oriented, with a track record of hitting or exceeding quota.
  • Consultative approach — balancing persistence with professionalism.

Required Experience & Skills (Minimum):

  • 2+ years inside sales or business development experience.
  • Familiarity with CRMs (Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho) and sales engagement tools (Outreach, SalesLoft).
  • Proven track record of meeting sales quotas.
  • Strong written, verbal, and virtual presentation skills.

Ideal Experience & Skills:

  • Experience selling SaaS, marketing services, or professional services.
  • Exposure to SMB or mid-market sales cycles (average deal size $5k–$50k).
  • Familiarity with Challenger, SPIN, or MEDDIC sales methodologies.
  • Background in consultative, solution-based selling.

What Does a Typical Day Look Like?

An Inside Sales Rep’s day revolves around managing pipelines and closing deals remotely. You will:

  • Start the day reviewing your pipeline, following up with open opportunities.
  • Make outbound calls and emails, responding to inbound inquiries quickly.
  • Run discovery calls and virtual demos, tailoring presentations to prospect needs.
  • Update CRM records with notes, opportunity stage, and next steps.
  • Collaborate with marketing and sales leadership on pipeline strategy and feedback.
  • End the day reviewing metrics, preparing forecasts, and planning tomorrow’s outreach.

In essence: you are responsible for driving revenue remotely by converting leads into customers through a structured, consultative sales process.

  • Quota attainment (monthly/quarterly revenue).
  • Conversion rate from lead → opportunity → closed deal.
  • Number of discovery calls and demos completed.
