Sales Executive at wePlace

About our Sales Team

Our sales team assists in building the company’s business by identifying prospective clients, demonstrating our software’s capabilities to potential clients and then converting them to paying clients. Each sales team member acts as a relationship manager by maintaining current client relationships and developing relationships with new clients. When new clients have been converted, each member is required to train the client in the use of the software. As we encourage our staff to grow and develop their skills, we require that our sales staff consistently work on sharpening and improving their skills, be it through practice, reading or by attending classes, workshops or seminars
