THE ROLE

As a Sales Development Representative, you will be an integral part of our internal sales team in prospecting and converting leads into discovery calls. Your calls will capitalize on the earliest opportunity to build rapport, understand the customer's needs, and earn trust through open ended conversations. 

Your target clients will be enterprise level call center accounts who have over 1M in spend per annum in staffing services across multiple locations. Thus, you will play an important part in implementing a sophisticated sales strategy to introduce, engage, and ultimately connect with large, corporate accounts. You will make anywhere from 20-50 calls a day to reach a decision maker at a call center or similar company. 

THE TEAM

Balance was founded in the 90's with the idea that there needs to be more 'balance' in the staffing industry.

Every discovery call appointment booked by you = $25-$100

Every contract signed as a result of a discovery call you booked = $100-$1,000

GROWTH

This is a Level 1 role within the sales team. This means there are four additional levels to grow into after Level 1.
