Location: Denver, CO (In-office 3 days/week)
Compensation: $85,000 – $110,000 base + uncapped commission
Description:
If you are an A-Player who views a sales quota as a floor - not a ceiling, Accelo & Forecast wants to talk to you. We’re looking for high-octane, accomplished new business hunters to join our team in Denver. We don't just sell software; we deliver transformational change to professional service firms, digital agencies, engineers, and consultants by increasing their profitability through total operational visibility.
As an Account Executive, you aren't just managing leads; you are the architect of your own success. You will own the full sales cycle from cold outreach to the final contract using a consultative approach to bridge the gap between where a business is and where it needs to be.
What You’ll Do:
- Aggressive Pipeline Generation: Take full ownership of your territory by cold calling, emailing, and executing strategic outreach to identify and close new enterprise-level business.
- Gap Discovery: Engage executive-level buyers to dismantle the status quo. You will uncover the hidden costs of their current "pain" and articulate the financial impact of inaction.
- Value Orchestration: Build high-value cases for Accelo by matching our platform’s features from quote to cash directly to the business goals you’ve uncovered.
- Disciplined Closing: Manage a high-quality, high-velocity sales process while maintaining meticulous records in our CRM to ensure your forecast is always accurate and your pipeline is primed for growth.
What You Bring:
- The Hunter Mindset: 3-5+ years of successful sales experience (ideally SaaS), with a proven track record of crushing targets and a hunger for outbound prospecting.
- Consultative approach: Expert-level communication and presentation skills, with the ability to "put yourself in the shoes" of a business owner to solve their most complex operational problems.
- Technical Command: You are confident running high-impact demos, alongside your Solutions Consultant, that "wow" prospects and demonstrate exactly how Accelo will revolutionize their project management and service delivery.
- Autonomy & Drive: Highly motivated and capable of working all phases of the funnel with total independence and professional empathy.
Preferred Qualifications:
- Experience: 3-5 years of successful sales experience, preferably in a SaaS or technology-focused environment. Outbound sales experience; the ability to self-generate leads through various strategies to supplement the sales pipeline.
Proven track record of meeting or exceeding sales targets. - Skills: Strong consultative selling skills with the ability to understand and address client needs. Excellent communication, presentation, and negotiation skills.
- Knowledge: Familiarity with CRM / Project Management / PSA tools. Understanding of project management, service delivery, and business operations is a plus.
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Business, Marketing, or a related field. Relevant certifications or additional training in sales methodologies are advantageous.
- Attributes: Highly motivated, self-driven, and able to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment. Strong problem-solving abilities and a proactive approach to overcoming challenges.
What We Offer:
- Competitive salary and commission structure
- Comprehensive benefits package, including medical, dental and vision coverage
