TL;DR
At Trainual, we're not just building an onboarding and training product; we're shaping how businesses empower their teams. You’ve probably noticed by now, we aren’t your ordinary SaaS startup. We operate with intentionality as we scale and our sales team is no exception. Rather than a churn-and-burn cold calling team, we take a consultative approach to our warm, marketing-generated inbound leads. Our established inbound motion is proven to drive revenue, and we're looking for our next Account Executive to accelerate this success.
So, who are you? You’re passionate and results-oriented. You thrive in fast-paced, entrepreneurial startup environments and love rolling up your sleeves to be the person to tackle problems head-on with value-matching presentations. You enjoy a lil’ friendly competition, but wouldn’t compromise the quality of a deal for a quick buck. Most importantly - you love customers, have a knack for building relationships, and a big appetite for success in your sales career. You’re on a mission to break the “used car salesperson” stereotype by helping businesses thrive through thoughtful, consultative solution selling.

What you will own & improve:

  • Revenue Generation/Acceleration - Bingo! If you haven’t guessed it yet, the primary objective of an Account Executive is to drive revenue growth by effectively leveraging our established inbound motion and to not be afraid of a lot of pivoting and testing to support company goals. This involves proactively qualifying leads, engaging with key decision-makers, and effectively articulating the value proposition of Trainual.
  • Meeting Sales Targets - Growing new business means meeting or exceeding sales targets and revenue goals. This entails effectively managing the sales pipeline, prioritizing prospects, and advancing deals through the various stages of the sales process. With strong negotiation and closing skills, you should consistently convert leads into paying customers and achieve or surpass the set sales quotas.
  • Teamwork and Collaboration - We are a collaborative bunch! You’ll be collaborating effectively with your teammates primarily within revenue driving and retention supporting positions. Whether it’s Customer Success, Marketing, or Product, you’ll be aligning to overall company objectives and working as a team.

What you already know:

  • Consultative & solution selling - Feature sellers need-not apply. You have the ability to adopt a consultative approach, listen to prospects to understand their requirements, and then, align the solution's benefits with their specific needs. You are empathetic and capable of building relationships based on trust and establishing yourself as a trusted advisor to guide customers through the buying process by means of group and individual product demonstrations.
  • Communication skills - Written and verbal communication proficiency is a non-negotiable trade as a Trainual seller. We have a unique, personable brand and we need our sellers to exemplify as such. You are succinct and a creative communicator who effectively gets to the punch line using less “fluff” and formalities. In essence, you “write like you talk”.
  • How to negotiate - This is the most fun part of the sales game! You know when to speak, what pain points to circle back to, and how to get customers to say HECK YES by the end of your interactions. You understand the importance of win-win outcomes and aim for mutually beneficial agreements. Last, but certainly not least - you have a proven ability to identify and address objections or concerns raised by prospects and skillfully overcome them through effective communication and problem-solving.
  • CRM management & technical tool knowledge - You’re data-driven and organized when using a CRM (e.g. HubSpot, Salesforce). You know how to effectively manage a deal through appropriate stages and take pride in your pristine pipeline to support forecasting analytics. You dive in quickly to familiarize yourself with systems and love adding more tools to your tool belt.

How success is measured:

  • We’re speedy and use our own product to provide you everything you need for ramping quickly. You’re up to full productivity within 2-3 weeks of your start date and already beginning to take 1:1 calls with prospects.
  • After 3 months, you’ll be selling toward a fully ramped MRR quota, but you’re not even sweating it because you’re already killin’ it by month 2. *PSA: This is a volume-based position, so expect to sell about 5 deals/week.
  • You’re already feeling into a complete sales rhythm by month 6 - you can navigate answers to questions through the right resources and communication channels, and you’re on path to start hitting consistency bonuses because you take feedback and implement it like a boss.
About the Team:
You’ll be reporting directly to our Sales Manager, Ryan Burhans, and working closely with your fellow established Account Executives.
Compensation:
This is a level 2 role with a base salary of $63k and uncapped OTE $105k. Leveling and associated compensation will be determined by relevant experience to the role, industry, and selling ability.

About Trainual

Learn more about Trainual and their company culture.

View company profile

Trainual is a team of 100+ super-talented folks obsessed with making small business easier. And while our team members come with diverse experiences, we’re united by our passion for making ideas happen. We launched the world’s first playbook tool in 2018, and today, thousands of companies in nearly every industry use it to scale their teams.

Why Trainual?

We’re a great place to work. AZCentral named Trainual the #1 place to work in Arizona. And Inc recognized us on their 2021, 2022, and 2023 Best Workplaces list. But we can’t say we blame them. We’re a hybrid team with an unwavering culture that recognizes everyone’s impact matters.

We’ve got benefits on benefits. Above market pay, an annual experience fund, 4 weeks paid vacation (plus 5 sick days), the latest tech, parental leave, 401k matching, free One Medical subscription, and top-notch health care - just to name a few.

We’re disrupting the SMB industry. Our goal is to equip every team with a winning playbook. One that provides clarity around who does what and how. And with 7k small businesses scaling what they do with Trainual, we’re only scratching the surface.

We’re in good company. In June 2021, we closed a $27M Series B round. And we partner with some of the biggest names in small business, including Shark Tank star Daymond John, Slack, Loom, the cast of The Office, and more.

We all own what we’re building. Everyone who works at Trainual has life-changing pre-IPO equity. That way, you can be proud of what we’re building and sleep well knowing your teammates are (literally) just as invested as you are.

Our values

  • Show Up Ready: Plan enough to pull it off, and pivot if needed. For our customers and our co-workers, we embody preparation and order. We work from an agenda. We start and end meetings on time. We put in the effort to polish what we present, all in an effort to build trust with those around us. When a company hires Trainual, they expect an experience that feels simple. The appearance of simplicity requires tremendous planning and preparation, so this characteristic has to be a core trait of everyone that works here.

  • Make Ideas Happen: Execute on what you innovate. We don’t just tolerate change, and go along for the ride; we drive change. Companies are like cruise ships, and turning them can take some time. But turning the wheel happens in just a few seconds. It’s the decision to redirect, and to make something different. It’s the vantage point at the front of the boat where you can see where you’re heading, before anyone else knows. We are the ones to initiate this change. It’s up to us to have the vision, to always look forward, and to spot obstacles and opportunities before they become issues.

  • Carry the Groceries: Carry extra weight without being asked. Go above and beyond whenever you sense a need. Look for opportunities to impress, and be ready to roll your sleeves up to make someone else’s life a little easier. It’s what we do. "Before starting my first business, I bagged groceries at a supermarket in Massachusetts. No one ever expected me to carry the groceries to the car, but when I did, it made their day. It’s such a simple thing, and took only an extra minute of my time, but it made a tremendous difference in that customer’s experience at the store. At Trainual, be helpful everywhere possible." - Chris Ronzio, CEO

  • No Red Tape: Work hard to make every process easy. There is nothing more frustrating than a bureaucratic process, and you won’t find one here. Never make customers or coworkers jump through hoops. Don’t let policy supersede logic. You’ll never go wrong making things easier on others, so challenge every system that could have fewer steps, more automation, and less complexity.

  • Collect Experiences: Have endless curiosity for a new perspective and knowledge. We work with people in all different industries, from all different walks of life. In order to build trust, understand the real picture, and help create change, we need to build real relationships. Listen to others, and relate to them. Be an experience collector, so that you have an endless supply of topics that can be used to find common ground.

  • Everyone has a Key: In results we trust. You'll notice from your first day that every employee at Trainual literally has a key to the office. We trust you, or we wouldn't have hired you. Some people say trust is earned, but we believe that trust is the default. Everyone carries their weight, and everyone is an owner of what we are building. We won't tell you exactly how to get the job done -- you won't find micromanagement here. So, remember that your productivity is measured by your impact and your effort.
