Market Development Specialist - Military Veterans
at Spectrum
Are you an outgoing professional who thrives when working independently? Do you enjoy getting out of the office and connecting with customers where they are? Ready for a financially rewarding job that can lead to real career opportunities?
Spectrum is building a NEW residential outside sales team—one that will drive impact for our business, customers and everyone who joins us. If you’re looking for an exciting sales career and a company that invests in you, become a Market Development Specialist.
BE PART OF THE CONNECTION
When new residential housing developments and communities are being built, new people move into new homes. All they can think about is getting unpacked and feeling settled. They also want to quickly reconnect to the Internet, their favorite shows, and with family and friends. This is where our new Market Development Specialists play a vital role.
WHAT YOU WILL DO AS A MARKET DEVELOPMENT SPECIALIST
- Acquire new customers through door-to-door relationship building and community events
- Focus on new and existing communities within targeted growth markets
- Build a vast network of referral partners to help quickly engage prospective customers
- Develop relationships with homebuilders, homeowner associations and housing community groups within an assigned territory
- Sell Spectrum’s superior products at an exceptional value to customers
- Be rewarded for achieving sales goals in Internet, mobile, phone and video sales
- Connect with your team by participating in sales meetings and training
While working in residential sales, expect to work outdoors rain or shine, days and nights, and to knock on many doors before closing a sale. It’s hard work, but with your relationship-building skills and professional resilience, you can excel (and do well financially) in this sales position.
