What we’re looking for

We’re searching for a bright, energetic and motivated Sales Development Representative (SDR) to join our team. As an SDR, you will be responsible for generating and qualifying new leads and booking qualified meetings for our Account Executives.

 

To be successful in this role, you should have experience in developing and nurturing your own sales funnel.

This is a unique opportunity for any rep with 1-3 years of SaaS/Software experience to join a fast growing company that has some of the brightest talent in the DC tech scene. After 12-18 months of demonstrated success in this role, you will have the opportunity to move into an account executive position where you will be conducting meetings, product demos, and ultimately close business. Other potential career opportunities include moving into an SDR Manager position or Account Management role.

Set Meetings - Your primary prospecting objective is to set qualified meetings for account executives. You will have a monthly and quarterly for meetings set, show rate and qualified rate.

 

Engage with Website Traffic - We use drift as a way to provided automated engagement to website visitors but we also rely on sales to help engage with target accounts who come to site.

Communicate value - The most successful reps will be those who quickly become well versed in both the market and the Fugue product. Learn the technology enough to be able to articulate the features, benefits and most importantly the value to your prospects.

 

Refine process - Measure performance, determine what’s working and what isn’t, and help to refine our current sales process. You will provide feedback to the sales team and marketing team to help ensure we’re reaching the right people at the right organizations. You’ll also work closely with the account executives and VP of Sales to improve processes and quality of meetings.

 

Fugue is a fast growing team that will give you direct access to the CEO, Director and VP of Sales as well as our VP of Product. We want someone with a track record of successfully setting meetings and building pipelines to help us build the team of SDRs quickly over the next two years.
