  • Partner with Accounting, Delivery, Operations, Merchandising, and other teams to resolve issues and improve customer experience.
  • Share field feedback, customer insights, sales trends, and operational challenges with leadership.
  • Develop and execute prospecting strategies to increase new customer acquisition.
  • Ensure Outside Sales representatives maintain healthy prospect pipelines and activity levels.
  • Monitor lead conversion rates through each stage of the sales funnel.
