- Support the business at industry events and trade shows: deliver product demonstrations for event audiences, engage prospects and clients on-site with relevant use cases, and document leads and follow-up actions promptly after each event.
Asset development and enablement
- Develop and maintain reusable pre-sales materials: demo scripts, solution blueprints, proposal modules, competitive battle cards and ROI templates.
- Stay current on product updates, competitive landscape and industry trends; share insights with the broader sales team.
- Contribute to the onboarding of new team members on product and solution knowledge.
Collaboration and reporting
