This is a fast-paced and exciting sales role, and you will be tasked with growing new business and achieving sales quotas/daily activity goals. This role is fully remote, so candidates can be based anywhere in the US.

A day in the office looks like this:
• Securing new and repeat business by building strong relationships with key customers and stakeholders via virtual appointments and outbound phone calls
• Partnering with schools and childcare centers on a regular basis to assess emerging and ongoing needs
• Hosting virtual product presentations designed to familiarize customers with proprietary services (Complete Classrooms®, professional development, custom solutions, and more)
• Conducting online research to gather information pertaining to local, state and national trends and funding opportunities in early learning and elementary education
• Working with department leadership to form and modify sales strategies
• Partnering with outside sales, retail and our professional services group to support the needs of educators
• Identifying sales leads and collaborating with various members of the sales force to support the market
• Participating in weekly meetings with your team to discuss department initiatives and strategies
• Assisting team on special projects such as partnering with the outside sales force and participating in national and/or state campaigns

• Bachelor’s degree
• Hands-on classroom (K-5th) teaching experience and/or experience selling in the elementary school market is desirable
• Background in inside sales, outside sales, and/or retail is a plus
• Strong work ethic, team player mentality, and ability to perform outstanding work from home
• Experience with making outbound sales calls is a huge plus
• Solid presentation skills and ability to speak to customer needs at all levels (teachers, administrators, directors)
• Highly coachable with an eagerness to learn and accept feedback
• Goal oriented, self-motivated with a personal desire to succeed
• Experience with Salesforce is a plus
• Proficiency with Microsoft Office (Word, Outlook, Excel) preferred
• Top-notch written and verbal communication skills
• Excellent administrative and organizational skills
• Great attention to detail

Additional Information

And here’s our end of the bargain!
• Hourly: $28-$32 base, plus incentive
• Excellent medical/dental and vision coverage—EPO, PPO and HSA
• 401(k) retirement plan with company contribution (because you will retire someday)
• Flexible benefits—choose what you like, ignore the rest
• Generous employee discount on products that make you smarter

At Lakeshore, we know our diversity makes us stronger, and when everyone feels included and valued, we all win. We strive to embrace our differences and create an intentionally diverse and inclusive community that is representative of the teachers, families and children we serve.
