Being an Account Executive at Avrios
The ideal Account Executive is a hungry, perseverant and focused native German speaker who can consult any company on their mobility strategy, our software, and will go the extra mile to close the deal.Responsibilities
- Execute the sales process from demo to signed contract
- Close new business consistently at or above target level
- Engage with customers and analyse their needs to understand how mobility drives their business
- Develop a sound business case and get all stakeholders on board to help our customers improve their mobility strategy using the latest technology
- Work closely together with Customer Success to make sure your customer is properly onboarded and can successfully implement their strategy
A day in the life of an Account Executive:
Start the day with a coffee and stand-up meeting, discussing daily and weekly goals with my team. It's always good to verbalise the plan for the day. The first call of the day is imminent. A potential customer is having issues with their current mobility strategy. You analyse their pains and formulate a new strategy for them to turn their fleet into a driver of business instead of just a cost. Our software can definitely play a big part in the solution you have in mind. You schedule a follow-up call to present your solution to them and all the related stakeholders. The phone rings, it’s Mrs X., she tells you the board has discussed your business case, they love the solution you proposed and enthusiastically sign the offer. You update Salesforce and receive emoji love from the whole team!
Customer success has just informed you that the data of a new customer (which you closed!) needed only a few alterations and will soon be on boarded. Perfect, another customer ready to use the platform! Next up, a quick lunch with the prospecting team to discuss improvements to the current lead generation strategy.
