Role Overview We are seeking a driven Sales Representative (Mid-Level) to spearhead new business sales of our Salesforce Managed Services and consulting solutions. This is a remote, contract role ideal for a self-motivated “hunter” who thrives on uncapped earnings. You will work remotely and focus on acquiring new customers and reaching $50K–$75K in new monthly business. The ideal candidate has experience selling technology services or SaaS solutions, and is knowledgeable about the Salesforce ecosystem. You’ll play a pivotal role in our growth by closing deals that help clients get ongoing value from their Salesforce investments. Key Responsibilities • New Business Development Prospect and identify potential clients in the SMB and mid-market segment who could benefit from Salesforce managed services.

Position KeyNode’s Salesforce support and consulting services as tailored solutions to solve those pain points.

Coordinate pre-sales technical scoping or estimations with consultants so that proposals are accurate and compelling. After closing, ensure a smooth handoff to the delivery team and remain available for client relationship management as needed. • Market Intelligence Stay up-to-date on Salesforce product updates and the broader SaaS/CRM market. Understand competitor offerings in the Salesforce consulting space. Use this knowledge to differentiate KeyNode Solutions in conversations with prospects. • Reporting Attend regular sales meetings via video conference.

Use KPIs to assess your progress (e.g. number of new leads, calls, proposals out, closes) and proactively adjust your approach to hit targets.
