VISIONSPARK

SALES CONSULTANT / CLIENT STRATEGIST

THE PERSON

Do you have the business acumen to earn the trust of CEOs, the curiosity to uncover what's really holding businesses back, and the confidence to guide leaders through important decisions? If earning trust and serving executives matters more to you than simply making a sale, we'd love to talk with you.

At VisionSpark, sales is about far more than closing business. We don't pressure people into decisions; we help them make the right decision. You're competitive and motivated to win, but your greatest satisfaction comes from helping business owners solve important challenges while building lasting relationships founded on trust and integrity.

Our ideal Sales Consultant / Client Strategist is:

• Relationship-oriented, empathetic, and emotionally intelligent, building trust by genuinely understanding each client's unique situation and adapting your approach accordingly
• Consultative, curious, and growth-minded, continually seeking to understand, learn, and improve
• Confident and professional when working directly with business owners and executive leaders
• Competitive and resilient, motivated to create new business opportunities while embracing the realities of sales
• Adaptable and process-oriented, balancing a proven methodology with the flexibility to meet each client's unique needs
• Concise, articulate, and persuasive in written and verbal communication
• Accountable and committed to serving others with integrity

• Serve as a trusted advisor to business owners and executive leaders, helping them identify leadership challenges and determine whether VisionSpark is the right partner for their hiring needs.
• Generate new business through proactive prospecting, strategic networking, referral partnerships, and long-term relationship development.

• Consistently achieve individual sales goals while representing VisionSpark with professionalism, integrity, and a service-first mindset.
