  4. Skillfully address customer objections - removing obstacles - and finding solutions to various client challenges
  5. Lead the sales process naturally - guiding it to a close by effectively showcasing Parseport's value proposition of 'XBRL made simple'
  6. Regularly and promptly update customer relationship management tools to report customer contacts being part of a regional sales team
  7. Provide consistent and accurate forward-looking information through pipeline analysis to forecast sales
  8. Develop and execute a sales strategy with purposeful action to secure the sale
  9. Rally internal support to pursue an account and optimize internal resources
  10. Prioritize selling activities and ensure timely follow-through
  11. Maintain a strong understanding of the Parseport XBRL solutions through a commitment to ongoing training and a growth mindset

  2. Experience in partners/channel sales or working directly with partners and resellers

  5. Strong business acumen and an ability to understand complex business challenges
  6. Executive presence and an ability to communicate at the most senior level
  7. Ability to identify and understand the power of influencers versus buyers and how to navigate the nuances of each during the sales cycle
  8. Ability to manage multiple complex sales cycles simultaneously
  9. Ability to negotiate pricing with a focus on retaining value
  10. Ability to move between simple transactional deals and highly complex procurement driven sales processes
  11. Capability for achieving (and exceeding) sales quota targets
