About the Company

Our client is a fast-growing company in the promotional products and corporate merchandise space, providing customized branded goods to businesses and individuals. They operate in a high-volume, relationship-driven sales environment, serving both small clients and large enterprise organizations. The company is scaling rapidly and has built a strong foundation of inbound demand, repeat buyers, and untapped accounts ready for re-engagement.

Role Overview

The Account Executive will be responsible for converting warm leads and reactivating dormant accounts into consistent revenue streams. This role exists to capture significant untapped sales opportunities from an existing pipeline of inbound demand and past customers.

You will manage a large book of business, own the full sales cycle, and proactively pitch creative product solutions to clients who may not yet know what they need. The role is highly execution-focused, requiring strong organization, attention to detail, and consistent follow-through.

This is a fast-paced, performance-driven environment best suited for candidates who are motivated by commission, thrive on volume, and take full ownership of their pipeline and results.

Your Impact:

You will directly contribute to revenue growth by converting existing demand into closed deals and long-term client relationships. Your ability to consistently follow up, manage accounts, and introduce new product ideas will drive repeat purchases and client retention.

Success in this role means increasing conversion rates, reactivating dormant accounts, and expanding account value through upselling and cross-selling. You will play a key role in improving sales efficiency, maintaining pipeline visibility, and contributing to overall business growth.
