About the role
The Role
As a New Business Executive, you will own the full sales lifecycle for Mid-Market and Enterprise school districts with enrollment of 3,000 or more students within the assigned territory. You will create and close strategic new business by identifying high-potential accounts, developing account strategies, creating demand, building executive relationships, and navigating complex buying environments.
What You'll Do
- Own your territory through strategic account planning, market research, account prioritization, and development of executive relationships.
- Identify and create new business opportunities within complex Mid-Market and Enterprise accounts, including opportunities where no active buying process exists.
- Lead consultative discovery to uncover business priorities, challenges, desired outcomes, decision criteria, stakeholders, budget, and timing.
- Build and execute multi-threaded account strategies across executive, technical, curriculum, safety/security, finance, and procurement stakeholders.
- Develop internal champions, identify economic buyers, and create alignment across complex buying committees.
- Build compelling business cases that connect customer challenges to measurable business impact and a clear reason to act.
- Expand opportunities beyond an initial product or use case when broader customer needs create opportunities for additional value.
- Navigate complex procurement, RFP, legal, security, contracting, funding, and decision processes.
- Strategically leverage Marketing, channel partners, events, referrals, and account insights to create executive entry points and accelerate engagement.
- Maintain a healthy, qualified pipeline and accurately forecast opportunity risk, next steps, and expected outcomes.
- Negotiate and close meaningful new business while maintaining ownership of the customer relationship and outcome.
- Work cross-functionally with Sales, Marketing, Sales Ops, Product, Support, and Customer Success to advance strategic opportunities and deliver strong customer outcomes.
- Keep CRM up to date and use data to continuously improve territory and sales performance.
Who You Are
- Proven success in a quota-carrying Mid-Market or Enterprise B2B SaaS new-business role, with 3+ years of technology sales experience.
- Demonstrated history of consistently achieving or exceeding quota, with meaningful experience personally creating and closing complex deals.
- Experience selling into complex, multi-stakeholder organizations; K-12 or government experience preferred.
- Demonstrated ability to independently create qualified pipeline through strategic prospecting and account development.
- Strong strategic account planning and opportunity-development skills, including the ability to create demand before a formal buying process exists.
- Strong discovery, consultative selling, executive communication, multi-threading, negotiation, and business-case development skills.
- Ability to understand customer business priorities and connect them to measurable outcomes and value.
- Commercial judgment and understanding of budgeting, procurement, RFPs, funding, contracting, and complex decision processes.
- Ability to build relationships with executive and senior-level stakeholders and develop champions across complex buying committees.
- Strong analytical skills and command of pipeline, opportunity risk, forecasting, and personal performance metrics.
- Highly collaborative, coachable, resilient, and committed to continuous improvement.
- Strong written and verbal communication, listening, influencing, and presentation skills.
- Willingness to embrace GoGuardian's selling methodology, processes, and culture of accountability.
