Skylink Group is seeking a high-energy, results-oriented Sales Representative to join our expanding team. Reporting directly to the Sales Manager, you will be the boots-on-the-ground force driving our presence in the Dealer, Retail, and Big Box markets.
We need a professional who understands the hardware manufacturing landscape and can leverage that knowledge to open doors, close deals, and displace competitors.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
As a Sales Representative, you will be responsible for the full sales lifecycle—from refining high-level strategy to closing individual accounts:
- Define target market segments and aggressively generate new leads through both outbound (cold calling/site visits) and inbound activities to sign on new customers.
- Assist the Sales Manager in refining the company’s sales and marketing plans to ensure maximum territory penetration.
- Plan, direct, and evaluate advertising and marketing campaigns specifically designed to promote products within the hardware and garage door sectors.
- Initiate and analyze market research studies to identify competitor trends, pricing shifts, and new growth opportunities in the North American market.
- Maintain and grow relationships with our existing customer base, ensuring high satisfaction while identifying "up-sell" opportunities for new product lines.
- Manage the end-to-end sales process for existing accounts, ensuring orders are accurate, processed timely, and aligned with client needs
