Account Executive
Exceeding quota means making real, human connections. But you know that. It’s what you do. You see your prospects as people (not numbers), and you’ve got a knack for seeding new relationships and then nurturing them. In fact, your clients text you on a regular basis.
At Strivacity we've got our eye on simplifying the customer sign-in journey. And it starts with you. Our customers want to create great online experiences, and that begins when you understand their challenges and explain how our product can solve them. Our promise to them: our product gives you a canvas to craft lightweight experiences that wow. We don't use jargon, replay tired phrases to describe ourselves. We want our customers to not only love our product but feel good about how they get treated during every interaction with us.
We're a breath of fresh air in a customer identity and access management (CIAM) market that's confusing and plagued with months- or years-long rollouts. Even if the timing isn't right, we know there’s a good chance folks will be a customer six or 12 months down the road.
You lead by listening and your enthusiasm, confidence, and positive mindset shine through in every interaction. When it comes to finalizing “the deal” you’ve got mad negotiation skills that leave everyone feeling like they’ve won. But you don’t stop there because you really care about your customers’ success. You stick by each new client all the way through onboarding and beyond.
