International Sports Management (ISM) is the global leader in upscale corporate hospitality and ticketing programs at major sporting events like the Kentucky Derby, Masters, Super Bowl, and many more. We are where we are by putting our customers and our amazing team first. The values we live by at ISM are: GENUINE, RESPECT, INTEGRITY, TEAMWORK, and TENACITY.
You will initially be responsible for new business development. This starts with “cold” calling (this simply means you haven’t spoken to someone before – it’s how many of the biggest companies in the world bring on new clients!) but we teach you how to “warm” the call using your personality and communication skills very quickly. Promotions come from withing and available for successful candidates. This is not a “telemarketing” nor a “customer service” position; job seekers searching for a role in those capacities won’t find this a match.
If you love challenges, are motivated by the hunt for new business, want to make great money and advance your career, but aren’t afraid of hard work, or failure, then we want to meet you! Remember, your background helps define where you are, but where you want to go and having the initiative to get there is most important!
You will:
- Learn how to go to market calling executives throughout corporate America
- Deliver our value proposition clearly and with enthusiasm
- Drive sales activities including proactive outreach to prospects, develop qualified leads, set meetings, maintain your sales CRM
- Have the opportunity to make great money AND travel to select world class sports events
We provide:
- Comprehensive training
- Ongoing mentoring
- Base salary + commission + bonus, uncapped
- Bonuses, both cash & prize (monthly, quarterly & annually)
- Bike room, on-site gym, locker facilities
- Company medical/dental plans and 401K enrollment
- PTO and major holidays off (4 weeks paid time off each calendar year)
- First year average range of $55K-$75K+ (range includes base + commission); Year two $80K+
- Growth opportunities into Sales Management / National Accounts
- Great corporate culture and community volunteerism
What you’ll bring:
- Outstanding verbal and written communication skills
- (Some) Sales experience (B2B preferred, not just customer service)
- A.A., B.A., or B.S. degree or related experience
- Excellent problem-solving skills
- High motivation to succeed and growth minded / promotion oriented
We look forward to speaking with you soon!
