Sales and marketing professionals close as many deals as possible within a stipulated amount of time. More often than not, this means heading out, meeting as many potential clients as one can, and being physically present on the field to make a sales pitch. This very old-school traditional form of marketing is widely known as ‘outside sales.’
Modern-day marketing introduces a more cost-effective method of selling called ‘inside sales.’ This strategy is the sale of products or services by a sales professional through phone, email or the internet. In simple words, inside sales can be best described as an act of identifying, nurturing and converting potential leads into customers remotely or from within an office-based environment.
How to on-board a new marketing hire
Marketing Eye Atlanta is looking for a new hire as a Marketing Executive; someone who has a few years experience, but not too much that they are stuck in their ways. We are seeking a person who fits our fun, innovative and clever culture, while still being academic and tactical enough to produce work of the highest level.
It's a tough gig to work at Marketing Eye Atlanta right now as our culture is so good - that no-one is prepared to have a new marketing recruit that doesn't fit to perfection. We are "googling" our way to fast growth by focusing on culture first and qualifications second, but at the of the day, it is critical that a person who works with us has some common sense and understands most facets of marketing - the rest we teach.
In Atlanta, there are not many marketing positions on offer - and certainly none that offers the same opportunities as Marketing Eye unless you are working for a big global corporation. The reality is that there many highly qualified marketers from an academic perspective looking for positions, but most don't have any experience other than in sales or customer service. They simply have not been given the opportunity.
As we go through the hundreds of resumes, it is apparent that there are either people who have Degrees and some with Masters in Marketing Degrees, or the alternative; people who have been VP's of Marketing in organizations such as Coca Cola and other Fortune 500 companies.
