- Respond to incoming inquiries from Marketing communication (including newsletters, ads, and associated campaigns).
- Ensure every inquiry is managed in the best way possible.

**Relationship development**:
In order to secure as many qualified sales appointments as possible, you will be expected to develop:

- A deep understanding of the issues our prospects face

- Competitor research, by monitoring news updates and industry trends, then capturing your findings to support Sales and Marketing with new sales opportunities and campaign ideas.

**Marketing support**:
If/when requested, you will be required to align with the Marketing team to:

- Support them with information they can use for promotional material related to specific campaigns. Your market knowledge, experience, and research findings will therefore be invaluable.
- Line up your outbound telesales efforts to the marketing campaigns that are running, respond to incoming inquiries, and ensure Sales gets in contact with qualified leads.
- Ensure a healthy attendance of hosted events, and follow up with sales prospects in a timely manner.
