Quorum
Washington, DC, USA
Consistently named one of the top D.C. start-ups to watch since 2016, Quorum is software built for public affairs. Thousands of public affairs professionals use Quorum for their work in Congress, all 50 state legislatures, major U.S. cities, and the European Union. Quorum is 100% bootstrapped—meaning we have never raised venture capital funding—and works with organizations like Coca-Cola, the United Nations Foundation, Sierra Club, General Motors, and Lyft.
As a Customer Relationship Advisor, you will use a value-based approach to sell B2B SaaS solutions to and manage renewals for a portfolio of 150–200 existing Quorum clients.
What You'll Do
First Week: You'll learn the basic ins and outs of current Quorum products, attend a variety of client engagements, and get to know 20+ dedicated Quorum Customer Success team members.
First Month: You will take ownership over a portfolio of 150–200 client accounts, including 50+ active renewal and/or expansion opportunities at various stages in the pipeline. You will build an advanced understanding of Quorum’s six standalone products and an intermediate understanding of a selection of additional configurable add-ons.
First Six Months: You will demonstrate a high-degree of consistency in engaging with clients to close renewals on-time. You will progress from demoing Quorum products with a teammate to providing solo demos to clients. And, you will seek out or create opportunities to build internal champions at client organizations in order to identify and execute on strategic expansion sales.
First Year: You will consistently meet or exceed team-wide renewal rate goals and individual expansion quota by establishing yourself as a trusted advisor that helps clients understand how they can increase the value they receive from the Quorum platform by renewing and adding products and/or services to their subscription. You will play an important role in growing a start-up and establishing Quorum as a market leader in Washington, DC.
