Inside Sales

Can you feel comfortable, curious, and excited to engage in a conversation with a client or potential client to understand the scope of their needs? What they are looking for now? What their purchasing potential is? What they are looking for in their supplier?

Can you drill down from a general request to the exact tool or part a client is looking for? Do you know how to ask questions to get the information you need to help solve the problem?

Do you love reading catalogs and figuring out what goes with what? Do you have some experience with tools & machinery for metalworking, woodworking, or plastics?

Are you Outgoing? Approachable? Curious? Driven? Dedicated? Empathetic?
Do you possess Sales experience? B2B? Superior Customer Service? Problem Solving Skills? Intermediate Computer Skills? Front Counter experience?

If this describes you, we want to talk to you
