Flex Account Sales Representative

Company Overview

Motorola Solutions is there for our customers when everything is on the line. In extreme moments — when a hurricane lands or when a fire breaks out. And in everyday moments — when a package arrives just in time for the holiday or when a child doesn’t miss the school bus home.

We unify voice, data, video and analytics in one integrated ecosystem to enable individuals, businesses and communities to work together in more powerful ways. To help people make better decisions, act confidently and be their best in the moments that matter. Bring your passion, potential and talents to Motorola Solutions and connect with a career that matters.

We are seeking a top-performing, technical sales professional who understands the unique approach to selling our company’s public safety software solutions to prospective customers, while developing and maintaining excellent customer/client relationships. This sales professional will be responsible for selling Motorola’s industry-leading computer aided dispatch, records management, jail management, evidence management, analytics, and situational awareness solutions to new customers. This is a combined hunter and farmer role, with primary emphasis on farming. This role will be assigned to work with the largest cities and counties within the territory to proactively influence well in advance of any formal project.

Customer relationships are developed by phone contact, personal visits, tradeshow attendance, onsite discovery, software demonstrations, oral presentations, and through attending regional user group meetings. Sales responsibilities are assigned by region or major geographical area and territories are sized by total customers operating as a "host" agency. Selling opportunities include on-site product presentations, internet demonstrations, and coordinating with state and local officials on individual and multi-jurisdictional projects. A thorough understanding of local government procurement processes are helpful. Typical travel is moderate to high with being in territory (in front of the customer) 50-65%. Top sales performers are compensated aggressively with accelerators upon achieving annual sales quota.
