Sales Representative Jobs in Wilmington, NC

A Sales Representative is a professional who works in the sales industry to sell goods and services to customers. These individuals are responsible for identifying potential customers, presenting products or services, answering queries, negotiating prices, and closing sales. They play a pivotal role in the revenue generation process, maintaining relationships with existing clients, and prospecting new customers for business growth. Sales Representatives should be able to understand customer needs, provide accurate information, and have excellent communication skills to effectively convey the benefits of their products or services.

Important skills for a Sales Representative include strong interpersonal and communication skills, negotiation, customer service, and time management. A good understanding of the product or service being sold is crucial, as well as the ability to use sales software and CRM systems. Certifications like Certified Professional Sales Person (CPSP) or Certified Sales Leadership Professional (CSLP) can be beneficial, though not always necessary. Before becoming a Sales Representative, a person might have roles such as a Sales Assistant, Customer Service Representative, or a Telemarketer to gain the necessary skills and experience.
