A day in the life of an Account Executive:
Start the day with a coffee and stand-up meeting, discussing daily and weekly goals with my team. It's always good to verbalise the plan for the day. The first call of the day is imminent. A potential customer is having issues with their current mobility strategy. You already prepared a new strategy for them to turn their fleet into a driver of business instead of just a cost. Our software can definitely play a big part in the solution you have in mind. The phone rings, it’s Mrs X., she tells you the board has discussed your business case, they love the solution you proposed and enthusiastically signed the offer. You update Salesforce and receive emoji love from the whole team!
Customer success has just informed you that the data of a new customer (which you closed!) needed only a few alterations and will soon be on boarded. Perfect, another customer ready to use the platform! Next up, a quick lunch with the prospecting team to discuss improvements to the current lead generation strategy. Before you go home you quickly go over your travel plans for the next two days.
