About the job
At Groupon, we connect customers with unique experiences and services while empowering local businesses to flourish. With over a million merchant partners globally and more than 16 million customers enjoying our diverse offerings, we are a distinctive platform dedicated to enhancing the success of local enterprises on a performance-based model.
We are embarking on a transformative journey at Groupon, characterized by a relentless pursuit of results. Despite our large workforce spread across continents, we foster a culture that promotes innovation, encourages calculated risk-taking, and celebrates achievements. Here, your contributions can have an immediate impact thanks to our scale and rapid transformation. We offer the best of both worlds: ample resources and a supportive environment where individual autonomy leads to meaningful outcomes.
About the Role:
Groupon is expanding, and we are seeking dynamic and driven Sales Development Representatives to join our sales team in Chicago’s vibrant River North area. If you have a background in sales or customer-facing roles where you have successfully pitched, upsold, or managed objections, you will find yourself well-equipped for success in this role.
As a Sales Development Representative, you will play a crucial role in helping local businesses thrive. You will engage with business owners to introduce them to Groupon, identify their goals, and develop tailored solutions that attract new customers to their establishments.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Identify and reach out to local businesses that could benefit from Groupon.
- Make outbound calls to present our platform and ignite interest among business owners.
- Deliver persuasive pitches by customizing solutions to meet each merchant’s objectives.
- Take ownership of your targets and celebrate your successes.
- Establish trust and foster long-term relationships with merchants.
- Collaborate with internal teams to execute successful campaigns.
