Inside Sales Intern

Job Description

NOTE: WE WILL BE REVIEWING APPLICATIONS AS THEY COME IN.

SEEKING AMBITIOUS 2024 FALL INTERNS. Over the years, we've had the privilege of mentoring many exceptional interns, and we've meticulously crafted our sales internship to make sure our interns gain vital sales skills and experiences to enhance their resumes.

Our Inside Sales Internship offers a challenging yet rewarding experience for those eager to learn sales. As an Inside Sales Intern, you will support our dedicated sales team in acquiring new clients for Social High Rise. You'll be trained in social media philosophy as it pertains to restaurants, and you'll undergo comprehensive sales training to master lead qualification, objection handling, closing strategies, and maintaining a robust sales pipeline.

BOTTOM LINE: If you are interested in learning how to sell, this internship is specifically tailored for you. And you'll also be exposed to the social media industry, social media marketing, and startup culture, which is a nice bonus.

To get the most out of your experience, we recommend a commitment of two semesters (Spring, Summer, or Fall). Historically, interns have seen their earnings double during their second semester, and they leave with a more extensive sales experience, stronger resumes, and more job offers after college.
