Sales

What is Sales?

Sure, Programming is the reason we exist in the first place, and Accounting might be where the bills get paid, but when we talk about company growth, the conversation starts and ends with our Sales department. These entrepreneurial spirits serve as Skyward evangelists in their assigned territories, generating new leads, delivering memorable demonstrations, and negotiating contracts. They do this by maintaining extensive knowledge of regional influences, competitors, and the motivations of our target audience.

Sales representatives often double as the main points of contact for current customers, ensuring continued awareness of the products, services, and opportunities available to them. The long-term relationships our reps form with school and district leaders not only set us apart from the competition, they also go a long way toward helping us build an extensive network of Skyward advocates and an ever-increasing market share in the states where we do business.
