About the Role
We are looking for a Business Development Executive to engage insurance agencies, deliver value, and convert conversations into partnerships. This role is for someone who thrives on building a book of business through cold outreach, face-to-face visits, and industry relationships. You will proactively identify and pursue new opportunities, open doors with net-new prospects, and create demand where it doesn’t yet exist. Success means uncovering client needs, educating agencies on modern financing and digital payments, and positioning our solutions as mission-critical tools for accelerating their growth.

- Conduct 8–12 in-person agency visits/day, 4 days per week

- Travel to industry events, trade shows, and conferences
Requirements
- 5–7 years of business development or outside sales experience (insurance, financial services, field sales, or related)
- Proven ability to generate your own leads and close without MQLs
- Familiarity with insurance agents or small business B2B buyers is a strong plus
- High outbound tolerance — comfortable cold calling, walking in, and handling objections
- Self-motivated, confident communicator with sharp time management
- Proficient with Excel, PowerPoint, and CRMs (HubSpot a plus)
- Meet or exceed annual sales volume targets (gotoPremiumFinance & PaaS)
- Build and retain strong relationships with agencies and agency groups
