Every day as an SDR, you will leverage intent-based data to prioritize and tailor your outreach to prospects, leveraging tools such as Salesforce, Outreach, LinkedIn, and other prospecting tools combined with digital selling techniques to research accounts, identify key contacts, and craft targeted messaging to effectively communicate our value proposition across a wide-ranging portfolio of solutions – including content, commerce, intelligence and experimentation. SDRs work with new prospects to understand their challenges and goals to accurately scope business requirements and facilitate engagement with Account Executives and Solutions Consultants to create a prescriptive follow up plan that translates to new opportunity creation.
