Account Manager - 61507357774

______________________________________________________________________

Role: Account Manager

Priority Location: South Africa and Latin America.

Working Hours: 9.30AM - 6.30 PM (CST) Mon - Fri

Salary Range: $1,500 - $2,000 USD per month (The final offer is at the client’s discretion and depends on the candidate’s interview result, skills, and experience.)

Type of contract: Independent Contractor 

Type of job: Remote

About the Company: 

My client is a US-based B2B promotional products supplier serving thousands of distributors across North America. They sell exclusively to the distributor channel — they don't compete with their customers, they help them win. They're known in the industry for reliability (98% on-time ship rate), proprietary product lines like Magic'TapTM NFC and UPHILLTM custom apparel, and a distributor-first model built around the success of our partners.

About The Role: 

The Account Manager owns the growth of a portfolio of US distributor accounts — driving new business, expanding existing accounts, and closing deals. You are paired with an Account Coordinator who handles quoting, order processing, proofs, and day-to-day transactional work. That means your time goes into selling, sourcing, negotiating, and growing — not paperwork. This is a quota role with real upside. Not customer service.

What You’ll Do:

• Own a book of existing accounts; drive repeat business, upsell, and cross-sell


• Retention — constant and periodic communication with your key accounts


• Schedule and run customer meetings — call constantly, stay in touch, stay top-of-mind


• Identify opportunities across our 2,000+ product catalog and proprietary lines


• Work with sourcing and design teams on custom product requests


• Handle objections, revisions, and pricing negotiations


• Re-engage stalled opportunities and dormant accounts


• Own the customer relationship end-to-end — you're the point of contact for escalations and account issues, not a hands-off manager


• Partner closely with your Account Coordinator — they execute, you grow

What “Good” Looks Like:

• You hit your weekly activity targets consistently, not in bursts


• Your existing accounts are growing — not just maintained


• Your pipeline is current; every opportunity has a next action with a date


• You close, or you get a clear no — deals don't sit stuck


• Your forecast is accurate; no month-end surprises

Required Qualifications & Skills:

• Excellent spoken and written English (neutral accent strongly preferred)


• Confident on the phone — this role is call-heavy


• 3+ years in B2B sales, business development, or account management with proven closing track record


• Ability to share concrete performance numbers (calls/day, quotes/week, closes/month, win rate, average order value)


• Comfortable with quotas, KPIs, and CRM discipline


• Tech-savvy: CRM systems, Microsoft tools, AI tools to work faster


• Organized, accountable, and able to operate with minimal supervision

Strong Advantages:

• B2B selling to US distributors or wholesalers


• Experience working with quotes, margins, lead times, and production timelines

Not a Fit If:

• You wait for accounts to come to you instead of proactively staying in touch and growing them


• You rely only on email/messages and avoid the phone


• You cannot share concrete performance numbers


• Your background is only retail or customer service with no quota-closing proof

Compensation & Growth:

• Competitive base + commission on invoiced sales


• Uncapped earning potential


• Clear growth path into senior sales and team lead roles as we scale


• Account Coordinator paired with you so you focus on selling, not paperwork


• We invest in tools and AI to make you faster, not to replace you


• A direct, fast-moving team that respects your time

We treat Account Managers as the growth engine of the business. You get a Coordinator to handle execution, real tools to do the work, and the freedom to sell. We invest in the people who invest in us.
