The posting

Bisnow is hiring a Senior Business Manager to join our team as a top-tier sales contributor driving revenue across our Texas events portfolio. This role is built for someone who thrives on sponsorship selling, who knows how to build and grow a strong book of business, and who wants to make a real impact on our biggest markets in the state. You'll come in with an established book of high-volume business and the ability to keep expanding it, bringing sharp relationship-building instincts and a track record of closing. This is a high-visibility seat with real runway to grow your territory and your numbers across Texas events.

We don’t have an exact Houston office yet, but we do want this person in-office, so we’ll choose a co-working space in a central location based on where they’re based. This is a hybrid position, working 3 days per week in the office managing a small team.

BISNOW OVERVIEW

Bisnow is the leading B2B media platform powering the commercial real estate industry. We connect CRE professionals through award-winning news, high-impact events, marketing solutions, recruiting services, and sales enablement tools that drive real business results.

We inform. We connect. We create opportunities that turn into deals. Global mindset. Hyper-local execution.

Become an expert in all aspects of the DOJO (office) Ten Pillars:

  • CRE Knowledge
  • Local Market Player Expertise

Key Responsibilities

  • Establish and maintain relationships with marketing executives within all asset classes and sectors of our targeted markets.
  • Drive event sponsorship sales by conducting in-depth research to source & confirm participation of sponsors for our commercial real estate conferences.
  • Assist event production department in an effort to build sponsor-friendly programs that ultimately align with the interest of Bisnow’s client base.
  • Constantly brainstorm fresh and relevant topic ideas to adapt to trends within the industry.
  • Understand both individual and larger team KPIs and position yourself to hit, if not exceed said KPIs on a daily, weekly and monthly basis.
  • Document daily activities in Salesforce CRM.
  • Work closely with the sales team to accelerate our sales cycle and to extend reach into target accounts.
  • Work with a positive, cross functional team on an everyday basis to make certain of successful sponsorship, marketing and financial performance of these events.
  • Participate with enthusiasm in all events, activities and training sessions that are asked of you by your DOJO (office) leader.

What are we looking for?

  • 3 - 6 years of direct B2B outside sales experience - preferably in Commercial Real Estate, Advertising Sales or Sponsorship Sales
  • Innate hustle, raw intelligence and infectious enthusiasm.
  • Ability to demonstrate an entrepreneurial yet disciplined mindset, creative yet organized work-ethic and an ambitious yet humble attitude.
  • Demonstrated experience excelling in a group or team environment of any sort.
  • Ability to remain receptive to feedback and open, constructive criticism.
  • Capability to work in a high-energy, fast-paced, frequently-changing sales environment.
  • A “never give up attitude”, positive mental state of mind and strong desire to be challenged on a daily basis. Rejection will come frequently, failures will be commonplace and the odds will be stacked against you and the sales executive you are supporting. If this sounds daunting, the role is not for you. If it sounds challenging and you like the idea of getting knocked down so that you can get back up, great. So do we.
  • Strong intellectual curiosity. We don’t believe we are perfect and we certainly don’t like to rest on our laurels when we do get things right. Our inside sales associates will need to meet with other firms to learn and expand their horizons and ultimately improve and further develop our processes to ensure continuous innovation.
  • Problem-solving skills, specifically the ability to assess situations, evaluate options, make decisions, draw conclusions, and exercise judgment.
  • You have a consistent track record of identifying customer needs and successfully implementing solutions.
  • A natural relationship builder and hunter who loves closing deals.

What's in it for you?

  • Competitive compensation structure including base salary + uncapped commission & bonuses!
  • Medical, Dental and Vision Insurance
  • Short and Long Term Disability Insurance - includes maternity and paternity leaves as well
  • 401K

  • 9 paid Holidays
  • Referral Bonus Program
  • Pet Friendly Offices
  • You’ll get to work with incredibly smart, passionate, driven, ambitious, kind, caring and mindful people and will rarely experience an overload of policies, bureaucracy or toxicity (the latter, we do not tolerate).
