About the job
Bland is hiring a Mid-Market Account Executive in San Francisco to drive new revenue by selling our Voice AI platform to mid-market companies. This role covers the full sales cycle, from first contact through closing. Success here means building and managing a strong pipeline, engaging technical buyers, and consistently closing deals. Those who enjoy technical products and can juggle multiple priorities will find this position rewarding.
Key Responsibilities
- Qualify prospects in a single call by identifying pain points and confirming fit.
- Deliver tailored product demonstrations that address specific customer challenges, not just standard feature tours.
- Engage with various stakeholders early, including leaders in product, technology, operations, and IT.
- Balance a high volume of deals while keeping the pipeline healthy and maintaining strong close rates.
- Proactively generate leads through outbound outreach, event follow-ups, and creative prospecting, taking initiative rather than waiting for leads.
What We Look For
- Working knowledge of the MEDDPICC sales framework to qualify leads, forecast, and spot risks early.
- Experience selling SaaS to mid-market clients, with typical sales cycles of 1 to 3 months and an ability to create urgency.
- Understanding of Voice AI concepts, including LLMs, APIs, and use cases like call deflection and agent assist, with the ability to explain them clearly.
- Solution selling skills, connecting product features to business outcomes such as operational efficiency and risk reduction.
- Insight into what motivates mid-market buyers and how to work with both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
- Bonus: Familiarity with Command of the Message, including leading value-driven conversations and using proof points.
Background and Experience
- 2 to 5 years of full-cycle SaaS closing experience, ideally with:
- Annual contract values (ACVs) between $50k and $300k
- Experience selling developer-focused or technical products
- Exposure to both outbound and inbound sales approaches
- Consistent record of meeting or exceeding sales targets.
