Our Business Development Representatives (BDRs) are an integral part of the Revenue Organization as they exist to build closable sales pipeline so we can grow and accomplish our mission. BDRs are responsible for initiating introductory meetings with prospects and booking calls with our Account Executives. BDRs research and prospect into target customers, create pain/payoff, identify needs, introduce 15Five, and book meetings to generate a closable pipeline. Successful BDRs demonstrate a growth mindset, tenacious cold contact skills, data-driven curiosity, adaptability, and a hunger to win. Performers often move onto an Account Executive, Account Manager, or even Customer Success Manager role. This is an exciting time to be prospecting into a specific target customer profile with a message that is resonating with HR professionals who want to engage, grow, and retain talent for their business.
