Inside Sales Rules Here!

Typically, industrial distribution utilizes an outside salesforce, but at KBC, the inside sales team takes the lead to grow the sale, uncover the potential, find the client's pain and scale the business.

No more hot shot outside sales people treating you like their personal secretaries. You make it happen. You are recognized.

Can you feel comfortable, curious, and excited to engage in a conversation with a client or potential client to understand the scope of their needs?

What are they looking for now? What is their purchasing potential is? What are they looking for in their supplier?

Can you drill down from a general request to the exact tool or part a client is looking for? Do you know how to ask questions to get the information you need to help solve the problem?

Do you love reading catalogs and figuring out what goes with what? Do you love watching machining videos on YouTube? The bigger the lathe the better? Do you have some experience with tools & machinery for metalworking, woodworking, or plastics?

Are you Outgoing? Approachable? Curious? Driven? Dedicated? Empathetic? I don't know but I'll find out attitude?

If this describes you, we want to talk to you!
