This includes writing (or participating in writing) proposals, drafting design drawings, providing quotations, and creating any technical documentation or guidance required during the pre-sale stage.
- After being introduced into a project by the Sales or Account Manager, a Field Sales Engineer’s responsibility is to develop relationships with decision-makers and technical staff, becoming their technical resource and reference.
- Provide demonstrations and training of the technological aspects of Biamp’s products and solutions in the field to system integrators, consultants, end-users, and distributors on all aspects of Biamp’s equipment, its functions, and its uses.
- Drive the sales process through all phases requiring technical or design decisions. Fully explain to clients how a Biamp solution solves their issues. Help increase Biamp market share by providing world-class technical expertise on every project.
- Participate in regional trade shows as necessary, meeting customers at the booth and delivering equipment demos or providing technical expertise.
- Maintain an ethos of constant self-improvement on sales techniques and technical skills.
- Work in conjunction with Biamp sales managers as the key technical advisor and product advocate.
