- Develop referral partnerships that can generate recurring business.
- Identify creative new uses for the facility and ways to monetize the space.
- Help coordinate bookings from initial inquiry through the event.
- Maintain a CRM and consistently follow up with prospective clients.
- Work with our team on marketing, photography, video, social media, and other efforts to promote the facility.
Who We're Looking For
Someone who is:
- Sales-driven and comfortable with proactive outreach and cold calling.
- Personable, professional, and confident presenting to clients.
- Entrepreneurial and able to develop opportunities without waiting for direction.
- Organized and consistent with follow-up.
- Creative about identifying new customers and uses for the space.
