Our Mission
We exist to transform the communications industry in a way that puts a smile on the faces of our clients, employees and investors. When you think about it, almost everything we do today is running over the communications infrastructure – phone calls, text, email, mobile apps, IM, looking something up in a database. It is the circulatory system for the flow of information within a company and around the globe. Today’s communications landscape is comprised of Connectivity, Cloud, Collaboration and Anything-as-a-Service, the sector is undergoing massive technology changes and seismic shifts in the industry leader landscape. It’s a vast industry that account for 30% of IT spend in the US and costs enterprises as much as 4% of their revenues every year. Communications is poised for change and transformation in an unprecedented way and zLinq plans to play a major part. Our name comes from a reference to the ‘last mile’ – the last stretch of wire or wireless access that in today’s super connected world links the end user to everything important.

THE OPPORTUNITY
We are hiring a results-oriented Account Executive with one year of cold outreach pipeline generation experience to:
- Develop a sales pipeline using a proven methodology of hyper personalization through cold calls, emails, mailers and LinkedIn touches.
- Network within a vertical to build relationships and expertise.
- Support opportunities through a well-defined sales cycle, learning to navigate enterprise organizations with the extensive support of the sales leadership team.
- Manage a funnel of opportunities towards achievement of quota.
- Transition signed service agreements to our Customer Success team who provides the managed service offering.
*Please note that this is a full lifecycle Account Executive role, but that internally we use the title “Sales Consultant” to show our value from a client-facing perspective.
THE VALUES
We spent a lot of time netting out our values to these three simple concepts:
- Get Results (we are a startup, so we are very result oriented)
- Build Trust (getting results the right way to build long lasting relationships)
- Have Fun (we spend a huge part of our life at work, so having fun is a must)
Our values are the main driver behind everything we do and its working! Our employees love being here, employee engagement is one of the core metrics we focus on – the Gallup poll we took showed we are in the top 1% of employee engagement among 1000s of companies in the US. To top it all off, we were voted the #1 Best Place to Work in Denver for the small business category.
We know that happy employees make happy customers, our clients love working with us – we have an NPS score of 81, by comparison the overall telecom industry sits at a dismal NPS score of only 27 which is exactly what we are here to fix. We began measuring these metrics for the first time in 2019 and will use them as benchmarks to continue improving. We also use Emergenetics profiling for every employee that greatly improves our communications inside and outside the company.
