Join our Mission to Build the Future of Advanced Messaging

At Avochato, we make it easy for organizations to connect with their customers in the most modern and fun ways. Thousands of companies and hundreds of millions of consumers use Avochato to communicate seamlessly over SMS, MMS, WhatsApp, and Live Chat. Our vision is to establish dialogue with each and every one of the world’s 6 billion mobile devices through our SaaS platform. 

In today’s world, people prefer to communicate over messaging— it’s easy, fast, and concise. The challenge is that business processes are primarily built around legacy technology (like email and call software). Avochato solves this problem by upgrading companies to messaging, delivering a superior customer experience while improving sales, retention, and customer satisfaction. 

Avochato’s strategy is to leverage the transformative potential of AI to revolutionize communications for both agents and consumers. Recently named a Gartner Cool Vendor in AI and a G2Crowd Leader in messaging software, our company is at the forefront of advanced messaging technology. To support our growth, we’re looking to hire teammates that are passionate about building towards our mission and vision.

  • Avochato offers great benefits including full-coverage of health, vision, and dental plans

This Role:

We are looking for an Account Executive to join our growing Sales team who will be responsible for acquiring new SMB and Mid-Market customers. This is a unique opportunity for a hard-working and entrepreneurial salesperson to have a significant impact on Avochato’s business and its customers. Over the next few years, millions of businesses will upgrade their communication systems to incorporate AI-powered messaging. We are looking for someone who has that vision and can drive new adoption across the SMB and Mid-Market segments.

  • You will be responsible for acquiring new customers at companies between 25 and 250 employees, and successfully onboard them as long term clients
  • You will work inbound leads from paid and direct channels but will be expected to drive at least 50% of your pipeline from outbound sales

  • You will partner with Customer Success and successfully transition new accounts after 3 months

What Makes You A Good Fit:

  • 3+ years of successful outbound sales experience into the SMB or Mid-Market Segments at a SaaS company
