Overview
We’re looking for a high-energy Inside Sales Account Manager who can run day-to-day customer needs and also convert inbound warm leads into new programs. You’ll own customer communication, coordinate internal execution, and move opportunities forward, from initial request to quote to launch.
This role is ideal for someone who enjoys relationship-building and follow-through, has a sales mindset, and can comfortably pick up the phone to progress warm opportunities.

- Provide status updates, resolve issues, and ensure customers stay confident in timelines and deliverables.
Inbound Warm Leads + New Business Support
- Take ownership of inbound lead flow (website inquiries, referrals, existing customer requests, warm introductions).
- Qualify inbound requests: understand product, volume, packaging format, timelines, and success criteria.
- Coordinate internal inputs to build quotes and proposals (scope, assumptions, lead times, and pricing support).
- Follow up consistently to move opportunities from request → quote → decision → launch.
- Identify expansion opportunities within existing accounts (new SKUs, new formats, value-added services).
- Perform light outbound to drive growth: re-engage past inquiries, follow up on dormant quotes, and outreach to lookalike prospects in targeted categories.
What Success Looks Like
- Inbound requests get a fast response and don’t fall through the cracks.
- Higher quote conversion and faster turnaround from inquiry to launch.
- Customers receive excellent service and increase repeat business.
- Better internal coordination leads to fewer surprises and smoother execution.
Qualifications

- Proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets; CRM experience is a plus.
- Practical, team-first mindset; able to work cross-functionally in a fast-paced environment.
Preferred (Nice to Have)
- Exposure to contract packaging, co-manufacturing, fulfillment, or CPG.
