What will you be doing?
In the role of Account Manager Shops, you are responsible for onboarding new shops that wish to enter into a partnership with Festivalcadeau to risk-free increase their turnover by selling the Festival Cadeaukaart. Through Festivalcadeau, you offer shops an additional sales channel, a way to achieve more sales risk-free and increase their turnover. When you present this in the right way, there is almost no reason for shops to say no to this irresistible offer. After their registration, shops can log in to the back end of Festivalcadeau, view their statistics via the Shops dashboard, and have their generated turnover paid out. They can activate gift cards very easily by scanning the Festival Cadeaukaart and loading it into their POS system. Does the shop not have a POS system? Then they can also use the Festivalcadeau App, which we have developed especially for them and is available for download in the iOS App Store.
It is your task to approach shops using your vision and strategy and to ensure that as many entrepreneurs as possible join Festivalcadeau. You do this in any way you prefer and according to your own approach, which will be determined in consultation. You can choose a communication channel yourself, or use several simultaneously. You also decide when you do this, as you determine your own working hours. In short, a versatile, independent, and responsible role where you also serve as the face of Festivalcadeau.
What your average working day looks like
- You determine the strategy and coordinate it with us. You work out the strategy or refine it where necessary. All with the goal of welcoming as many new shops as possible that will start working under your management.
- You sit down at your laptop and create a new email sequence for acquisition. You prepare it and send it at the time you think it will be most effective.
- In between, you receive a call from a potential partner who is interested in signing up. You have a nice conversation, ask about their shop concept, whether they sell related items, and what the target audience of their shop visitors looks like.
- You determine how Festivalcadeau can collaborate with the shop and send a proposal by email. If you haven't received a confirmation after a few days, you contact them again and further convince the partner to benefit from all the extra visibility through the Festival Cadeaukaart.
- After the shop has registered as a new partner via the website, you have a few more contacts - by phone, email, or WhatsApp - to explain how the dashboard works and provide guidance so that as many gift cards as possible are sold.
