• Drive, passion, and competitiveness with a strong desire to compete and win
• Extremely self-motivated and independent with a diligent work ethic
• Fearlessness – willing to call new people daily to educate them on MarketDial’s value proposition
• Curiosity - must have a firm grasp on outbound prospecting best practices - yet have an innate curiosity to continually investigate new trends and disruptive approaches that will capture the attention of prospective customers

• Ability to work unsupervised as well as part of a team in a fast-paced environment
