About Domu

Domu is Chicago’s favorite apartment website, helping thousands of renters find apartments worthy of calling home every week. We are proudly a local Chicago start-up with a recognizable and widely loved brand.

In a recent independent study of thousands of Chicago tenants, Domu was chosen as the best apartment website.

What We’re Looking For

We’re seeking a self-starter with fire in their belly—someone passionate about building relationships with clients and anticipating their needs to help Domu better serve their businesses. This person is both organized and driven, comfortable making a cold call to a small client one day and meeting in person with senior executives at large property management companies the next. The ideal candidate is proactive, goal-oriented, and ready to be on the field at least two days a week meeting new and existing clients.

About the Role

  • Schedule meetings via email, phone, and LinkedIn prospecting.
  • Make in-person visits to property managers and hold meaningful discussions about their business needs, challenges, and goals.
  • Become an expert on the Domu platform to confidently sell its benefits, troubleshoot client issues, and direct requests to the appropriate Domu team members for swift resolution.
  • Attend industry events and networking opportunities to connect with professionals and represent Domu products.

Key Responsibilities

  • Develop a deep understanding of your clients' businesses, anticipating their needs, and identifying how Domu's products can help them achieve their goals.
  • Build strong, long-lasting relationships with key decision-makers across your client portfolio.
  • Create and execute a sales growth plan that prioritizes high-potential business opportunities.
  • Use a CRM to track prospects, manage opportunities, and set quarterly sales goals.
  • Meet clients regularly in person, delivering tailored presentations that build rapport and demonstrate value.
  • Qualifications

    Must-Have :

  • Superior interpersonal skills and the ability to build rapport with clients and foster long-term relationships.
  • At least two years of experience in sales of advertising, digital services, or real estate (preferred).
  • A proven track record in executive outreach and strong communication skills.
  • Confidence in navigating uncertainty and negotiating to achieve the best outcomes for Domu and its clients.
  • Nice-to-Have :

  • Proficiency in using Salesforce or Hubspot to manage sales opportunities throughout the lifecycle.
  • A highly organized, detail-oriented approach to work, with diligence in client follow-up.
  • The ability to manage multiple projects simultaneously and effectively.
  • Comfort working independently in a remote environment and meeting clients in person at their offices.
  • Familiarity with the Chicago market (preferred but not required).
  • If your compensation planning software is too rigid to deploy winning incentive strategies, it’s time to find an adaptable solution. Compensation Planning
