- Ensure sales enablement tools are integrated into the GRIP process and consistently utilized throughout the sales lifecycle
- Assist with training reinforcement, adoption tracking, and best-practice usage of sales technology across the sales team
- Work in close partnership with the Brand Coordinator to ensure consistent brand standards, messaging, and presentation across all sales materials and client-facing communications
- Coordinate with Marketing and Brand teams as needed for proposals, presentations, campaigns, and sales initiatives
- Ensure sales materials align with agency brand guidelines while supporting the consultative sales process
- Act as a liaison between Sales and Marketing to support timely execution without owning social media, community involvement, or standalone marketing programs
