Business Intern
Marketing, strategy, business development
Join Dealer Ignition and help build a great company! We are a small team of very experienced business and technical folks based in Greenville, SC, dedicated to scaling what is already a fantastic software and services business. The company is funded, revenue positive and growing by leaps and bounds.
The MBA intern will work directly with the executive team to build strategic aspects of the business. This will include working on financial, planning, marketing and sales aspects of the business. Make no mistake. This is not a 9 to 5, corporate office job. You will be working for an entrepreneurial technology startup (albeit 2+ years old) that has an existing customer base and investors.
This position will expose you to what it’s like to build a business in the a very fast-paced environment of digital marketing software. You will learn more about online marketing here than you can shake a stick at, from people who have been in the business for many years. If you’re already an e-marketing pro, then you can truly excel. If you’re an energetic, fast-learning newbie and highly motivated, we definitely should talk.
Responsibilities:
- Assist executive team in business planning and strategy development
- Conduct analysis and crunch numbers to help validate strategic direction
- Develop tactical sales and marketing plans with the team
- Develop a database of market and competitive information
- Dive deep into online marketing and develop tools and content that helps advance customer success and sales
- Investigate new or nascent areas of market and sales opportunity
You will have the opportunity to create your own goals and objectives with guidance from your executive team sponsor. You will be expected to deliver something of true and lasting value to the company.
Requirements:
- A commanding desire to learn and succeed in the discipline of marketing, sales and business management
- 3+ years work experience and ability to convince us how that experience can benefit our team
- Intelligence/smarts – measured more in your ability to think on your feet, reason out load and convince others than your GPA or positions you’ve held in the past
- 4 year degree and on-track to receiving MBA
- Any online, e-commerce, marketing, software development, sales or startup experience a plus
- Knowledge of any of the following industry sectors a plus: Home Products, Information Technology (Hardware or Software), Automotive
Cubicles suck! Enjoy a progressive, inviting work environment and team. Work hard, have fun and enjoy building a company.
