Demand generation across our vendor exclusive distribution partnerships, field rep expansion model, and Merchandising team is producing 300+ inbound retailer leads per month — well beyond current capacity. This role captures that demand by converting qualified leads into activated, revenue-producing accounts on CRM & ERP back-end systems, and by keeping the onboarding pipeline moving without bottleneck.
