Personal Attributes

Selling hospital revenue cycle services has become more and more difficult in recent years. We will provide you with a certain amount of lead generation through marketing efforts, targeting tools, and the availability of subject matter experts, but to be successful you will need determination and the ability to self-motivate. We are looking for candidates with a positive outlook who understand that the path to success is building a pipeline as quickly as possible and to continually work to expand it. Dependability is critical – you need to be someone who does what you say you’ll do when you say you’ll do it. An outgoing personality and enthusiasm for networking are also important attributes.
