Sales Director, West

At Murj, we do what we love and love what we do!

Murj was founded in 2014 to solve a problem witnessed first-hand. Founder and CEO, Todd, worked with cardiology practices as an implantable cardiac device sales representative for Medtronic. He watched clinicians struggle to manage these sophisticated devices using outdated and inadequate tools. Having previously worked in product management at Apple, Todd knew that brilliant design can profoundly impact the user experience -- so why not design a better way to care for patients with implantable devices?

In Murj, Todd created an enterprise SaaS cardiac device management software solutions company that reimagines and transforms patient care through thoughtful design and a passion for quality and a commitment to customer satisfaction. Today, Murj continues this transformative innovation with intuitive, elegant, and imaginative technology solutions that improve the lives of cardiac care professionals and their patients.

What Success Looks Like (First 90 Days).

In a typical sales cycle for an enterprise environment, your first 90 days are about pipeline quality and process mastery.

Days 1 - 30:

Learn deeper, not faster.  The stakes of every conversation are higher in enterprise sales, so the learning bar is higher too. Success means understanding not just the product, but the business problems it solves at an executive level, the buying committee dynamics (who are the champions, blockers, economic buyers), and how deals have historically moved through the funnel. 

You should be obsessively absorbing - the company culture, product, pitch, Ideal Customer Profile, competitive landscape and internal tools (training, SalesForce, HubSpot, etc.)  Success looks like being able to confidently articulate the Murj value proposition and navigating the organization to bring the right SMEs to help you with your success.  You will be shadowing other reps on sales calls, demos, and workflow analysis.

Days 31 - 60:  

Start doing by entering real accounts thoughtfully.  You’re now making real calls, sending real outreach and running discovery calls - with a peer to support.  Success here looks like getting into a handful of real conversations with the right people at the right accounts.  You should be mapping accounts, identifying stakeholders, and starting to build genuine relationships - not just booking intro calls. Strong discovery calls where you uncover real pain matters more than ten surface-level touches.  You will have a growing pipeline and increasing comfort with objection handling.

Days 61 - 90: 

Start Owning a credible pipeline- This is where the most important measure of early success lives.  By the end of month three, you will be operating with increasing independence.  Success looks like a pipeline that reflects your own prospecting efforts, deals deeply advanced, and a clear understanding of your personal sales motion - that’s working for you specifically.  

A good outcome is having 3-5 real opportunities with documented next steps, clear stakeholder maps, and honest qualification. Internally, you should be seen as someone who takes initiative, asks good questions and doesn’t need to be managed closely.
