Econocom sales agent: what's the ideal profile?
Econocom's sales agents are an essential part of our growth strategy. The quality of their recruitment is therefore a major issue for us. Across Europe, we're looking for experienced sales people who are experts in our businesses and have a real entrepreneurial spirit.
Experienced sales staff
Above all, we're looking for seasoned salespeople. Aged over 40, or even over 50, you have several years' experience in selling BtoB products or services to key accounts, ETIs and/or public organizations. We prefer profiles that are able to establish lasting relationships of trust with their customers, and to support longer sales cycles. Our sales agents' entire approach is centered around one primary objective: customer satisfaction.
Expert in digital solutions
In addition to their commercial talent, our agents are experts in the various businesses in which we operate: the workplace, with the distribution of IT equipment and associated services, IT infrastructures, audiovisual, financing of IT equipment and strategic assets. They have in-depth knowledge of the issues involved in the digital transformation of organizations. They know the decision-makers and buyers, and are able to guide their technological choices in a complex, constantly evolving environment. Their thorough understanding of the issues at stake makes them trusted experts who, with the help of Econocom's teams, can develop tailor-made solutions that perfectly meet their customers' needs.
An entrepreneurial mindset
Choosing to become an Econocom sales agent means turning your dreams of independence into reality. As a sales agent, you'll need to be autonomous, daring and results-oriented! As the head of his or her own company, a sales agent is first and foremost a business leader with a long-term strategy for building wealth. With total freedom of organization, they manage their time and prioritize in a dynamic, competitive and stimulating environment.

A status that also applies to women
There are still very few women among our sales agents, and yet women have their rightful place at our side. While we are aware that we operate in a highly technical sector, traditionally more male-dominated, we are determined to change that! The recruitment campaign we are running throughout Europe should enable us to move towards a more gender-balanced workforce.
Exciting jobs, a wealth of contacts, attractive remuneration and total freedom to organize one's work: these are just some of the advantages we intend to use to recruit more talented saleswomen.
A unique entrepreneurial adventure
What if I had to do it all over again? To this question, our sales agents often reply that their biggest regret is not to have taken the plunge sooner! Becoming an Econocom sales agent means combining a number of privileges: the opportunity to practice a profession you're passionate about, to be your own boss, to earn a salary commensurate with your talent... all while benefiting from the strength and solidity of a leading player in Europe.
The luxury of only doing what you love
What do our sales agents most appreciate? To be able to concentrate fully on what they love: the commercial development of their business. Negotiators at heart, they can devote most of their time to missions where they excel: meeting their customers, scoring points with innovative sales proposals, closing new contracts. Agents can rely on the resources made available to them by Econocom - pre-sales, marketing, back-office, etc. - to focus on developing their business!
