What does Five12 do as a company and what do we offer clients?
FIVE12 is a privately-owned firm that assists clients with customer acquisition. We drive measurable revenue through sales, typically in markets that are underperforming, and specialize in training our team members to acquire customers face to face. We help expand clients' market share by training our Managing Partners to oversee their campaigns and account teams, which has allowed us to grow quickly alongside any client we represent. We have become invaluable to our clients as they look to build from 2024 and into the coming years!
Why do clients choose us & what makes us different?
Consumers are constantly changing how they buy, so we offer solutions to increase revenue, build quality customer relationships for the long-term, and handle rapid change within a market to keep our clients relevant. We bring the highest quality representation to be the face of their brand. We train and develop every person within our team to be capable and effective with their consumers, and we promote our managing partners from within to ensure a win-win for both sides! Since launching, we have opened 5 new markets and brought new accounts to our clients at a rate of 12-1.
Is this door-to-door? How do we do sales?
Simple answer, No! We conduct direct sales in retail settings. We have always believed in low-pressure, fast paced environments where we can help more customers and be more effective with the amount of results we bring. We have contracts with all of our clients, focus our direct processes where we don't need consumers to come to us, and have confident representation to acquire new accounts at a rapid rate. We believe in working with the most stable clients in the most secure areas, which has created long-term growth & demand.
Do we offer training? Is the training paid?
YES. We invest a portion of company profit into our training program and believe this is one of the biggest catalysts of the growth we have had! Although everyone is different, we strongly believe that anyone can be successful when they work hard and have the right resources. We offer hands-on development and assign every team member a direct mentor as a resource. We are team based and love new ideas, so we build by cross-training and focusing on strengths & foundations. We always offer paid training and guidance no matter the position! Growing people are happy people, right?
What is the pay range? Is this commission only?
We offer a guaranteed base pay that is ALWAYS in place as well as additional commission and bonuses that are uncapped! Although base pay is determined through our interviews, we are upfront that our best managers thrive in a performance-based environment and typically double and triple the base pay in place. Starting range is $40,000-$50,000 while team leads will average $60,000-$75,000 their first year. As team leads step into management roles with FIVE12, they will earn profit share in the company and additional client revenue putting them in the six figure income bracket.
How do I know that Five12 is the right place for me?
As much as we hope to answer everything through our site, we believe that it is important to really "dive in" to determine the best fit and path within our company. We offer a candid interview process that allows for deeper conversation so all questions are answered. We are looking for the RIGHT fit as a long-term player and want any partnerships to be a win-win. We offer training, career opportunity, and support...but at the end of the day, we believe a winning mentality, competitive spirit, and growth mindset will be what helps someone thrive with FIVE12!
Are there any changes since Covid? Is there an office location?
We have made (as everyone has) lots of changes since Covid! We have not met in our office since 2020 and have continued to build our team on a hybrid schedule. Our team connects on Zoom in the morning and then meets with customers face to face in the afternoon. Our team loves to meet face to face for team-building events on a monthly and even sometimes weekly basis as well. We love human interaction and crave the kind of synergy, energy, and enthusiasm only a face to face environment can provide while having flexibility with a hybrid schedule. I mean - we are a face to face sales team!
What clients do you represent? Are they looking to grow?
We only work with large and established clients. We believe this is the main piece that has allowed for stability and growth for over 10 years. We have worked with telecom, energy, and technology-based clients that focus on consumer use, which means the way they market is always evolving. We have never missed a client target, and what started as a small team and one partner has now grown into multiple teams representing numerous clients! We are looking to expand and are in more demand than ever. It is an exciting time for us and we have plenty of new ventures to take on in the coming years!
