Rocketeers Wanted
We published a new job post for an Inside Sales Rep today on our jobs page. This person will be responsible for helping us set up our telesales business to work with prospects in understanding their presentation needs and illustrating how SlideRocket can fulfill them. Apart from a very competitive compensation package and a great team of smart people to work with, it’s a chance to help build a new SaaS business from the ground up and bring an amazing product to a market that is clamoring for better presentation solutions.
While SlideRocket offers all kinds of ways to do presentations better, one of the biggest challenges we’ll face is convincing users to make the investment to switch from what they know to something they don’t, from a shrink-wrapped desktop solution with a monopolized market and mind share to a no-wrap, cloud based solution full of potential energy. There’s two pieces of good news. Number 1 – People LOVE SlideRocket, we’ve had amazing responses from beta users and that’s exactly the brand experience we want. Number 2 – It’s not us that needs to keep looking over our shoulder 
SlideRocket is uniquely positioned to become the next big thing in presentation technology, now we just need someone to take the orders. The Inside Sales Rep position is a great chance to get into SlideRocket pre-launch and we’d love to hear from qualified candidates. Come be a rocketeer!

Let’s get some spell-check up in here: “experiece”, “uniqely”.
Sorry. Minored in English. Work in Education. All that potential energy can’t be contained, I understand.
Excellent product — can’t wait to use it!
Thanks,

Hi!
This looks like a great product. I am very excited about it. I realize that you are going to be going to a paid model Do you have a breakdown as to what that will look like yet?
My second question (and the more important one for me) do you have any plans to help the education community use your product as in a discount or something else? Thanks!

This will be a interesting petrie dish for me….using SR to prospect online in an effort to solidfy both ‘retail’ real estate clients AND speaking clients for my secondary business. I have a great deal to learn but the frighening reality is this product has my brain humming to an endless stream of possibilities. Now if I can only live up to the application’s potential……..
