Job Summary
At FranklinCovey Education, we are pursuing a bold vision: “What would it look like if every child had the opportunity to be a leader?” Through the Leader in Me framework and other powerful leadership and execution solutions (e.g., 4DX, 7 Habits, Speed of Trust), we partner with schools and districts to transform school culture, empower student voice, and achieve measurable results.
The Business Development Partner (BDP) plays a critical role in expanding our impact across the country. As a BDP, your primary focus is to generate qualified opportunities through a strategic outbound motion — driving awareness, interest, and early discovery conversations with new school and district prospects. You'll work closely with Client Partners (CPs) to support pipeline growth, campaign execution, event engagement, and handoff of high-quality meetings aligned to FranklinCovey's frameworks and solutions.
Essential Job Functions
Strategically research and identify target accounts, key decision-makers, and stakeholders in K–12 districts using tools like Salesforce, 6sense, MCH/K12Prospects, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator.
Execute high-quality, high-volume outbound campaigns using phone, email, video, and social (via Groove, and Loom) to generate top-of-funnel opportunities.
Leverage FranklinCovey's frameworks (Leader in Me, 4DX, 7 Habits, Speed of Trust, etc.) to create compelling outreach messaging that resonates with school and district needs.
Schedule discovery meetings between qualified prospects and the assigned Client Partner, ensuring a strong handoff and alignment with district priorities.
Drive awareness and attendance for FranklinCovey events and campaigns, and follow up with leads post-event to nurture interest.
Maintain accurate and up-to-date activity logs, notes, and opportunity data within Salesforce CRM.
Collaborate cross-functionally with Client Partners, Marketing, and Enablement to ensure consistency, campaign effectiveness, and ongoing team growth.
