Frequently Asked Questions

A SMB (Small-to-Medium Business) Account Executive focuses on companies with fewer employees and simpler procurement processes. They handle a larger volume of deals, often with shorter sales cycles, while tailoring solutions to meet smaller budgets and growth trajectories.

SMB AEs typically receive a base salary plus commissions tied to monthly or quarterly sales targets. Their compensation often rewards efficiency, quick deal closures, and the ability to scale revenue from a higher volume of lower-ticket deals.

SMB AEs can advance to Mid Market or Enterprise sales roles, handling more complex deals and higher-value contracts. Over time, they may become Sales Managers, guiding teams focused on similar segments, or move into Strategic Account roles that handle a broader client portfolio.
