We're looking for someone who knows the church and ministry world from the inside and can open doors that a typical SaaS sales rep can't. This is a hybrid sales and business development role with two core mandates:
- Direct sales to churches and ministries — building pipeline, running demos, and closing deals with church administrators, facility/security directors, and pastoral staff.
- Strategic software partnerships — identifying and building relationships with church management software (ChMS) providers, giving/donor platforms, and other ministry tech vendors, with the goal of integrating Advanced Entry's visitor kiosk system into their ecosystems and creating co-selling opportunities.
You'll be the face of Advanced Entry in the faith-based technology world — equally comfortable closing a deal with a single church and pitching an integration partnership to a ChMS platform's BD team.
What You'll Do
- Prospect, pitch, and close new church and ministry accounts directly
- Build and manage relationships with ChMS and ministry software providers to establish integration and co-marketing/co-selling partnerships
- Represent Advanced Entry at church technology conferences, ministry expos, and denominational events
- Work closely with our product and engineering teams to scope integrations based on partner and customer needs
- Develop a go-to-market strategy for the church vertical, including messaging tailored to congregational priorities (guest engagement, child check-in security, volunteer tracking, donor/visitor follow-up)
- Maintain accurate pipeline and partnership tracking, and report on progress against targets
What We're Looking For
Required:
- Prior sales experience 5+years, specifically within the church or ministry sector (selling ChMS, AV/livestream tech, giving platforms, security systems, or similar)
- Experience building or managing partnership/channel relationships, ideally involving software integrations
- Understanding of how churches operate administratively — staff structure, budget cycles, decision-making process, and board/elder approval dynamics
- Strong self-starter who can manage a remote, independent pipeline with minimal oversight
- Excellent relationship-building and consultative selling skills
- Comfortable with travel to conferences, partner meetings, and occasional on-site church visits
Nice to Have
- Existing relationships with ChMS providers or other ministry technology vendors
- Background in physical security, access control, or visitor management technology
- Experience exhibiting or speaking at church technology / ministry conferences
