Account Executive

Functn is an event management and ticketing platform that connects organizers, venues, sponsors, and promoters in one system: ticketing and RSVPs, a Promoter Network, Sponsor Hub, a Venue Marketplace, and built-in SMS, email, and social marketing. We operate across nine U.S. markets and are building a team of independent Account Executives to drive growth in each one.
The role
You'll own the full cycle, from prospecting and discovery through demo, close, and handoff to Customer Success. You'll sell to event organizers, venues, promoters, nonprofits, and member organizations such as fraternities, sororities, and alumni associations, across a plan lineup that runs from a free tier to custom enterprise pricing.
Compensation (commission-only, uncapped)
- 20% of Functn revenue from each client you close for 12 months, then a 10% residual trail
- $100 activation bonus per client at $5,000 in completed ticket sales
- 20% of Functn's platform fee on sponsorship deals
- 60-day prospect protection
- Production standard: one new client per month on average, measured over 90-day windows
You'll thrive here if you
- Have closed B2B or SaaS deals, or have deep roots in events, promotions, or hospitality
- Can build your own pipeline and run a confident demo
- Want the upside of commission with the backing of a real product, training, and a Customer Success team
