Elevate Rapid City also leveraged the EPIC program to provide market research for SatCom.
“The team at Elevate has been a great resource for us throughout the process,” Bedford said. “They were much more than just a source of information, they were a true partner that worked hard to make sure our new location would meet our needs at SatCom Marketing as well as the needs of the people of Rapid City.”
SatCom Marketing’s entry-level positions will start at $13 an hour plus earned commission to average $14 to $18 per hour, plus benefits.
“While our focus is always on production and meeting our clients’ business goals, we work well with our employees for flexible scheduling and incentives that matter to them,” said Bedford, adding that 51% of Minnesota-based sales agents have an average of 5 to 9 years of employment with the company.
Josephine Simmons, senior director of Human Resources at SatCom, said sales agent entry positions have been posted and the hiring process will likely begin next week following the arrival of the senior operations manager.
“Our furniture for cubicles is coming next week, so hopefully she has a desk and chair,” Simmons said.
She said the senior operations manager will be the first to review the applications and do face-to-face interviews.
