About the Business

Research indicates that the top priorities of potential business owners are: freedom, flexibility in business hours, a pleasant work environment, and an unlimited income opportunity.

Account Executives, Inc. meets the priorities listed above and then some!

Type of Business

Sales/Public Relations/Marketing

The type of business training the company offers is for an Independent Account Executive, or business representative. As an Independent Account Executive you contract with businesses to represent their products/services to other businesses. You provide lead generation and public relations through personal contacts, and marketing by distributing promotional materials.

A Bit of History

Twenty years in pursuit of the perfect business opportunity started to come together when in 1997, company founder, Kari Jagodzinski, started her business as an Independent Account Executive. The response was tremendous. But there were many lessons to learn along the way. Today she has put her marketing education and years of sales and marketing experience together with her business expertise to create the perfect business opportunity for you!

The Perfect Business Opportunity

Enjoyable

"Do something you enjoy so much, you are not thinking about how you can retire from it."

We spend so much of our time at work it is vital to the quality of our life that we like what we do!

Being an Independent Account Executive is FUN! You meet people, learn about different businesses, make important business contacts, and work with professional clients.

Marketable

No business can succeed without filling a need. The service or product must be easily mainstreamed into the marketplace. More easily said, "You have to have something that people want to buy."

(This sounds simple, but there are thousands and thousands of people who have created a business out of a hobby or an idea only to fail because they did not study the need/want in the marketplace!)

Account Executives, Inc. has studied and tested the market for you. In addition, the principle always stands that businesses want to sell more of whatever they are selling, and that is what an Independent Account Executive helps them accomplish.

Income

It often takes YEARS to get to the point an owner can take a paycheck out of the business debt free. Most of us cannot afford to go without income.

As an Independent Account Executive, you can expect to earn up to six figures - working about 40 hours a week, with national holidays off and two weeks of vacation.

Return on Investment

If you are going to forego a regular paycheck and benefits that go with a job, then you need to have a business that replaces that security with an excellent return - for the time you invest in it, and also the paycheck you are giving up.

As an Independent Account Executive you will quickly yield a great return on investment, plus you gain great flexibility, mobility, and enjoy working in a professional environment.

Low Start-up & Operating Costs

So many businesses require a large amount of capital - money invested. Having to take out a loan or line of credit often "breaks the bank" and the business goes under.

Account Executives, Inc. has a minimal start-up cost. You probably already have most of what you need and operating costs are minimal. You can choose to work from your home or to lease a small office.

Flexible

Doing something we enjoy is important, earning an income is a must, making a sound investment in a equitable business venture is wise, but another critical element is that it our business fit with our life! Having the freedom to schedule business around family makes for a fulfilling lifestyle.

As an Independent Account Executive you can choose the number of hours you wish to work and schedule your business around personal activities.

A Pleasant Work Environment

You create your individual office space. Smoking or non, personal emails acceptable, etc.... Your space is a reflection of your unique personality!

As you visit your clients and make additional business contacts, you have the benefit of working in a professional environment. You may enjoy entertaining clients over lunch, golf, concerts or sporting events. If this is not your cup of tea, that is fine too. The beauty of it is that this is your business to operate as suits you.

Training & Support Resources

Some of us are good at administrative tasks or reporting or sales or marketing, but most of us are not good at all these aspects of running a business. That is why it is vital that your business have a resource to train and support you. Many businesses fail because of a weakness in an important area.
