We're looking for an Outbound SDR to reach those decision-makers and get them in the room. This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys talking to people, likes having a clear process to work within, and wants to build a sales career from the ground up. You don't need industry experience. You don't need a specific degree. And while previous sales experience is helpful, we're more interested in how you work. We're looking for someone who is curious, coachable, organized, comfortable picking up the phone, and motivated enough to own their day. You'll join an established outbound motion with prospect lists, CRM note templates, an AI-powered resource hub, and training already in place. Your job is to learn the system, execute it consistently, and help us identify ways to make it even better. What You’ll Do Make 100–150 outbound calls per day to prospective leads Reach and engage decision-makers over the phone Invite and secure commitments from qualified prospects to attend our weekly webinar Follow established outreach cadences and call frameworks - this role is not about pitching or presenting; it's about consistent, disciplined booking Personalize CRM notes using approved templates, updating variables per conversation Use our AI chatbot and resource hub as your first line of support for questions, keeping downtime low Maintain accurate records of every call, outcome, and next step in the CRM Surface patterns, objections, and prospect feedback to sales leadership Participate in regular 1:1 coaching focused on development and performance Adapt as messaging and workflows evolve based on what we're learning Technology You'll Use This is a systems-driven role supported by AI-assisted tools, so baseline technology comfort is important. You should be comfortable with: CRM systems and accurate data entry Professional email and calendar management AI-powered support/chatbot tools Browser-based applications, working across multiple systems Video conferencing tools (Zoom, Google Meet, or similar) Experience with automation or workflow tools such as Zapier is a plus, but not required. More important: you're comfortable learning new technology and troubleshooting basic issues independently. What You Bring Previous experience in any of the following is helpful, but not required: Business Development / Sales Development Inside or outbound sales Lead generation or appointment setting Customer service with a strong communication component We believe sales skills can be taught. We're more interested in finding someone with the aptitude, work habits, and hunger to learn them. Core Competencies There isn't one personality type that makes a great SDR. We're looking for someone who can stay consistent through high call volume and real rejection, call after call. Hungry: Genuinely motivated by the idea that your results determine your earnings Coachable: You welcome feedback and put it into practice Curious: You ask questions and want to understand the "why" Resilient: You can handle repeated "no's" without losing energy or focus Detail-oriented: You understand that good CRM data and documentation matter Consistent: You're comfortable with the repetition required to get great at outbound Disciplined: You can follow a defined process closely before trying to reinvent it Comfortable on the phone: Outbound calling is the core of this position How You'll Work You’ll receive structured onboarding, along with: Targeted prospect lists CRM note templates Call frameworks An AI-powered resource hub for first-line support Direct coaching You’ll be expected to work within our established process while sharing what you’re hearing from prospects. As you develop, we want you to become someone who helps us improve the system — not simply operate it. Where This Role Can Lead This position is a starting point, not a ceiling. As you demonstrate mastery and take on greater responsibility, there's real opportunity for advancement — including into roles such as: Inside Sales Representative Webinar hosting and presentations Onboarding Specialist Compensation grows alongside responsibility as you take on more. There's no fixed timeline for this - it's earned through demonstrated performance, not tenure. How You're Paid You’ll earn a base salary of $45,000 plus commission. Commission is tied to converted webinar attendees - leads you book who attend and go on to become clients - not to sign-ups or attendance alone. This keeps your incentives aligned with real business outcomes, not just activity.

You’ll be joining a sales organization that believes good systems should make great people better. We're not hiring someone to reinvent our outbound strategy on day one.
