About Bookday

Bookday is an early-stage SaaS helping independent fitness & wellness studios manage bookings, payments, memberships and their day-to-day operations.

I'm the founder and I'm looking for someone to work directly with me on growing Bookday, with a strong focus on outbound sales — especially in the US and other English-speaking markets.

We're still small and early-stage, so this is a hands-on startup internship. You'll have a lot of autonomy, try things, talk to customers, and see directly what works and what doesn't.

What you'll actually do

The core of the role is simple: find potential customers, pick up the phone, and start conversations.

You'll:

• Make a high volume of cold calls to studio owners
• Reach out through email, Instagram and LinkedIn
• Qualify prospects and book demos
• Follow up consistently
• Keep the CRM and pipeline organized
• Test different scripts, messages and approaches
• Share what you're hearing from the market: objections, competitors, pricing, etc.

This is a sales-heavy role . If you dislike cold calling, this probably isn't the right internship.

Who I'm looking for

Experience matters less than attitude.

You might be a good fit if you're:

• Very comfortable talking to people
• Not afraid of making lots of cold calls
• Energetic and persistent
• Resourceful — you figure things out rather than waiting for instructions
• Interested in startups / entrepreneurship
• Comfortable working independently
• Fluent or near-native in English

You don't need previous SaaS or sales experience.

Internship format

A few important details, especially for international applicants:

• Start: ASAP
• Duration: ideally 6 months
• Commitment: full-time internship — this is not a summer internship or a few hours per week
• Location: fully remote possible;
• Compensation: French statutory internship compensation (around €680/month) if in France
• International applicants: welcome

For a French internship, you'll generally need to be enrolled in a school/university that can provide an internship agreement ("convention de stage")

If that isn't possible and you're legally able to work as an independent contractor from your country, we can also discuss a contractor setup.

How to apply

No cover letter needed — actually, please don't send one :)

Instead, send your CV / LinkedIn + a short voice note in English (2–5 minutes total) or a video . Nothing polished or overprepared — I'd much rather get a feel for who you are and how you naturally communicate.

Tell me:

• A bit about yourself, what you're doing right now, and what you're looking for over the next 6 months
• Whether you genuinely see yourself spending a good part of your day cold calling / DMing studio owners , in a very early-stage startup with little structure
• Something you've done that you're proud of — doesn't have to be professional
• A startup, entrepreneur or product you've discovered recently that you find interesting, and why
• When you could start, how long you're available for, and whether you can commit full-time
• And just confirm that you've seen the ~€680/month internship compensation mentioned above and that it works for you

Short, honest and spontaneous answers are perfect. xhyhwjd

Voice note or video preferred: LinkedIn (Emmanuel Bellity) or WhatsApp at or email

LinkedIn limits voice messages to 1 minute each, so feel free to send several in a row.

Remote working/work at home options are available for this role.
