The Role
We’re looking for an experienced, highly driven Business Development Representative (BDR) who thrives in a fast-paced, high-volume outbound sales environment.
This is a phone-heavy role, and cold calling will be a core part of your day. You’ll be expected to confidently complete 80+ cold calls per day, engage decision-makers, qualify opportunities, overcome objections, and book high-quality meetings for the sales team.
If you have strong outbound sales experience, are comfortable spending a significant portion of your day on the phone, and know how to turn cold conversations into qualified opportunities, we want to hear from you.
Experience conducting client-facing sales demos or product demonstrations is a strong bonus.
Key Responsibilities
- Make 80+ outbound cold calls every day to prospective customers.
- Prospect and engage potential clients through phone, email, LinkedIn, and other outbound channels.
- Identify and qualify decision-makers based on defined target customer criteria.
- Generate qualified sales opportunities and consistently book meetings for the sales team.
- Confidently handle objections, gatekeepers, and cold prospects.
- Maintain a strong understanding of the company's offering and communicate its value clearly.
- Conduct discovery conversations to understand prospects' needs, challenges, and buying potential.
- Maintain accurate prospecting activity, notes, follow-ups, and pipeline data within the CRM.
- Consistently work toward individual and team KPIs, including call volume, conversations, meetings booked, and qualified opportunities.
- Collaborate closely with Account Executives and other sales team members to improve messaging and conversion rates.
- Where applicable, support or conduct client-facing product demos and sales presentations.
Requirements
- 3–4+ years of experience in Business Development, Sales Development, outbound sales, or a similar B2B sales role.
- Proven high-volume cold-calling experience is essential.
- Demonstrated ability to consistently complete 80+ outbound calls per day.
- Strong telephone presence with excellent verbal communication and active listening skills.
- Proven experience generating leads and booking qualified sales meetings.
- Strong objection-handling, qualification, and follow-up skills.
- Comfortable working toward ambitious activity and performance targets.
- Experience using CRM and sales prospecting tools.
- Excellent written and spoken English.
- Highly organized, self-motivated, resilient, and comfortable working independently in a remote environment.
- Experience conducting sales demos or client-facing product demonstrations is a bonus.
