• Calendar Management & Appointment Scheduling: Coordinate and book qualified discovery calls and strategy sessions between prospects and our Sales Team, handling time zone differences across US regions and managing no-shows through confirmation sequences
• Compelling Personalized Messaging: Craft outreach messages that highlight specific pain points relevant to each prospect—inefficient digital presence, outdated marketing strategies, lack of automation, CRM implementation challenges
• CRM & Pipeline Management: Maintain meticulous records of all prospecting activity, engagement metrics, and lead progression in our CRM; ensure accurate pipeline data for sales reporting and forecasting
• Objection Handling & Persistence: Navigate common objections with professionalism and persistence, understanding that SMB decision-makers often need multiple touches before committing to meetings

• Advanced LinkedIn sales navigation proficiency: Hands-on experience using LinkedIn Sales Navigator, writing effective connection requests, and leveraging social selling for prospect warming
• Strong web research and prospect identification skills: Ability to identify decision-makers, analyze company websites, research buying signals, and build targeted prospect lists without relying on purchased lists
• Excellent written and verbal communication: Clear, professional communication style capable of adapting messaging to different prospect seniority levels and pain points
• CRM proficiency: Demonstrated experience with CRM platforms (HubSpot, Salesforce, Pipedrive, Zoho) for activity logging, pipeline management, and sales reporting
• US Business Market Knowledge: Understanding of US business culture, time zones, professional norms, and B2B decision-making processes for small and medium enterprises
• Self-motivated and results-driven: Ability to work independently in a remote environment, manage multiple outreach campaigns simultaneously, and maintain high activity levels with persistence
