Job description

Help an Indian software agency win clients in Europe, the UK and the US: research prospects, write outreach that gets replies, and book calls for the founder. This is a full-time internship (48 hours a week, Monday to Saturday), remote or in Lucknow.

What you'll do

• Research and qualify prospects (LinkedIn, company sites, job boards) in our niches
• Write personalised outreach and proposals on Upwork, LinkedIn and email
• Keep the lead pipeline in our portal up to date and follow up on time
• Join discovery calls, take notes, and help turn conversations into scoped proposals
• Track what works: reply rates, meetings booked, deals won

What you'll get

• A paid monthly stipend
• Real work on live products (alokknight.com, SmartLandlord) and on client projects — not practice tasks
• Direct mentorship from the founder, a senior engineer who built and runs a SaaS live in 7 European markets
• Internship certificate and a letter of recommendation on successful completion
• A full-time offer for the strongest performers
• Full-time internship, 48 hours a week, Monday to Saturday, for 3–6 months — remote or from our Lucknow office. Treat it as a real job: you own real deliverables with real deadlines

How we hire

• Excellent written English — clear, short, and nothing that reads like a template
• Curiosity about software: you can explain what a SaaS MVP or an AI chatbot is to a business owner
• Organised and persistent; comfortable with rejection
• Any background welcome — BBA, MBA, commerce, engineering
• Available full-time for 3–6 months: 48 hours a week, Monday to Saturday

Nice to have

• LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Upwork or cold-email tools
• A second European language — German is a plus
• Previous internship in sales or customer success
