Job description

At Slick, a DaySmart company, we have built a smart booking platform and digital business partner for salons and barbers — revolutionizing how industry professionals use technology to streamline their workflow and elevate the client experience.

Today, 65% of salons still run on pen and paper and only 10% of bookings are made online. Compare that to how you book a taxi, a hotel, or a restaurant. The beauty sector has yet to be truly transformed by technology — and that is exactly our mission.

Backed by L'Oréal and now making our US market debut, this is a ground-floor opportunity to help shape that transformation.

As our Sales Development Representative, you'll be the first line of offense in our sales machine. You'll source new business opportunities, master cold outreach, book qualified demos, and help convert self-signup customers into paying accounts. Your efforts directly enable our Account Executives to close more deals. Beyond driving pipeline, you'll be our ears on the ground—capturing critical feedback from prospects about product gaps, competitive threats, and market opportunities. You'll combine sales hustle with product thinking to drive both revenue and product improvements.

This is a commission-based role with significant upside for top performers. Successfully demonstrating quota attainment opens doors to career growth.

Salary Range

• This role offers a $45,000 annual base salary, plus $30,000 in target commission, for total on-target earnings (OTE) of $75,000. Commission is uncapped, providing additional earning potential for exceeding performance goals.
