• Make a tangible impact by helping businesses amplify their brand through strategic branded content solutions.
• Be part of India’s top startup media platform and contribute to the next wave of startup success stories.
What You’ll Do
A. Sales & Market Expansion
• Develop and maintain a robust pipeline of prospects across early-stage startups and high-growth businesses.
• Drive B2B revenue generation by identifying and closing new business opportunities in untapped markets.
• Execute a consultative sales approach, ensuring tailored solutions for clients instead of push selling.
• Manage inbound leads and proactively reach out to potential clients in new industries and geographies.
B. Account Management & Relationship Building
• Own and drive long-term relationships with clients to ensure sustained revenue contribution.
• Work with internal teams to conceptualize and execute client deliverables.
• Identify upselling and cross-selling opportunities to maximize account value.
C. Sales Strategy & Market Intelligence
• Keep a constant pulse on market shifts, competitor movements, and emerging client needs to refine sales strategy.
• Use data and insights to inform go-to-market decisions and feedback to product, content, and marketing teams.
• Take ownership of feedback loops, reporting, and forecasting with attention to detail and a bias for action.
Who We’re Looking For
• 1–3 years of proven B2B sales experience, ideally in high-growth environments like edtech, gaming, media, or digital agencies.
• A bachelor’s degree in business, marketing, communications, or a related field; a master’s degree would be preferred.
• Prior experience selling to startups and SMEs/SMBs/MSMEs is a strong advantage.
• High level of ownership and initiative — you don’t wait for directions; you make things happen.
• Strong consultative selling skills with excellent written and verbal communication.
• Demonstrated ability to build and manage a sales pipeline, backed by sharp research and lead-gen skills.
• Comfortable with ambiguity, context-switching, and operating at speed — typical of fast-moving startup environments.
• Proficient in Excel, CRM tools (HubSpot, Salesforce, etc.), and decision-making backed by data and insight.
If you’re a go-getter with a knack for B2B sales and market expansion, we’d love to hear from you!
