About the Position

SDRs are the first live face or voice of our brand – so we are looking for a seasoned, obsessively detail oriented, and technology savvy professional who demonstrates exceptional active listening and communication skills. In joining our rapidly growing local government SaaS startup you will need to become immersed in the short-term vacation rental phenomenon so you can quickly talk to it’s challenges to city leaders across North America. Your proficiency in Salesforce and online research will allow you to quickly find and identify the decision makers of municipalities to speak to.

You’ll be working with a team of SDRs and driving execution of marketing designed campaigns, making A LOT of phone calls (40-60 or more per day) and sending tons of emails, following up promptly when planners, code enforcement, tax collectors or city managers inquire about our services. If the lead is qualified, you’ll then book a meeting for our Account Executives to go over the services and purchasing steps in greater detail. At this time, you’ll then log the appropriate tasks in the system and carry on with your call list.

You’ll also provide feedback to the SDR Lead on what is working and what needs improvement, whether related to the call down lists, messaging and systems to improve the team’s success.
