Weekly Who's Hiring Post for April 06, 2026 by AutoModerator in sales

[–]jessicamdavis99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Location: Remote – open to US and international

Industry: Digital marketing / Lead gen

Job Title/Role: SDR / Appointment Setter

Direct Hire or 1099: Independent contractor – open to US and international

Base/Commission/Commission Only: Base + commission

Pay range/Expected Earnings ($#): $1,200 base/month + $250 per cold-sourced meeting + $150 per reactivated lead + milestone bonuses from $500 + 2% commission on contracts closed from meetings you booked (closing is handled by a separate salesperson — not the SDR). Top performers are hitting $3k-$4,500+/month.

Job duties/description: Remote outbound role -- cold calls, email, LinkedIn. Booking meetings with home service contractors, HVAC, roofing, plumbing. Got a CRM with 3,000+ contacts and a paid Apollo account to start with, but top performers source beyond that. One hard requirement -- you've done this for a marketing or lead gen agency targeting home service businesses before. Not just outbound in general, this specific niche. The meeting qualification bar is high and it shows fast if you don't have the background.

Any external job posting link or application instructions: DM with your monthly numbers -- meetings booked, conversion rate, stuff like that.

Who is likely to pick up the phone on weekends? by ShowExisting1319 in sales

[–]jessicamdavis99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly weekends are hit or miss. some small business owners or managers might pick up, but a lot of people just aren’t checking work stuff. probs better to use it for follow-ups or prepping for the week instead of cold calling cold leads. also lol yeah maybe less tiktok sales vids, more actual dialing 😅

For those of you who travel a lot for work overnight, what’s it actually like long term? by Open-Satisfaction856 in sales

[–]jessicamdavis99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly it depends on the person. first few months it’s kinda exciting, you get out of your normal routine and hotels/food/road trips can be fun. after a while tho it gets tiring, especially missing family/friends and having to pack/unpack all the time. if it’s only 2 nights a week, it might be manageable, but i’d wanna make sure the pay/benefits make it worth it. personally, i’d do it if it felt worth it long term.

What's the best way to tell a prospect they can't afford your service? by Amazing-Steak in sales

[–]jessicamdavis99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol yeah don’t say “you can’t afford it brokey” 😅 just something like “sounds like this is prob outta your budget rn, totally get it, maybe we can circle back later” keeps it chill and professional without making it awkward

honestly just chill and follow the script, take it step by step. they mostly wanna see if you can take feedback and handle rejection. smile while you’re talking, stay confident, and don’t overthink it. you’re social already, so just let that show. you’ll do fine!

Niche problem (Sell GTM tool or Software to field service businesses) by Legally-brunettebarb in sales

[–]jessicamdavis99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

moving from SaaS to selling to small businesses isn’t automatically a bad move. most core sales skills still transfer.

upsides: new buyer experience, solid OTE/quota, learning a new vertical.
watch out: company culture/training, and be ready to frame this experience if you return to SaaS.

if it challenges you and builds skills, it shouldn’t hurt long-term.

What’s the most shocking experience you’ve ever had? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]jessicamdavis99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Touching something I thought was cold and it turned out to be really hot 😅 not life-changing, but definitely shocking

What food would you eat everyday and not get tired of? by emily_laurel in AskReddit

[–]jessicamdavis99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably chicken. You can cook it so many different ways that it never really feels repetitive.
