However, this is not a role where you sit and wait for the company to give you customers.
Rapid Hire may provide leads periodically, but representatives are expected to be capable of creating their own opportunities through prospecting and outreach.
You should be comfortable finding potential customers, starting conversations and following up without someone constantly telling you what to do.
We are looking for people who can say:
"Give me the tools and I'll make something happen."

Previous sales experience is an advantage, but not essential.
We are interested in your ability to communicate, learn, prospect and sell.
WORKING HOURS
The position requires:

Your agreed working schedule will be confirmed when you are appointed.
You will use digital time-tracking software to clock in and out.

The purpose is not to unnecessarily micromanage employees.
We want a simple system that gives everyone accountability and allows us to focus on what matters:
Activity. Consistency. Sales. Results.
SYSTEMS YOU WILL USE
Rapid Hire will use simple digital tools to manage the sales operation.
CRM
You will use our CRM to record:
- Prospects
- Customer conversations
- Follow-ups
- Interested customers
- Offers
- Completed sales
WhatsApp Business
WhatsApp will be one of the primary communication channels used to communicate with customers and prospects.
Experience with LinkedIn prospecting is highly advantageous, as LinkedIn will be one of the key platforms used to identify and engage potential customers.
Time Tracking
You will clock in and clock out digitally.
Sales Tracking
Your completed sales and commission will be recorded so that your earnings can be accurately calculated.
