JOB OVERVIEW

Small-Business Sales & Business Development – Australian social media and AI services (independent contractor)

We are a small Australian business that builds practical, AI-powered services for other businesses. We have services that work, and we need someone who loves selling to help more businesses find them.

This is a long-term independent contractor engagement, remote from the Philippines.

WHAT YOU WOULD SELL

1. An online social media posting service (main focus): a done-for-you service for Australian small businesses. We capture the owner's own voice and post regularly for them, so their business stays visible without them having to find the time.
2. AI and automation services (second focus): we help established Australian businesses (usually 10 or more office staff) remove repetitive admin work using AI and automation. Here your job is to find and qualify good prospects and book a conversation with our founder, who handles the detailed discussion and closes the deal.

WHAT THE WORK INVOLVES

- finding Australian small businesses that would genuinely benefit, and the right person to talk to;
- contacting them by message, email, LinkedIn and phone, and following up intelligently;
- explaining the posting service simply and honestly, handling questions and objections, and signing up clients;
- qualifying AI-services prospects and booking calls with the founder;
- keeping accurate records of every prospect and conversation; and
- telling us what you hear from the market, so we can improve the offer and the targeting.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

- you genuinely enjoy selling and have done it successfully: you can show deals you closed yourself, not just calls made;
- excellent spoken and written English, comfortable talking with Australian business owners;
- experience selling to small-business owners (Australian or US) is highly desirable;
- good judgement: you can tell a real prospect from a waste of time, and say why; and
- organised and persistent with follow-up.

We are not looking for someone who runs their own agency or juggles several clients. We want someone who wants to build something with us over the long term.

FEES

US$4.50 per hour (about PHP 48,000 a month at around 40 hours a week), plus success fees for clients you bring in who sign up and pay. There are no targets in the first month while we learn together what works. You are an independent contractor: you choose when and how you work, and you invoice weekly for the work done.

HOW TO APPLY

Start your application with the words SELL WHAT WE BUILD, then answer each question below. Applications that don't answer the questions will not be considered.

1. Describe your sales experience: what you sold, to whom, your exact part (finding prospects, booking meetings, closing), and your results with numbers.
2. Describe one deal you closed yourself with a small-business owner: what they bought, the price, how long it took, and what made them say yes.
3. A café owner tells you: "I post on Facebook myself when I get time." What do you say next, and why?
4. How would you find an established Australian business (10+ office staff) that might benefit from automating admin work, and who in that business would you contact?
5. Tell us about a time your sales approach wasn't working and you changed it. What did you change, and what happened?
6. Your DISC profile as four numbers that add up to 100, in the order D / I / S / C (for example 30 / 25 / 20 / 25).
7. Your CV, your availability, and confirmation that you're comfortable working as an independent contractor from the Philippines.

Shortlisted applicants will be asked for a short voice recording and invited to a PAID practical exercise.
