JOB OVERVIEW

We're a small US software company near Seattle, hiring 1 remote caller, starting with a paid two-week trial.

Hours: Full-time, 7-8 hours per day, Monday-Friday, US Pacific business hours (overnight in the Philippines).
Pay: Base plus commission on every paid setup. A good performer earns around $1,000/month all-in. Paid two-week trial to start.

WHAT WE DO
We make an AI phone receptionist for small trade businesses: plumbers, painters, electricians, HVAC. When the owner is on a job and can't answer, the AI answers as their company, takes the caller's name and number, and promises a callback. It's built from the customer's own website in minutes. Plans are $50-150/month.

WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Call locally owned trade businesses in the US (we start with plumbers in Portland, Oregon) from our calling system. You'll ramp from 40 to 60 to 80 dials a day over the first weeks. Most calls hit voicemail. The ones that connect get your full attention.
- Run a short, honest opening (we don't hide that it's a cold call), ask one real question, and listen.
- Offer a live demo: you bring the AI receptionist into the call and the owner hears her answering as their own company. The demo does most of the selling.
- Close to a paid start: a $100 setup fee that includes the first month of service. Send the payment link, confirm it went through, log the call.
- Log every dial honestly in our system. We review call recordings every day.
- Work directly with the founder. Daily 15-minute coaching call in the first weeks, then a few times a week.

WHAT WE NEED
- Real outbound cold-calling or appointment-setting experience for US or English-speaking clients. Tell us your numbers: dials per day, connects, appointments or sales.
- Clear, warm, unhurried spoken English. Clarity matters more than accent.
- Someone who listens. This job is not reading a script at people.
- Coachable. We give one note, you change it on the next call.
- Honest. Every disposition you log gets checked against recordings. If that sounds fair to you, you're our kind of person.
- Reliable at US Pacific hours from a quiet room, with a headset and stable internet.
- Comfortable with a dialer, a simple CRM-style tool, and conferencing a third party into a call.

NOT A FIT
- If you advertise 200+ dials a day, this isn't the job. That's robo-dialing, not selling.
- If most of your experience is consumer telemarketing (insurance leads, timeshares), it's probably not a fit. We call business owners.
- If you need a script for every sentence.

HOW TO APPLY (REQUIRED)
1. A 60-second voice recording, sent as a Google Drive or Vocaroo link. Read this cold, then talk for 30 seconds about the last thing you sold and how:
"Hi, is this Mike? My name is [your name]. I'll be straight with you, this is a cold call. I'm calling plumbers because most plumbers lose money every week when calls hit voicemail, and we built a fix for it. Can I ask you one question?"
2. Your last cold-calling role with numbers: dials per day, connect rate, what you sold, how long you stayed, why you left.
3. Confirm you can work US Pacific hours and describe your setup (room, headset, internet).

Applications without the voice recording won't be reviewed.

HOW IT WORKS
We start with a paid two-week trial on a real list with real tools. If you dial consistently, listen, log honestly, and take coaching, the real role starts, month to month.
