Then we setup a small team of BDR & AE and were thankfully able to replicate our initial success . We're now at a point where we've grown 10X in the past 1 year through the efforts of the founder and small sales team we built. We initially tested out Outbound prospecting ourselves to validate if there’s even a possibility to scale the efforts on this. Our initial results from Outbound prospecting have been nothing less than promising. Cold calling and LinkedIn are the top two channels that have shown great promising results for us. So, it’s time now to scale our BDR efforts and we’re looking to hire 2 smart, high energetic BDRs to flood our sales pipeline through their Outbound prospecting efforts. What you'll do Tl;dr dial & write to your prospects using all the left out creativity within you and build a strong $$$ pipeline from top Named Accounts . But since job descriptions are supposed to be serious stuff, feel free to read on Your day-to-day would involve talking to e-commerce business owners globally, understanding their problems & helping them understand how our product improves their lives. You’ll be responsible for the prospecting piece of sales funnel from generating leads to building pipeline. But, don’t worry, you will be measured only on SQLs, not pipeline. We recognise that this is not in your control. Writing creative cold emails/Linkedin messages which truly break through the noise (we've tried some wacky stuff in the past, we take this a little overboard) Playing the role of a trusted product advisor over cold calls to show prospects how our product improves their lives What makes you a good fit Your childhood dream was to sell ice to an eskimo (brownie points if you've tried it). You have 1+ years of experience doing high volume outbounds to generate SQLs & building a pipeline for the AEs/closing deals at an SMB SaaS startup (this is not a hard requirement); You have stories of selling stuff to people (this could even be concert tickets, sports cards or something you made) You have a way with words and have a collection of the best cold emails you've seen and written You have a genuine interest in conversations with people Salary and Location Location: Bangalore Expected CTC: We pay top of market for the right folks and also offer generous equity (ESOP) to everyone in the team Our Way Of Life Over time we’ve realised that while we’re super excited about shaping the future of commerce, a big part of why people join us and stick with us is because they resonate with our way of life. You could call it work culture - but it ends up becoming more than just that. It’s taken us time to discover and articulate what our culture feels like, this evolving document is an attempt to candidly share what it’s like working at BiteSpeed - https://www.notion.so/bitespeed/Way-Of-Life-At-BiteSpeed-44d9b9614d9641419da910189b1e9f8e Our Purpose At BiteSpeed, work is personal. You could blame this on us being existential, but most of us are spending the best years of our lives doing this and we want to be purposeful about the kind of workplace we’re trying to create. Our purpose is about why we’re here and what we care about:- Personal Transformation Wealth Creation Winning Together Our Values Our values are about how we do what we do. Values define the right thing to do. We hire, reward and sometimes have to let go based on our values.

Our offsites range from intense quarter planning sessions to crazy mafia nights and competitive cricket matches (with a lot of trash talking) Cult Fitness Membership - All work and no play makes jack a dull boy. Cult Fit and Cult Play passes to make sure we hit the gym more often Personal Development - We sponsor courses, conference tickets, books on a case to case basis to ensure we’re constantly growing Unlimited Leaves - We trust people to make good decisions on when they need a break and for how long (leave management systems are expensive, but that’s a separate discussion) Salary In Advance - Trust first, by default.
