Role Summary

We’re looking for a scrappy, hands-on Sales Operations Specialist with a proactive, entrepreneurial spirit. If you thrive in fast-paced startup environments, can wear many hats, and aren’t afraid to do the groundwork, this role is for you. As the frontline of Client, you’ll identify and connect with potential hosts, gather market insights, and drive new business by developing strategies and executing grassroots outreach. 

Key Responsibilities

Proactive Market Engagement: Conduct market visits and on-the-ground assessments to evaluate listings, benchmark competitors / accommodations, and provide actionable insights for strategic planning. 

Outbound Sales & Playbook Building: Execute cold outreach to prospective and churned hosts. Develop and iterate on sales strategies, pitches, and scalable playbooks, incorporating real-time feedback to drive impact.

Digital & Community Ops: Actively participate in neighborhood-level social groups, digital forums, and local communities to identify and engage potential hosts and influencers. Foster relationships with industry professionals, organizers, and local leaders to find high-leverage opportunities.

Cross-functional Collaboration & Leadership: Partner closely with Sales and Marketing teams to test pitches and refine messaging based on real-time feedback.

Ideal Experience

Startup Experience: Prior roles in fast-paced, growth-focused environments; comfortable operating with ambiguity and limited resources.

Sales Expertise: Proven background in outbound sales or grassroots operations, with a track record of successful cold outreach and business development. Experience building or executing sales strategies for multi-sided marketplaces or direct-to-consumer businesses. Note: SaaS sales backgrounds are not a fit for this role. 

Industry Experience (A Plus): Real estate, hospitality, or similar / adjacent industries.

• Highly organized and able to manage multiple conversations and priorities
