About the Role

We're looking for a highly motivated Appointment Setter / BDR to join our growing team. This role is focused on high-volume outbound calling and appointment scheduling, with secondary responsibilities in chatbot management and email/chat communication. You'll work closely with the CEO to support outreach efforts and help fill the pipeline with qualified meetings.

This is not a traditional BDR role – the primary focus is cold calling (100 calls/day) and managing initial contact points with leads.

Key Responsibilities
  • Make 100+ outbound cold calls per day to U.S.-based leads
  • Set qualified appointments for the sales team
  • Manage inbound chatbot interactions and escalate as needed
  • Respond to emails and messages with professionalism and clarity
  • Log all activities and notes in our CRM (HubSpot)
  • Collaborate with the team for continuous improvements in messaging and conversion
  • Provide regular updates on call stats, performance, and feedback from prospects
Ideal Candidate
  • 2–3 years experience in outbound calling, appointment setting, or BDR-related roles
  • Prior exposure to U.S.-based clientele is a must
  • Based in South Africa for timezone alignment and communication style
  • Resilient and self-motivated – not easily discouraged by rejection
  • Clear communicator (both verbal and written) with excellent English fluency
  • Comfortable being accountable for daily KPIs and working independently
  • Strong work ethic and professional demeanor
  • Stable work history with no frequent job-hopping
Preferred but Not Required
  • Experience with HubSpot CRM
  • Familiarity with Google Workspace (Gmail, Chat, Calendar)
  • Typing speed and accuracy (to be assessed during pre-screening)
  • Willingness to grow into additional responsibilities over time

    **Candidates must have a stable internet connection and a reliable backup power supply
