**Relaxed Work Environment | Inbound Calls Only | Long-Term, Stable Weekend Position**
**Imagine getting paid to work from home, sit comfortably at your computer, and handle a relatively small number of incoming calls throughout the day.**
That's exactly what we're offering!
Power Sales University is an established national sales training company, and we're looking for three dependable, friendly, articulate people to join our weekend inbound call center team.
This is an ideal position for someone who enjoys a relaxed work environment, is comfortable at a computer, and can turn on their best professional telephone voice the moment the phone rings.
**Here's what makes this opportunity different:**
- **$17 per hour plus performance bonuses.**
- **Work from home.** No commute, no office.
- **Inbound calls only.** Absolutely no cold calling.
- **Light call volume.** Our weekends typically receive approximately 29 calls on Saturday and 22 on Sunday, shared across three employees. That averages roughly 7–10 calls per person per day, although call volume varies and calls can arrive simultaneously.
- **Short conversations.** Most calls take approximately 5–7 minutes.
- **Relaxed downtime.** When the phones are quiet, you're welcome to read, study, browse the internet, or handle other quiet personal computer activities, provided you remain at your workstation and immediately available to answer.
- **Long-term employment.** We're looking for people who want a stable weekend position for years, not just a temporary job.
- **Paid training and ongoing support.** We'll teach you exactly what to say and how to say it.
## WHAT YOU'LL ACTUALLY BE DOING
We advertise our sales training programs on radio stations across the country.
People hear our advertisements and call us to receive a complimentary video sales training program.
Your job is simple:
**First:** Answer their call promptly, welcome them, and help them receive the free video training they've requested.
**Second:** Follow our proven, word-for-word telephone script to explain the benefits of an additional complimentary implementation call, where we'll show them how to put the training into practice.
**Third:** If someone hesitates or raises an objection, we'll train you to respond naturally and confidently using our proven scripts and rebuttals.
This is approximately **90% customer service and 10% gentle, persuasive appointment setting.**
You're not selling a product over the telephone or taking payments. You're helping callers understand the additional value of scheduling a free implementation appointment.
And when you're successful at booking qualified appointments, **you can earn an additional performance bonus based on your booking percentage.**
## ONE VERY IMPORTANT REQUIREMENT: ANSWER ON THE FIRST RING!
This is a relaxed position, but there is one responsibility we take extremely seriously.
**When the phone rings, you must be ready to answer it immediately—on the first ring whenever you're available.**
You cannot walk away from your computer, leave your headset unattended, or get distracted by other activities during your scheduled working time.
You are welcome to enjoy the downtime. We aren't interested in micromanaging what you're doing between calls.
But when a call comes in, we expect your immediate attention.
Our phone system allows us to monitor incoming calls, response times, missed calls, appointment-booking results, and script adherence. We also review recorded calls for quality and coaching.
We believe in trusting our employees and recognizing excellent performance. The monitoring simply helps us maintain our high service standards and support you in doing a great job.
## THE SECOND REQUIREMENT: FOLLOW THE SCRIPT WORD FOR WORD
We provide an established telephone script that has been carefully written and tested.
**You must read it word for word, without improvising, skipping sections, or changing the language.**
However, there's an art to doing this well.
Think of a great television newscaster: they read prepared words, but they sound completely natural, conversational, confident, and engaging.
That's the talent we're looking for.
**No robotic voices!**
If you can read a script and make it sound like you're having a friendly, spontaneous conversation, you'll have a major advantage in this position.
## WEEKEND SHIFTS AVAILABLE
All times are Eastern Time. Each shift is nine hours, including a one-hour unpaid lunch, for eight paid working hours.
**SATURDAY**
| Shift | Working hours | Lunch |
| A | 7 AM–4 PM | 11 AM–12 PM |
| B | 9 AM–6 PM | 12 PM–1 PM |
| C | 10 AM–7 PM | 3 PM–4 PM |
**SUNDAY**
| Shift | Working hours | Lunch |
| A | 9 AM–6 PM | 11 AM–12 PM |
| B | 9 AM–6 PM | 12 PM–1 PM |
| C | 10 AM–7 PM | 5 PM–6 PM |
Let us know which shifts work best for your availability. We'll coordinate assignments based on the needs of the team. Candidates available consistently on both Saturday and Sunday are preferred.
Lunches are staggered so employees can take a full, uninterrupted break while the phones remain staffed.
## WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
You're likely an excellent fit if you:
- Are extremely reliable, punctual, and dependable.
- Have a pleasant, professional, friendly telephone voice.
- Can read prepared scripts naturally without sounding robotic.
- Are comfortable following instructions precisely.
- Enjoy speaking with people and can handle simple objections confidently.
- Have a reliable computer, high-speed internet, and a quality headset.
- Have a quiet workspace without background noise.
- Can remain at your computer throughout your working shift, except during scheduled breaks.
- Want a steady, long-term weekend position.
Previous call-center, receptionist, customer service, appointment-setting, or telephone sales experience is helpful, but we care more about your voice, reliability, and ability to follow the script.
## COMPENSATION
**$17 per hour + performance bonuses**
Eight paid hours per shift, with a separate one-hour unpaid lunch.
A typical two-day weekend earns **$272 in base pay**, plus any earned bonuses.
We'll explain the performance bonus program during the interview. Bonuses reward strong qualified appointment-booking percentages while maintaining our customer-service standards.
## IMPORTANT — HOW TO APPLY (PLEASE READ CAREFULLY)
We expect a large number of applicants, so we've created a simple application process.
**To be considered, please submit BOTH:**
1. **Your résumé.**
2. **A short voice recording (approximately one minute)** of yourself reading the script below.
### YOUR VOICE RECORDING SCRIPT — READ EXACTLY AS WRITTEN
**"Hello, my name is ______, are you calling to get your FREE sales video program, 3 Ways to Double Closing Ratios in 90 Days?"**
**"Great, and are you the Owner of a business, Part Owner, President, CEO, or if not, what's your position with the company?"**
*Sample caller response: "Owner"*
**"Great, then you qualify for the free video training program, and the free implementation call to show you how maximize your results."**
**"As you know, implementation is the key. And that's why we're going to set you up with a brief, private, one-on-one implementation call with one of our support team members, to help you with implementation, so you get results. This will be done over your computer using Zoom and will last for about 60 minutes."**
*For your recording, read only the representative's lines. Use your first name in the opening. When you reach the sample caller's response, pause briefly as though someone has answered "Owner," then continue.*
### HERE'S WHAT WE'RE LISTENING FOR
We want you to sound friendly, confident, conversational, and genuinely interested in helping the caller.
**Think professional newscaster, not robot.**
Read the script exactly as written. Don't change or skip any words. Make it sound as though you're speaking naturally to a real person.
You can record this using the Voice Memos app on your phone or any basic audio recording software. Attach your recording along with your résumé when you reply to job posting.
In your application, also tell us:
1. Which Saturday and Sunday shifts you're available to work.
2. Your previous telephone, customer service, or appointment-setting experience.
3. Why you believe you'd be especially good at reading a script naturally and conversationally.
4. Whether you're looking for stable, long-term weekend employment.
**Applications without both a résumé and voice recording will not be considered, except where an accessibility accommodation is needed.**
We look forward to hearing you!
If you want a relaxed, stable, work-from-home weekend position—and you're the kind of person who takes answering a ringing telephone seriously—we'd like to hear from you!
