Account Executive — Remote Sales
100% Remote | US-Based | Base + Uncapped Commission | No Cold Calling
|| About SiteSwan ||
SiteSwan helps everyday people start, grow, and scale their own web design businesses.
Often described as a “Web Design Business-in-a-Box,” our platform gives aspiring and established entrepreneurs everything they need to sell websites to small businesses—including our proprietary website-building software, training, sales tools, marketing resources, and personalized support.
|| The Opportunity ||
Love selling, but hate prospecting?
We're looking for an experienced Account Executive to help us convert a steady stream of inbound leads into SiteSwan customers.
There is no cold calling in this role.
You'll be working with people who have already expressed interest in SiteSwan and the opportunity to start or grow their own web design business. You’ll have access to 1,000 - 1,500 inbound leads per month, giving you a consistent pipeline of prospects to work with.
Your job is to connect with these leads quickly, understand what they're looking to accomplish, explain how SiteSwan can help, follow up diligently, overcome objections, and ultimately close deals.
|| What You'll Do ||
• Manage and prioritize a high volume of inbound leads.
• Speak with prospective customers by phone and explain the SiteSwan platform and business opportunity.
• Use our proven sales process and scripts while bringing your own personality and sales experience to every conversation.
• Ask good questions, listen carefully, identify prospects' goals, and clearly communicate how SiteSwan can help.
• Consistently follow up with prospects and move opportunities through the sales pipeline.
• Overcome objections confidently without being overly aggressive or pushy.
• Maintain detailed and accurate notes, activities, and follow-ups in our CRM.
• Meet and exceed monthly sales goals.
• Collaborate with our team to continually improve our sales process, messaging, and results.
|| What We're Looking For ||
You should be:
• Experienced in high-volume sales, preferably selling to small businesses, entrepreneurs, or consumers.
• Able to demonstrate a history of consistently meeting or exceeding sales quotas.
• Confident, personable, and persuasive on the phone.
• A great listener who asks thoughtful questions instead of simply delivering a pitch.
• Highly organized and disciplined with follow-up.
• Comfortable working inside a CRM and following an established sales process.
• Competitive and motivated by goals, results, and earning potential.
• Coachable and receptive to feedback.
• Able to think on your feet and adapt to different personalities and situations.
• Self-motivated and capable of being highly productive while working remotely.
• A team player who is easy to work with and genuinely wants the company and our customers to succeed.
Bonus Points
- Experience selling SaaS, digital marketing, websites, advertising, business opportunities, or services to small businesses and entrepreneurs is a plus.
- Familiarity with web design or local marketing is helpful, but you don't need to be a web designer or technical expert.
Compensation
This is a 1099 independent contractor position with a combination of guaranteed compensation and uncapped sales commissions.
Expected Total Earnings: approximately $75,000 per year. (Base is $29,000)
Top performers have the opportunity to earn more. Your commissions are directly tied to your sales performance, so the more you sell, the more you can earn.
|| Location & Schedule ||
This is a 100% remote position open to candidates located within the United States.
Our company operates on Eastern Time, so you must be available and comfortable working during our core ET business hours.
You'll enjoy the flexibility and convenience of working from home, but we're looking for someone who treats remote work like work: dependable, responsive, organized, and ready to go every day.
Think You'd Be a Great Fit?
We're not looking for someone who simply wants a remote job.
We're looking for someone who loves selling, loves winning, follows up consistently, takes coaching well, and gets satisfaction from hitting—and beating—a goal.
If that sounds like you, we'd love to hear from you. Specifically, please record a video of yourself answering these 5 questions. Target length: 5-7 minutes:
- Start by stating your name :-)
- Give us the quick version of your sales background. What have you sold, who were you selling to, and what did a typical sales day look like?
- Tell us about your most successful sales role. What was your quota, what were your actual results, and how did you compare to the rest of the sales team?
- This role involves a high volume of inbound leads and a lot of follow-up. Walk us through how you stay organized and make sure opportunities don't fall through the cracks.
- Tell us about one time you were coached by a manager in a sales role. What did they coach you on and what was the result(s) of the coaching?
- You've learned a little about SiteSwan and this position. Why do you think you'd be particularly good at selling SiteSwan?
