Business Development Manager (Software Solutions/Services)

This is a remote position.

The role: Drive qualified pipeline for high-value custom development projects ($60K–120K+) through strategic outbound to business buyers. Own prospecting, qualification, and SQL handoff to technical teams. Preferred experience selling to hospitality, retail, or multi-location operators.

1. Outbound execution — Build targeted account lists (Apollo), craft personalized sequences (Smartlead), manage LinkedIn outreach, and track in HubSpot.
   

2. Lead qualification — Run discovery calls to validate: budget authority, technical requirements (APIs, integrations, multi-location complexity), decision timelines, stakeholder mapping
   

3. Campaign optimization — A/B test messaging, analyze reply rates, iterate based on data (not vanity metrics)
   

4. Pipeline ownership — Weekly reporting: accounts touched, SQLs generated, conversion rates, deal velocity
   

5. Market intelligence — Feed back: buyer objections, competitor intel, pricing benchmarks, messaging effectiveness
   

Requirements

1. 4–6 years B2B tech sales — Selling custom development, SaaS platforms, enterprise software, or technical services (not products)
   

2. High-ticket experience — Proven track record closing or generating pipeline for $50K+ deals with 3–6 month cycles
   

3. Technical fluency — Can hold conversations with CTOs, Engineering Managers, IT Directors about APIs, integrations, system architecture
   

4. Outbound craft — Your cold emails get replies. You research accounts, personalize at scale, and know the difference between good and bad copy
   

5. CRM discipline — Comfortable with Apollo, HubSpot, Smartlead (or equivalents). You track, you learn, you iterate
   

6. Self-starter mentality — No hand-holding. You build lists, test hypotheses, own outcomes
