About This Role: We’re hiring a Sales Development & Retail Expansion Representative to support a fast-growing, founder-led CPG brand that is ready to diversify beyond a single dominant sales channel.
This role is idóneo for a hands-on SDR/BDR-type seller who can operate independently, test multiple sales motions, and help shape the early sales process. You’ll focus on Faire marketplace outreach, small retail expansion, and B2B sales while working closely with the founder to identify what gains traction and double down where momentum exists.
There is no rigid playbook yet—this role requires comfort with ambiguity, experimentation, and execution.
Key Responsibilities: Drive outbound sales outreach to small independent retailers (1–5 locations) with baking or specialty food aisles

Develop and run B2B sales efforts targeting bakeries, cafes, and foodservice buyers

Execute Faire marketplace outreach as an initial, low-friction retail expansion channel

Support early-stage outreach to larger retail accounts once traction is demonstrated

Build and manage a simple, effective sales pipeline from scratch





Test multiple sales initiatives in parallel and reallocate focus based on results

Collaborate with the founder to define early sales strategy and priorities

Work with lightweight, evolving sales assets and iterate quickly

Track outreach, conversations, and outcomes to inform next steps

Conduct phone-based prospecting and sales conversations with retail buyers and decision-makers

Software/Platforms/Tools: CRM or pipeline tracking tools (HubSpot, Airtable, Notion, or similar)

Email and basic outreach tools

Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets)

Slack or similar communication tools

AI tools for sales productivity (Claude, ChatGPT, or similar)

Qualifications: 3–5 years of freelancing experience

3–5+ years of experience in sales development, outbound sales, or B2B sales

Excellent written and verbal English communication (C1 or C2 level preferred)

Demonstrated comfort conducting live, phone-based sales conversations with U.S. retail buyers

Experience selling to retailers, small businesses, or food/CPG-related buyers preferred

Comfortable working without a polished sales playbook

Proven ability to build processes while executing

Self-directed, organized, and comfortable owning outcomes

Able to prioritize, test, and adapt quickly based on results

Experience working with founder-led or early-stage brands is a strong plus

Compensation Structure: OTE-based model with 30–40% commission component

Base + commission structure calibrated to region and experience

Commission may be structured on total sales or net sales growth vs. the benchmark

Shift Schedule: Monday to Friday, full overlap required. Work an 8-hour day within 7:00 AM–6:00 PM Mountain Time, with flexibility on exact hours within this window.
