Appointment Setter / Outbound Caller — Warm Phone Presence (US-Based)

We're looking for a US-based appointment setter with a warm, friendly, natural phone voice to make outbound calls to local service businesses (plumbers, HVAC, contractors, etc.). This is simple, low-pressure calling — not aggressive sales. The script is short and easy: you're following up with business owners about something I've already built specifically for their business, and getting them to look at a quick personalized webpage. Your job is to be friendly, deliver a brief script, point them to the page, and take down any questions. No closing required — interested people get routed to me. What we need: - US-based, clear and natural American English - A warm, easy, conversational phone manner (people should enjoy picking up) - Reliable, self-directed, able to hit a steady call volume - Comfortable on the phone all day (prior setting/SDR/customer-service experience a plus, not required) The work: - Call through a provided list of local businesses - Deliver a short 2-sentence script + direct them to a webpage - Log basic outcomes; pass interested callers/questions to me - Part-time to start, with room to grow if it's a fit To apply — required: Record a short voice sample (10 seconds is plenty) reading this line, and include it with your application: "Hi, my name is [your name]. I'm following up on a phone call from last week. I can also send you a link now if you want. Are you ready?" Applications without a voice sample won't be considered — I'm hiring primarily on phone presence, so let me hear it. Rate is competitive (hourly + bonus per interested lead); tell me your hourly rate.
