Summary

I'm looking for an experienced cold caller to reach out to small businesses—mostly restaurants—and get them signed up for my service. The pitch is easy to make: we build and fully manage a business's website, online ordering, and more for a flat monthly rate. Many of these businesses have either 1) no current online presence, or 2) a very poorly designed and implemented website. We charge no upfront cost, we send them a free redesign preview before they pay anything, and we handle everything after that. It's a genuinely good offer, which makes the calls a lot easier than most cold outreach. What you'd do: Call restaurants and local shops from a provided list Explain the service and why it's worth it (I'll give you a script and talking points) Book interested owners for a follow-up or close the sign-up directly What I'm looking for: Proven telemarketing or cold-calling experience Confident, friendly phone presence and clear spoken English Comfortable handling objections and hearing "no" without losing steam Self-motivated and reliable If you've sold to small business owners before, that's a big plus.
