Hi, I'm Sasha, founder of 314. What we built Most local businesses run on a stack that doesn't talk to itself. The website is one system, the booking software is another, the email tool is a third, and the ad platforms live in their own world. Nobody can answer a basic question: which of the people who came to my site actually became customers, and what happened to the ones who didn't? 314 answers that, and then acts on it. It starts with a single script on the client's website. From that moment we build a persistent profile for every visitor, stitched across sessions and devices using fingerprinting, so the same person coming back three weeks later on a different browser lands in the same profile instead of becoming a new anonymous number. Every page, every click, every form, every abandoned booking gets written to that profile. We also record full session replays, so you can literally watch where someone hesitated and left. Then we connect the systems the business already runs (their booking platform, CRM, payment processor) and merge that history into the same profile. The result is one timeline per customer: the ad they clicked in March, the three pages they read, the appointment they booked in April, what they spent, and the fact that they haven't been back since. Enterprise companies pay six figures a year for a customer data platform that does this. Local businesses have never had one. And then the part that actually makes money. An AI agent sits on top of all of it. It reads behavioral patterns across the entire customer base: which channels bring people who actually buy, which pages lose them, which customers are drifting away and how long before they're gone for good. Then it designs campaigns to act on what it finds. And it doesn't just write copy. The agent produces finished, production-ready assets: branded emails, on-site popups, full landing pages built to match the client's brand, audience segments defined by real behavioral rules, and complete multi-step automations (trigger, wait, condition, send, follow up). This is not a wrapper around an API call to OpenAI. It's a real agentic system with its own tooling, validation layers, and discovery steps that check every rule against live data before anything ships. I'm attaching screenshots of actual output so you can judge the quality yourself. Nothing goes live on its own. Everything the agent creates lands in a proposed state, and the owner reviews it. Once a week they get an email: here's what happened, here's what I've prepared, approve or edit. Ten minutes. That's the entire time commitment we ask of a business owner. So here's the honest one-line version, and the one you'll actually say on calls: these businesses already paid to acquire their customers, and nobody is working them. So they buy more ads instead, not because it's better, but because it's easier. We're the thing that works the customers they already have. Who we sell to We define our customer by shape, not by industry. The profile that fits: - A customer database of roughly 1,000 people or more. There has to be something worth re-engaging. - At least a couple of years in business, with a stable customer base rather than a launch-stage experiment. - Appointment-based or otherwise built on repeat purchase, where a customer coming back is normal and expected. - Already spending on acquisition, whether that's ads, SEO, or referrals, and feeling the cost of it. - Wants real marketing but can't justify an in-house marketer at $70K a year, and doesn't want to hand $3K a month to an agency for a monthly report. In practice that's often med spas, dental and aesthetic clinics, home service contractors, and B2B service companies, but the shape matters more than the label. Our price point is $750 to $1,000 a month, so this is not for solo operators. Why I'm hiring I'm an engineer. I live in the US, but I'm not American, and my English isn't going to sell a business owner in Ohio. My team and I built this product, and I can talk about it all day to another technical person. Selling it to an SMB owner in the first ninety seconds of a call is a different skill, and it's the one I don't have. That's the gap. The role You own the sales call end to end: you open, you run the conversation, you close. I'll be on calls with you as much as you want me there, especially early on. I'll demo the product, handle anything technical live, and be the person you step away to when you need approval on terms. My goal is that we build a sales machine together, and I'll put in whatever time that takes. If at some point you'd rather run calls solo, that's a good outcome too. How the sale actually works: you demo the product on the call and show real results from existing clients. Then you offer a trial, up to a month, and I handle the entire setup for the client personally. During that trial 314 is live and working: it runs campaigns, brings customers back, and generates revenue. The dashboard shows attributed revenue side by side with what the subscription costs, so by the end of the trial the client isn't deciding based on a feature list, they're looking at a number. What I'll give you I'll do my best to hand you everything you need to sell: - A researched prospect list (real websites, real traffic, businesses already spending on acquisition) - Product one-pager, objection guide, demo environment, and a written list of terms you can offer on your own authority - Direct access to me. No manager, no layers, no CRM bureaucracy. That said, I'd rather build this with you than hand you a finished playbook. You've sold to these people and I haven't. If your instinct is that the script should sound different, that we're targeting the wrong list, or that the offer needs to change, I want to hear it. That input is worth as much to me as the calls. What I'm looking for - Native or near-native US English, confident on the phone with business owners - Real closing experience: SMB and local services, agency sales, SaaS, or similar. Not just appointment setting. - Comfortable selling an early-stage product with a small number of reference customers. If you need a Gartner quadrant to sell, this isn't it. - Good notes. I want the exact words people use when they object. How we'd start I'm open on this, and I'd rather hear how you'd approach it than impose a structure. If you've run this kind of engagement before, tell me what worked: a short paid pilot, a set block of calling hours, a ramp period. I'm listening. Compensation Also open. My assumption is hourly plus a bonus for each closed client, moving to a percentage once we both know the numbers, but if you've seen a structure that works better for a product at this stage, propose it. I'd rather get this right than be clever about it. To apply Please skip the template proposal, I'll skip it right back. Instead just write to me directly: what you make of the product, how you'd approach selling it, what you think I've got wrong, and what you'd want the arrangement to look like. Short is fine, I care about the thinking. And if you send a quick Loom instead of text, I'd genuinely appreciate it. Hearing how you talk tells me more than any resume, and it puts you at the top of my list. Looking forward to it.

Lead Generation Specialist to Book Qualified CEO Meetings for a Fractional Executive Practice ABOUT US We are a 30 year innovation management consulting practice led by a bestselling author, innovation strategist, and executive advisor. We provide Fractional Chief Innovation Officer, Chief AI Innovation Officer, and Chief Experience Officer services to midsize organizations. THE ROLE We're looking for one experienced, independent lead generation specialist, not an agency, to build and own a focused pipeline of qualified CEO conversations for our fractional executive services. We run the entire sales process ourselves and have a strong track record of closing executive engagements. What we need is a strategic partner who owns the top of the funnel by identifying the right organizations, uncovering a credible reason to engage their CEO, and creating a steady flow of high quality executive conversations. We value quality over volume. Five conversations with highly qualified CEOs are far more valuable than dozens of loosely targeted appointments. This is an account based, research driven role focused on precision rather than scale. WHO WE'RE TRYING TO REACH Buyer CEO of a midsize organization with approximately 100 to 3,000 employees. This may also include Presidents, Founders, COOs, Chief Strategy Officers, Chief Transformation Officers, Board Chairs, and Private Equity Operating Partners. Ideal Client Established organizations with the resources for a senior executive engagement that are facing disruption, growth challenges, fragmented AI initiatives, operational complexity, or major business transformation. The real challenge is not building a large prospect list. It's identifying organizations with a genuine business need and a compelling reason for the CEO to have a conversation with us. WHAT YOU'LL OWN Prioritizing the industries and market segments with the highest potential. Developing a repeatable process for identifying trigger events such as private equity investment, new executive leadership, AI initiatives, mergers and acquisitions, growth challenges, or strategic planning cycles. Building and verifying highly targeted account and contact lists. Creating personalized executive outreach through the most effective mix of LinkedIn, email, referral partners, executive communities, and other appropriate channels. Booking qualified executive meetings, providing a clean handoff, and managing disciplined follow up. Reporting on qualified meetings, response rates, conversion metrics, pipeline creation, and overall campaign performance. YOU'RE A STRONG FIT IF YOU Have personally generated meetings with CEOs or C suite executives for high value consulting, advisory, or fractional executive services and can demonstrate measurable results. Use account based, research driven outreach rather than high volume prospecting. Write like a trusted peer introducing two executives, never a salesperson delivering a pitch. Are highly skilled with modern research, data, and prospecting tools while maintaining professionalism, compliance, and strong deliverability. Take ownership of outcomes and communicate proactively. NOT A FIT We work only with independent freelancers based in the United States. No agencies. No outsourced teams. No bulk email marketers or appointment setting firms. We're looking for someone who understands how to build relationships with executive decision makers while protecting the reputation of an established consulting practice. There are no setup fees. All engagements are month to month. We believe long term relationships should be earned through results, not contracts. COMPENSATION Monthly retainer, reimbursement for approved tools, and a performance bonus for qualified meetings that convert into consulting engagements. Compensation will depend on your proposed approach and scope of work. The first month will serve as a low risk trial for both of us. If the relationship is producing results, we'll continue building together. HOW TO APPLY Please don't send a generic proposal. We'd like to understand how you think. Please tell us: What overall demand generation strategy would you recommend and why? Which industries or market segments would you prioritize first? How would you identify buying triggers and organizations most likely to engage? Which research and contact data tools would you use? How would you personalize your outreach to CEOs? How do you define a qualified executive meeting? What reporting and success metrics would you provide? Based on your experience, what is a realistic and conservative expectation for qualified CEO conversations each month after ramp up? Share two comparable campaigns you've managed, including results. If you had a reasonable monthly budget, how would you allocate it and why? We're not looking for someone to simply execute outreach. We're looking for someone who can help us build a repeatable demand generation engine that consistently creates meaningful conversations with executive decision makers. To help us identify candidates who have carefully read this posting, please begin your proposal by answering this question in one or two sentences: "Why would a CEO take this meeting?"

Our fast-growth digital agency works with iconic consumer brands and we're looking for an exceptional Executive Assistant and right-hand person to support our founding team as we scale. This is not a traditional EA role, and it's not a pure operations role either. It sits somewhere in between, with opportunity to grow into more responsibility. If you need a clean job description to feel comfortable, this probably isn't for you. If you get energized by the idea of being close to the action at a fast-moving agency with big ambitions, keep reading. To be clear: we are not looking for a great EA that waits for tasks and executes them well. We want someone that can proactively drive, run point on big projects, operationalize strategic brain dumps, and also flawlessly execute on the little stuff. **What You’ll Do** There's no tidy way to describe this role because no two weeks look the same. You'll support our executive team directly: keeping them organized, unblocked, and focused on what matters most. Some days that looks like traditional EA work. Other days it looks more like special operations or something else entirely. You'll be the connective tissue between our founders and everything that needs to happen. That means proactive calendar management, inbox triage, daily briefings, and making sure nothing gets dropped - but it also means owning an independent queue of operational projects and driving them to completion without someone chasing you down. The core of this role is capture and close. When something is asked in Slack, it gets tracked. When something is assigned, it gets done and confirmed. When something is slipping, you flag it before it's late - not after. You don't wait to be checked in on. You're the one doing the checking. • Daily executive support: briefings, inbox triage and labeling, calendar management, meeting coordination, and keeping founders organized and unblocked • Task tracking ownership: you're the system to capture, prioritize, and get past the finish line • Proactive status communication: weekly board sweeps, unprompted updates, and flagging blockers the moment they emerge — not when someone asks • Operational project ownership: SOPs, onboarding, tools audits, HR admin and whatever else needs building or maintaining • Urgency calibration: you know the difference between a P3 that can wait and something that needs to happen in the next two hours - and you act accordingly • Close the loop: you confirm when things are done, you resurface when things are stuck, and you never let an open ask sit silent • Own research projects: from quick lookups to deep dives. Deliver clear, actionable outputs • Help keep people-related efforts moving: hiring coordination, outreach, candidate tracking, and more • Be a trusted presence: someone the team relies on, not just a task processor • Biz Dev and Marketing coordination: From keeping our CRM clean to planning cool events and organizing case study assets **What We're Looking For** We care far more about who you are than what your resume looks like. • You run your own queue. You don't need to be told what to work on next — you know what's open, what's urgent, and what's been sitting too long, and you act on it without prompting • Nothing falls through the cracks on your watch. If it was asked, it's tracked. If it's tracked, it has a status. If the status changes, you say so • You communicate proactively and specifically. "I'm on it" isn't an update. You say what you did, what's next, and what you need • You recognize urgency. A meeting happening in two hours that needs to be moved is not a task for later — you know that instinctively • You move fast and stay calm when things shift. Priorities change; you adapt without losing the thread • You're deeply tech-savvy and pick up new tools fast — Asana, Slack, Rippling, Google Workspace, and whatever else we throw at you • Extensive Claude / AI experience is a strong plus — we run our operations through AI tooling and expect this person to do the same • You've managed complex executive calendars and inboxes before and understand what real-time support looks like at that level **What This Is Not** This is not a role where you execute tasks when asked and wait for more. It's not a role where blockers sit until the next check-in. It's not a role where you update the system right before a meeting to look current. If your default mode is reactive, this isn't the right fit. If your default mode is "I already handled it," and you be 3 steps ahead, we'd love to hear from you. If you are not comfortable working in the grey or in a fast-growth environment, this role probably isn't for you. **What You'll Get** • A front-row seat building a high-growth agency • Direct, daily access to the executive team • A role that will evolve as we do, with real opportunity to grow into whatever you're most passionate with • A collaborative, no-bureaucracy environment where your work actually matters

Job Type: One-time project | Fixed price About Us I run a consulting business serving law firms nationwide — helping attorneys improve operations, billing, and efficiency. I have a professional WordPress/Elementor website that’s been maintained but never strategically evaluated. Must reside in the United States and be okay to provide proof. About the Project I need an honest, data-driven audit to answer one question: is my website worth investing in as a lead-generation channel, or should I leave it as a credibility/reference site and focus my marketing budget elsewhere? This is a single deliverable — a written report — not an ongoing engagement. I am not looking to hire this same person for follow-on SEO or web work, so I want your unbiased read, not a sales pitch for more services. What I Need in the Report 1. Current organic traffic volume and trend (Google Analytics / Search Console — I can grant access) 2. What people are actually searching to find businesses like mine, and whether my site currently ranks for any of it 3. A realistic read on the competitive landscape — are these keywords winnable for a small consulting firm, or dominated by larger players? 4. Site health basics that affect discoverability (page speed, mobile experience, indexing issues, obvious technical problems) 5. A blunt, direct recommendation: invest in this channel, don’t, or invest lightly and monitor — with your reasoning What I Value • Straight talk, including “you shouldn’t spend money on this” if that’s the honest conclusion • Data-backed conclusions, not general best-practice advice • No upsell — flag if you also do this SEO/web work elsewhere, but the deliverable is the audit only To Apply, Please Include 1. An example of a similar audit you’ve done (redacted is fine) and what the recommendation was 2. Your approach to determining whether a small B2B services site is worth an SEO investment 3. Your fixed rate for this project and estimated turnaround time 4. Confirmation you’re comfortable providing a “don’t invest” conclusion if that’s what the data shows Budget: $300–$600 fixed price, depending on scope of access provided and depth of report. Please quote your rate for a single written audit (not per-hour, not contingent on future work). Timeline: 1–2 weeks from access grant to delivered report.

• Track record scaling a coaching, education, or information offer to seven figures or beyond • Real experience running paid media at meaningful spend • Comfort selling to blue-collar and trades audiences • Ability to identify the one constraint holding growth back • Fully autonomous operator who reports on cadence and doesn’t need managing Not a Fit Agencies. Anyone who leads with a rebrand. Anyone who needs a long discovery phase before having a point of view. Anyone who wants to execute rather than direct.

COMMISSION-BASED SALES: Fire/EMS Training Software - Full Control Over Territory & Compensation --- ## What We're Looking For A sales-driven person who can build a territory in the fire/EMS market and own deals end-to-end. You'll be paid commission on every demo you run and deal you close — no salary, no territory carve-out, just pure upside as the first sales hire. This is a contract role. You're responsible for your own lead gen, prospecting, and closing. We provide tools, demo accounts, and support. You provide hustle and sales skill. --- ## The Market Opportunity A fire service training & compliance SaaS platform for departments and EMS agencies. The market is: - **Massive & under-penetrated.** Thousands of departments across North America still running training on spreadsheets, paper task books, or expensive legacy software they hate. Zero awareness of this platform. Huge TAM. - **Recurring revenue.** $50/staff/year. A 100-person department = $5K/year. A 200-person department = $10K/year. - **High retention.** Once departments switch, they stay. Product is purpose-built, simple to use, and training officers rely on it. - **Low-touch sales cycle.** Not 6-month enterprise deals. You can close departments in weeks. --- ## What You'll Do - **Prospect** departments across your territory using our Instantly outreach accounts (warm-up sequences, email automation, all set up) - **Qualify leads** via follow-up calls/emails to identify pain points and decision-makers - **Book demos** with departments that show genuine interest - **Track everything** in Pipedrive (already configured; you just log activity and close deals) We provide the infrastructure. You own the prospecting, qualification, and closing. You set your own pace and territory. No quota. No timesheet. Just commission. --- ## What's Already Built For You - **Instantly accounts** — warm-up sequences and cold email campaigns ready to deploy - **Pipedrive CRM** — configured, ready to use. Just log your activity. - **Department lists** — targeting data by region and department size, sorted and ready to reach out to - **Demo accounts** — run live demos without touching production data --- ## Compensation **$100 per qualified lead** you book (results in a confirmed demo or exploratory call) **25% of first-year contract value** on every department you help close Uncapped. The more you close, the more you make. --- ## What You Need - B2B SaaS sales or inside sales experience (minimum 1–2 years) - Comfort with cold outreach and prospecting - Ability to work independently with minimal supervision - Basic CRM literacy (we use Pipedrive; very learnable) - Coachable and willing to learn the fire service market - Can commit 20–40 hours/week to this (you decide the hours; we don't track) You do **not** need fire service experience. We'll teach you the product and the market. --- ## Why This Works - **Low barrier to entry.** No background in fire service required. Just sales skill. - **Recurring revenue model.** Customers don't churn; your commissions compound over time if you keep closing. - **Uncapped upside.** 25% of first-year value is standard SaaS commission. If you close $50K in new ACV, you make $12.5K. If you close $150K in ACV, you make $37.5K. - **Your territory.** You pick your region and approach. We don't micromanage. - **Minimal product learning curve.** It's training software for firefighters. One call with me and you understand the value prop. --- ## A Note on Seriousness This is not a get-rich-quick thing and it's not passive. You'll be prospecting, making calls, following up. The people who make real money here will treat it like a territory they're building, not a side gig they check once a month. If you're willing to work it like that, the upside is real.
