Sales Director Needed for Legal Marketing Agency — Commission Only We are looking for a commission-only Sales Director to help grow our legal marketing agency. We work with law firms on social media, SEO/GEO, Google Ads, Meta Ads, websites, video, AI automations, and full client-acquisition systems. We are looking for someone who understands high-ticket agency sales, law firm decision-makers, and modern lead acquisition funnels. This is not a basic appointment-setting role. We need someone who can help manage and improve the sales system around our existing and future callers, lead sources, follow-up process, booking strategy, and closing pipeline. The right person should be able to look at our current sales operation and help us make it sharper, more accountable, and more scalable. Responsibilities include: Managing and overseeing lead follow-up from caller(s) and appointment setters Making sure leads are being contacted, followed up with, and moved through the pipeline Building and improving traditional acquisition funnels Exploring emerging acquisition funnels for agency growth Helping create systems for booked consultations, nurture, retargeting, and follow-up Reviewing call notes, lead quality, show rates, and sales outcomes Helping improve scripts, offers, follow-up sequences, and sales positioning Supporting Meta Ads funnel strategy for high-ticket agency bookings Helping us generate qualified calls with law firms and legal business owners Keeping the team accountable to daily and weekly sales activity Recommending new channels, campaigns, partnerships, and outbound strategies We are especially interested in someone who understands: High-ticket agency sales Meta Ads funnels Legal marketing or professional services marketing Appointment-setting systems Sales pipeline management Retargeting and nurture funnels Outbound follow-up strategy CRM discipline Offer positioning Closing or helping close $4,000–$15,000+/month service packages This role is commission only. We are open to discussing the exact commission structure with the right person, but the goal is simple: if you help us bring in qualified law firm clients, you should be paid well for it. This may be a strong fit if you are already experienced in sales leadership, agency growth, or paid acquisition funnels and want upside instead of a fixed hourly role. You should be comfortable working independently, reviewing what is happening in the sales pipeline, holding callers accountable, and helping us turn more leads into booked strategy calls and closed deals. To apply, please include: Your experience with high-ticket agency sales Your experience with Meta Ads funnels or paid acquisition funnels Any experience selling to law firms, professional services, or local businesses How you would manage caller follow-up and pipeline accountability Your preferred commission structure Examples of sales systems, funnels, or teams you have helped improve We are not looking for someone who just says “I can generate leads.” We are looking for a sales leader who can help us build a better acquisition machine: better follow-up, better booked calls, better funnel strategy, better accountability, and more signed clients for our agency.

Brand Operations & Digital Asset Management Lead Alternative titles: DAM Manager, Brand Operations Manager, Brand Asset & Guidelines Manager, or Director of Brand Operations & DAM depending on experience level. Company: FUR4 Role Type: Full-time Reports To: Founder / Brand Owner / Executive Leadership Works closely with: CMO, COO/CTO, Product, Catalog, Sales, Retailer Onboarding, Creative, Legal/Compliance, Marketplace, Web, AI, and service-provider teams. Role Summary: FUR4 is looking for a highly organized, detail-driven Brand Operations & Digital Asset Management Lead to own, maintain, and continuously improve the company’s brand guidelines, DAM, public-approved asset system, Brand.FUR4.com, Brandfolder structure, and daily public-facing creative asset audit process. This role is responsible for making sure every public, partner-facing, retailer-facing, marketplace-facing, and AI/search-visible FUR4 asset is accurate, approved, properly named, properly tagged, correctly sized, source-traceable, and used according to written brand guidelines. This is not a social media management role, a PR role, or a campaign-management role. This is a brand operations, DAM governance, asset QA, metadata, approval workflow, and brand consistency role. The person in this role will help convert FUR4’s creative direction into a structured, searchable, scalable operating system that internal teams, external partners, retailers, catalog managers, service providers, search engines, AI tools, and crawlers can understand and follow. Why This Role Exists FUR4 has a strong brand foundation, but the current audit shows that the public asset and brand-guideline system still needs to be fully operationalized. The audit identifies Brand.FUR4.com / Brandfolder as the official production master asset source, FUR4.com as the live consumer-facing product and messaging reference, PAF/catalog data as the SKU and product-data source, and David’s owner-approved Illustrator files as the final design authority. The audit also shows that the current system still needs final Illustrator/source files, packaged fonts, swatches, logo vectors, dielines, Brandfolder export/API access, official font confirmation, claim/trademark review, naming normalization, metadata, and asset approval status before the system can reliably guide the team and partners. This role exists to close that gap. The person in this role will make sure FUR4 does not have broken images, distorted images, wrong product variants, outdated claims, missing metadata, inconsistent file names, unapproved public assets, unclear public/private asset rules, or AI/crawler-visible brand inconsistencies. Core Responsibilities 1. Own the DAM and Brand.FUR4.com System Manage Brand.FUR4.com / Brandfolder as the official brand and asset source of truth. Maintain all approved brand assets, product images, packaging images, lifestyle images, videos, logos, feature icons, claims, creative assets, campaign files, sales assets, and partner materials. Organize assets into clear directories such as logos, product images, product videos, promotional images, lifestyle images, influencer videos, information, marketplaces, social content, press assets, dog content, cat content, packaging, product design, training/AI, and source samples. Ensure every asset has a clear owner, approval status, version number, source file, usage rule, channel rule, country rule, and public/private designation. Maintain a complete asset inventory that includes file name, asset type, SKU, product line, dimensions, ratio, format, usage rights, source URL, CDN URL, tags, description, approval status, modified date, and owner. 2. Maintain Written Brand Guidelines Translate approved brand direction into clear, written rules the team and partners can actually follow. Maintain guidelines for logos, marks, slogans, taglines, claims, product imagery, feature graphics, packaging, videos, icons, badges, CTAs, review graphics, campaign assets, marketplace assets, retailer assets, and partner downloads. Create do/don’t examples so teams understand what is approved, what is wrong, and why. Document rules by asset type, property, channel, product line, SKU, country, territory, language, and use case. Ensure public assets are supported by written usage instructions so AI tools, crawlers, search engines, service providers, and partners know how to treat them. 3. Manage Public vs. Private Asset Governance Define and maintain which assets are public, private, gated, partner-only, source-only, internal-only, legal-review-only, draft, retired, or approved for public use. Ensure only approved, customer-safe, partner-safe, SEO-safe, AI-safe assets are public and crawlable. Keep source Illustrator files, layered files, raw renders, unreleased product assets, legal-review drafts, pending claims, internal pricing, retailer-specific terms, contracts, sensitive CAD/GLB files, and strategy documents private or gated unless approved for release. Make sure the right public assets are discoverable for SEO, search, AI, retailers, partners, and customers, while protecting sensitive or unapproved materials. 4. Daily Public Creative Asset Audit Run a daily audit of FUR4’s public and partner-facing creative footprint. This includes FUR4.com, Brand.FUR4.com, Dealer.FUR4.com, Catalog.FUR4.com, Pro.FUR4.com, Refer.FUR4.com, Brandfolder, online marketplaces, retailer portals, distributor sites, sales channel sites, catalog systems, PDP pages, social channels, paid ads, email assets, press assets, partner downloads, CDN links, and public image URLs. Check for broken images, blocked images, distorted images, wrong file sizes, wrong aspect ratios, outdated assets, incorrect claims, wrong product variants, wrong grip colors, incorrect SKU mapping, missing alt text, missing metadata, unapproved public assets, and inconsistent brand usage. Maintain a correction log and make sure issues are fixed quickly. 5. Product Image and Variant Accuracy Ensure product images show the correct grip color, correct species, correct coat type, four deShedding edges, SafetyNubs, silver body geometry, and no harsh metal blade appearance. Ensure Long Hair Dog, Short Hair Dog, Long Hair Cat, and Short Hair Cat assets are not mixed or mislabeled. Maintain image rules for PDP, marketplace, packaging, retail sell sheets, social, paid ads, training, support, dealer portals, catalog pages, press, and AI reference. Maintain multiple approved image sizes and aspect ratios so assets are not stretched, squeezed, distorted, cropped incorrectly, or compressed poorly. 6. SEO, Search, AI, and Crawler Readiness Make sure public assets are named, tagged, described, and structured so search engines, AI systems, crawlers, catalog systems, marketplace systems, and partners understand what each asset is and how it should be used. Maintain SEO titles, alt text, metadata, descriptions, file names, structured tags, source URLs, and usage rules. Ensure AI tools are pointed only to approved assets and approved brand guidelines. Prevent public-facing inconsistency from becoming the version that search engines, AI, partners, retailers, and customers learn from. 7. Approval Workflow and SLA Management Create and manage a request-and-approval workflow for new assets. For example, if the dealer portal needs a pallet image, the request should include the use case, destination property, product/SKU, country, required size/ratio, deadline, mockup, and approval owner. Route assets to the correct reviewer, collect feedback, track approval, finalize exports, upload approved versions, tag them properly, add usage rules, and retire old versions. Maintain a one-business-day response SLA for launch-critical asset requests. The asset does not always have to be completed in one day, but the request must receive approval, revision notes, or escalation within one business day. 8. Brandfolder Export and Completion Plan Coordinate Brandfolder export/API access so the company has a complete asset inventory. The audit notes that Brand.FUR4.com publicly confirms the 348-asset Brandfolder collection and the Web Store Images collection, but full asset details require export/API/login access. This role is responsible for closing that gap and maintaining the completed inventory. Normalize file names using the approved naming structure. Map old/original file names to FUR4 production names. Track asset status as approved, draft, retired, pending legal review, internal-only, partner-only, or public-approved. 9. Claims, Trademark, and Compliance Coordination Work with brand, legal, product, and compliance teams to verify usage rules for claims and protected terms. Maintain rules for FUR4, FUR4 deShedding Tool, SafetyNubs™, PolyCarboMax™, Long Hair Dog, Short Hair Dog, Long Hair Cat, Short Hair Cat, “No harsh metal blades,” “300% more deShedding area,” and “Reduces shedding up to 95%.” Ensure claims are only used where approved, sourced, channel-appropriate, and country-appropriate. Flag legal, country, packaging, advertising, marketplace, and international usage risks before publication. 10. Cross-Functional Coordination Work daily with leadership, CMO, COO/CTO, creative, product, catalog, sales, marketplace, web, legal, compliance, retailer onboarding, and outside service providers. Attend daily operating meetings so asset needs are known before teams are blocked. Track what is launching, what is being revised, what is going to retailers, what is being uploaded to marketplaces, what needs approval, and what needs to be created next. Serve as the operating layer between creative direction and execution. Required Skills Strong experience managing a DAM, Brandfolder, Bynder, Canto, Adobe Experience Manager Assets, Widen, Frontify, Brandpad, or similar asset-management platform. Strong understanding of brand guidelines, brand governance, creative operations, file naming, metadata, tagging, taxonomy, rights management, version control, and approval workflows.

Strong project-management discipline with ability to manage daily audits, correction logs, deadlines, approvals, and cross-functional blockers. Excellent written communication skills. High attention to detail and comfort working in fast-moving environments. Required Experience 5+ years of experience in brand operations, creative operations, DAM management, digital asset management, marketing operations, catalog operations, ecommerce content operations, or a closely related role. Direct experience managing a large DAM or brand asset library with hundreds or thousands of assets. Experience supporting ecommerce, marketplaces, retail channels, distributor portals, catalog teams, product data teams, or multi-channel brand execution. Experience working with creative directors, brand owners, marketing teams, product teams, legal/compliance teams, and outside agencies. Experience creating and enforcing naming conventions, metadata standards, approval workflows, asset lifecycle rules, and usage guidelines.

Experience supporting Amazon, Chewy, Walmart, Shopify, retailer portals, distributor portals, PIM systems, PAF files, GS1/GTIN data, or catalog onboarding workflows.

Ideal Candidate Profile The ideal candidate is a highly organized brand-operations professional who has managed a real DAM before and understands that brand consistency is not just design taste. It is file structure, metadata, naming, permissions, approvals, source control, image sizing, public/private governance, channel rules, country rules, daily QA, and constant maintenance. This person should be comfortable working with executives, designers, marketers, catalog teams, ecommerce teams, legal, service providers, and AI workflows. They should be able to move quickly without being sloppy and enforce structure without slowing the company down. They should understand that every public asset is part of the brand system. If it is public, search engines, AI, crawlers, retailers, partners, and customers can see it. Therefore, it needs to be accurate, approved, documented, searchable, properly sized, and governed. Recommended First 90 Days First 30 Days Complete Brandfolder export/API inventory. Map all current assets into approved directories. Identify broken, distorted, outdated, duplicate, missing, or unapproved assets. Confirm public/private status for existing assets. Build the first version of the daily public asset audit checklist. Create the launch-critical asset request workflow. Days 31–60 Complete naming normalization and metadata standards.

Build claims and trademark usage matrix. Publish first version of Brand.FUR4.com usage rules. Implement correction log and weekly reporting. Days 61–90 Complete public-approved asset directory.

Create monthly brand consistency report. Identify remaining staffing, vendor, or system gaps. Suggested Role Level Given the urgency, visibility, and complexity, this should not be treated as an entry-level or first-time DAM role. The company needs someone who has either already managed a large DAM before or is directly supported by an experienced DAM/brand-operations consultant. A good title would be: Director of Brand Operations & Digital Asset Management if the person has senior experience and can build the system from scratch. Brand Operations & DAM Manager if the person has hands-on DAM experience and will work under executive/creative direction. Brand Asset Coordinator would be too junior unless paired with a senior DAM consultant or experienced brand-ops lead.

Long-term partnership. Individual operator or tight team. Bootstrapped venture. Propose your engagement. Project Overview BuildQuest is a SaaS marketplace helping homeowners plan $100K–$2M construction projects — major remodels, additions, custom builds. We solve a chronic problem that has plagued residential construction for decades, and we solve it from both sides of the marketplace. Order matters: BuildQuest was built to serve homeowners first. Pros come second. That orientation defines our positioning, pricing, and every decision. What we are BuildQuest is a real SaaS platform in active development — not a slide deck and not a solo founder side project. There’s a serious engineering team, a UI/UX and product lead, and an advisory board with deep tech backgrounds. The product is in good hands. What’s been founder-built and now needs a marketing partner is the public-facing marketing layer — brand voice, story, creative, distribution, infrastructure. That’s the work this hire takes over. Companion Document We’ve also attached the BuildQuest Marketing Manifesto to this posting — eight specific beliefs that shape what we’re hiring for. Please review it before responding. Candidates who reference it directly in their proposal will be evaluated more favorably. The two-sided problem Homeowner side (B2C — primary audience, paying customer). Planning a major project today means fragmenting effort across Pinterest, contractor calls, cost calculators, and trial-and-error research — to figure out what to build, articulate a personal style, land on a realistic budget, and find qualified pros. Months or years. Many projects die in the planning phase. Pro side (B2B — served through serving homeowners). Design and construction pros burn hundreds of hours on unrealistic prospects, then get charged by referral services to chase the same kind of leads. They’re tired of being courted as the customer. How BuildQuest flips the script. Most marketplaces in this category court pros as the customer and treat homeowners as the lead being sold. We do the opposite. Homeowners are the paying customer. Pros earn access by being good at their work — and what they get is fundamentally different from a referral platform: clients with clear scope, defined style, realistic budgets, ready to engage. That’s the B2B strategy: serve pros by serving the homeowner well. Why Now • AI is rewriting consumer discovery. Google search volume is plateauing for the first time. Homeowners increasingly ask ChatGPT, Perplexity, and Claude. The search-and-aggregator model that built Houzz and Angi is structurally shifting. • The referral-platform model is collapsing under pro fatigue and broken unit economics. • Consumer expectations for premium service in residential construction are at an all-time high — with almost nothing in the current landscape meeting them. Someone builds the homeowner-first incumbent in this space within the next 24 months. We intend it to be us. The marketing partner who joins now helps decide what that brand becomes. Why this engagement is different Long-term partnership, preserves your independence. Joining for the long haul — not executing a campaign and disappearing, and not a soft pitch to W-2. The best independents are independent for real reasons; we respect that. Brand DNA, not brand amplification. The narrative, voice, message architecture, and launch playbook are still being shaped. You help architect them. That window closes at launch. A storytelling and visual craft role at its core. The marketing partner owns the brand’s words and the visual output of marketing — mockups, ad creative, collateral, video concepts, social. Clint runs UI/UX and product design; the marketing partner runs marketing design. Two crafts, side by side. Founder-led content is the engine. Bill’s podcast (59 episodes and growing), book, and 30+ years of expertise are the engine. The partner builds the systems around it that scale the founder’s authority — amplification, distribution, repurposing. Founder-engaged collaboration. Bill is present at the weekly working session, looped in on meaningful decisions, and reviewing what goes out before it ships. The partner brings finished thinking and finished work; Bill reacts, we refine, we ship. Decisions happen in days, not months. Core focus areas Creative voice, copy & visual execution (primary) • Develop the brand voice and message architecture for both audiences (homeowner-first B2C, pro-serving B2B) • Write the core marketing collateral — landing pages, email sequences, ad copy, sales pages, social posts, video scripts, podcast descriptions • Produce designed mockups and finished-feeling marketing collateral — show up to working sessions with visualized concepts, not just briefs • Identify hook points — the moments where a homeowner (or pro) commits — and architect messaging and creative around them • Build the educational content strategy that translates 30+ years of construction expertise into content that genuinely teaches and converts • Develop launch narratives across pre-launch, beta, soft launch, public phases Launch & lifecycle systems (primary) • Design and execute waitlist and beta tester recruitment • Recruit design and construction pros to the platform’s free tier • Architect the full lifecycle — acquisition, activation, retention, expansion, referral, win-back • Run early acquisition tests with discipline on owned vs. rented attention Distribution & owned channels • Build distribution systems that turn content into actual attention • Prioritize owned media (email, podcast, community) over rented (paid) • Establish partnership and co-marketing strategy with adjacent brands Polish & revamp the marketing layer • Elevate the current marketing websites (founder-built; in need of partner-driven polish or revamp) • Audit and elevate current social presence and email list • Keep / optimize / rebuild decisions; lead execution Marketing infrastructure • Propose and implement CRM, automation, analytics, reporting • Email automation workflows • AI-augmented content workflows turning 59+ podcast episodes into multi-channel reach Content strategy, SEO & AI-era discovery • Modern SEO: semantic search, topic clusters, E-E-A-T • AI-era discovery: GEO/AEO, structured content for LLM citation, presence inside AI-generated answers • Repurposing systems for long-form expertise • Local SEO for the pro side Required capabilities Creative voice and copy. This role lives or dies on storytelling. You take 30+ years of construction expertise and turn it into stories homeowners feel and pros trust. You write hooks that convert. You design educational content that earns trust by genuinely teaching. You think in hook points and architect messaging around them. You write in long-form and short-form, B2C and B2B. Visual design fluency. You bring concepts to life visually — mockups, layouts, ad creative, social posts, video concepts, marketing collateral that’s already designed when it hits the table. Fluent in modern design tools (Figma, Canva, AI design and video tools). You produce finished-feeling work without waiting on a designer. Sector experience. U.S. home improvement, real estate, or residential design/construction — or proven ability to go deep on a complex category fast, with portfolio evidence. 0→1 launch experience. You’ve shaped brand positioning from scratch and taken products through pre-launch → beta → soft → public launch. Portfolio work to show. AI-era discovery (GEO/AEO). You build for presence inside AI-generated answers, not just search results pages. The most consequential shift in marketing discovery since Google itself The mission for a 2026 launch. Distribution-first thinking. Content abundance is no longer the constraint; distribution is. You measure success on reach and engagement, not output volume. Lifecycle marketing. You think in the full arc — acquisition, activation, retention, expansion, referral, win-back — not just the funnel top. Modern, AI-augmented marketing practice. You’ve built technology-augmented workflows that deliver meaningful productivity gains. Show us how a single operator or tight team uses today’s tools to deliver what used to take ten people — and how that leverage serves both sides of a two-sided marketplace. Analytics, stack architecture, systems thinking. Expert-level analytics, A/B testing, attribution, dashboard design. Can propose and implement a marketing stack appropriate to an early-stage two-sided SaaS. Reusable workflows. Strongly preferred • Two-sided marketplace experience — chicken-and-egg dynamics, geographic clustering, network effects • Vertical SaaS marketing — deep industry credibility, partnerships, community over feature comparisons • Founder-led content systems — you’ve built repurposing and distribution around a founder’s voice without losing the voice Helpful, not required • Performance marketing (Meta Ads, Google Ads, LinkedIn) • Podcast and long-form content optimization • Conversion rate optimization • Prior fractional or agency experience with early-stage clients What you’d be working with • Podcast: 59 episodes (and growing) of long-form expert content with established production workflows • Quinn AI Guide: designed character with voice synthesis and locked tagline, integrated into the platform • Companion brand: book + podcast feeding the platform’s AI knowledge base • Brand Standards v2: visual identity foundation in place • Two marketing websites — founder-built; in need of partner-driven polish or revamp • Live interactive tools on the platform site (proof of the platform philosophy) • Social presence across multiple channels — also founder-built, also needs elevation • Small email list ready to grow and segment How the founder works High standards, intense attention to detail. Every element of design, development, and brand reflects 30+ years of working on projects where one missed detail costs months and tens of thousands. Founder-engaged collaboration. Bill is present at the weekly working session, looped in on meaningful decisions, and reviewing what goes out before it ships. The partner brings finished thinking and finished work; Bill reacts, we refine, we ship. Decisions happen in days, not months. Deep respect for marketing’s value. Bill is not the founder who treats marketing as “spend” or expects magic. He’s looking for a partner whose expertise he respects, whose work he’ll back, and whose voice carries weight in decisions. Dual-vantage perspective. Bill operates from rare understanding of both homeowner and pro perspectives. Expect this to enrich every conversation about positioning, message, and audience.

This is a temporary engagement running approximately 6–8 weeks, with some overlap for handoff and context-setting.

Client-facing presence — Join key meetings as needed, leading senior-level conversations, and being prepared to present work — including performance updates that you've had a direct hand in shaping.

Type: Hourly, ongoing (part-time to full-time, room to grow) Stack you'll work in: Notion, Slack, HubSpot, Google Workspace/Gmail, Claude + other LLM APIs, Zapier/Make/n8n About us We're a fast-moving sports and fan-engagement startup. We're small, we ship quickly, and we want AI woven into how the whole company operates, not as a side experiment, but as the default way we work. You'd be the person who makes that real. What you'll do Map our current workflows across sales, marketing, ops, and content, then find the highest-leverage places to automate. Build automations and agent workflows that connect our tools (Notion, Slack, HubSpot, Gmail/Google Workspace) using platforms like Zapier, Make, or n8n plus LLM APIs. Design and ship AI agents for real jobs: lead routing and CRM enrichment, content drafting, customer/fan response triage, internal knowledge search, reporting digests. Stand up the connective tissue (prompts, integrations, guardrails, and monitoring) so automations are reliable, not brittle demos. Train and enable our team: build SOPs, run working sessions, and create lightweight docs so non-technical people actually adopt what you build. Help set our AI strategy and roadmap as we scale. You're a strong fit if you Have shipped real automations and AI agent workflows in production (not just prototypes). Are fluent with Zapier / Make / n8n and at least one major LLM API (Anthropic/Claude, OpenAI). Know your way around HubSpot, Notion, Slack, and Google Workspace integrations and APIs. Can write clean prompts and think in systems: edge cases, error handling, human-in-the-loop checkpoints. Can explain technical work to non-technical people and get them to adopt it. Communicate proactively and move fast without breaking trust on things that touch customers or revenue. Nice to have Experience taking a small company "AI-native" end to end. Background in sports and/or blockchain. Comfort with light scripting (Python/JS) when no-code hits its limits. How to apply In your proposal, please: Describe one AI agent or automation you built, the tools involved, and the measurable result. Tell us how you'd approach training a non-technical team to actually use what you build. This part matters as much as the build. Share your hourly rate and weekly availability. Proposals that skip these will be passed over. We're looking to start with a small paid task and grow the engagement from there.

I'm an AI automation expert with a growing roster of clients, and I'm bringing on a skilled freelancer to help handle the smaller projects so I can keep up with demand. This isn't a new or one-off operation. I work with many clients already, and bring on new ones every week. I'm looking for someone reliable I can hand work to consistently, not just for a single project. You should be comfortable building AI automations independently and delivering clean, working solutions for client-facing work. To apply, please: - Send a short Loom introducing yourself - Share examples of your previous automation work I review every application personally, so a quick, genuine intro goes a long way. If we're a good fit, there's steady, ongoing work here.

Project Overview We are building an AI-powered voice receptionist agent for a dental practice client. The agent will handle inbound calls 24/7 — booking, rescheduling, and canceling appointments, answering FAQs, and escalating complex situations to a human. The voice layer is built in Retell.ai and the orchestration/automation flows run in n8n, with integration into a dental practice management systems. This is a hands-on build role, not consulting. You will design, configure, and iterate the agent working directly with our founding team. What You'll Build: Conversational voice flows for new and returning patients (booking, rescheduling, cancellations, FAQs, insurance questions, urgent/emergency triage) Clean escalation paths to human staff when the agent can't handle the call n8n workflows connecting the voice agent to the practice management API for real-time schedule reads/writes HIPAA-conscious configurations and tool choices throughout the stack Performance tracking and iterative prompt/flow improvements based on real call feedback Seeking an Expert Who: You've built multiple production voice agents, ideally in healthcare or dental, and can own the full stack from architecture to delivery. You think critically about latency, barge-in behavior, edge cases, and HIPAA compliance — not just happy-path flows. Requirements: Deep expertise in Retell.ai — prompt tuning, latency optimization, interruption/barge-in handling, LLM selection, and cost modeling Advanced n8n automation — complex branching logic, dynamic data handling, external API integrations, and error recovery Experience with dental or healthcare organizations — you understand how practices operate, what front desks actually deal with, and how to translate that into agent logic HIPAA awareness — you know which tools and configurations are appropriate for PHI workflows Track record of full-cycle delivery: scoping → build → pilot → iteration Nice to have: Dentrix Ascend integration, NexHealth, prior AI receptionist or appointment-booking agent for a clinic/practice. 📋 To Apply, Please Answer Have you built a production voice agent with Retell.ai? If yes, briefly describe it. What's your approach to managing Retell.ai per-minute costs on an inbound call agent? Have you worked with dental or healthcare clients before? What was the workflow? Paste a relevant n8n workflow screenshot or describe your most complex flow.
