Become an Outbound Sales Representative
Work remotely and set your own schedule
As an Outbound Sales Representative, you’ll be calling customers of top direct-to-consumer brands. But you won’t be asked to cold-call customers. The people you’ll be calling already expressed interest in one of the products you’re selling.
In fact, they recently called to make a purchase, but decided not to due to cost. You’ll be calling those customers back, often within minutes, offering a substantial discount.
Products primarily include cookware, other household goods, and apparel.
It’s pretty simple…
- You’ll follow a script.
- You’ll present offers as they come up in the script.
- You’ll enter data into the script as the customer gives it to you.
- You’ll answer the customer’s questions, with most answers provided within the script.
- You’ll provide a scripted order summary.
- And you’ll submit the order.
That’s all there is to it. Follow the script, bring a friendly voice, and you’ll be successful.
This opportunity is available to people looking exclusively for weekend hours.
The majority of Outbound Sales Reps are making at least $13/hour, and top earners are making $30-$35/hour.
Remote & Flexible
You’ll be talking with customers and making money from the comfort and safety of your own home.
Plus you’ll enjoy flexible scheduling, where you use a self-scheduling platform to select when you work and when you don’t. You’ll have the freedom to schedule around your own needs, the needs of your family, and the important events in your life.
Hours of operation are 9:00 AM to 9:00 PM ET, Saturday and Sunday. You choose your own schedule within those hours of operation.
