Sales Development Representative
Job Description
We're Hiring!
Part-Time or Full-Time | Remote or In-Office Opportunities | Growth Potential
Are you a people person who enjoys conversation, building connections, and turning opportunities into results? Do you have the confidence to handle objections, the determination to keep going, and the personality to make someone's day a little better?
The Riley Taylor Agency is looking for a Sales Development Representative (SDR) to join our growing team!
As an SDR, you'll play an important role in helping our sales team connect with potential clients. Your primary responsibility will be making outbound calls, engaging in friendly conversations, identifying insurance opportunities, and connecting interested prospects with our sales team through live handoffs.
You won't be expected to close the sale yourself. Your job is to open the door, build interest, and get the right people connected with the right team member!
Who We're Looking For
We're looking for someone who is:
- Friendly and personable: You enjoy talking to people and aren't afraid to strike up a conversation.
- Confident: You can handle objections professionally without getting discouraged by a little pushback.
- Persistent: You understand that not every call will be a win, and you're ready to keep going.
- Goal-oriented: You enjoy working toward targets and celebrating your accomplishments.
- Reliable and self-motivated: You can stay productive, manage your time, and remain focused throughout your shift.
- Coachability: You're open to feedback, willing to learn, and ready to improve your skills.
- Previous sales or call center experience is helpful, but the right attitude, communication skills, and willingness to learn are just as important.
