Business Development Manager
WebideaLocation: Remote (Must overlap 4-5 hours with US Time Zones) Job Type: Contract to Full-Time / Commission + Stipend Note for international candidates: This role requires live client calls and meetings during US business hours. If you're based in Asia/Europe, you'll need flexibility to work afternoon/evening shifts to accommodate US client schedules. The Opportunity Join Webidea Consulting at a pivotal moment. We are an established IT consulting firm expanding our North American footprint. This is a 'founding member' sales role where you will build the pipeline from scratch, supported by a global delivery team capable of executing everything from quick-turnaround web builds to complex enterprise software. We are not looking for a passive account manager. We need a 'Hunter' who can balance quick transactional wins (Web Design, Digital Marketing) with long-term consultative sales (Custom Dev, IT Infrastructure). Compensation Structure: Low Risk, High Reward We offer a tiered structure designed to reward producers immediately. Phase 1 (Months 1-3): The Ramp-Up Base Stipend: $500 - $1,000 USD/month (Guaranteed upon meeting weekly activity KPIs like calls made/meetings booked). Aggressive Commission: High % on ALL revenue. Advantage: You can start earning significant commissions in Month 1 by selling our shorter-cycle services (SEO, Web Design) while building your pipeline for larger IT deals. Phase 2 (Month 4+): Scaling Up Transition to a competitive Base Salary ($1,500 - $3,000+) + Commission. Triggered by consistent performance and pipeline maturity. Top Performers: Realistic OTE (On-Target Earnings) of $5,000 - $8,000+ per month. What You Will Sell (The Balanced Portfolio) Unlike selling a single SaaS product, you have a diversified portfolio to ensure consistent earnings: Quick Wins (Sales Cycle: 2-4 Weeks): Web Design & UI/UX (WordPress, Shopify) Digital Marketing Retainers (SEO, PPC, Social Media) Goal: Generate immediate cash flow and quick commissions. Strategic Projects (Sales Cycle: 2-6 Months): Custom Software & Mobile App Development Cloud Migration & IT Managed Services Staff Augmentation for Startups Goal: High-value contracts with significant long-term commission upside. Success Timeline & Expectations We don't expect you to close a $100k deal in week one, but we do expect momentum. Month 1 (Activation): Master the pitch. Start outbound prospecting. Goal: Book 10+ qualified meetings. Target: Close 1-2 smaller 'Quick Win' deals (e.g., a website or marketing audit). Month 2-3 (Acceleration): Goal: Consistent pipeline generation ($30k+ value). Target: Regular closing of transactional services + submitting proposals for larger custom development projects. Month 4+ (Stabilization): First major 'Strategic Deal' closing. Transition to Phase 2 Compensation (Base Salary + Comm). What You’ll Do Prospect: Identify SMBs and Startups in US/Canada using LinkedIn, Apollo, and cold outreach. Segment: Pitch Marketing/Web services to businesses needing immediate visibility, and IT/Dev services to funded startups needing tech infrastructure. Qualify & Close: Lead the full cycle. You act as the bridge between the North American client and our global technical team. Who You Are Proven B2B Sales Experience: You have sold digital services (Agency, Dev Shop, or SaaS) to the US market. The 'Hybrid' Seller: You are comfortable selling a $3,000 website (transactional) AND navigating a $50,000 software contract (consultative). Risk-Taker with a Plan: You understand that a commission-heavy start offers the highest earning potential and autonomy. Fluent English: Native or near-native level is non-negotiable for client-facing calls. About Webidea Consulting Webidea is a trademarked IT consulting and digital product firm.
