About First500days

At First500days, we’re building a venture studio designed for founders, by founders.

Role Overview

As a Sales Consultant, you’ll be responsible for end-to-end sales ownership — from generating leads to closing deals, nurturing relationships, and ensuring a great client experience. This is not just about selling; it’s about understanding founder pain points, positioning value-driven solutions, and building long-term partnerships.

You should be flexible, self-motivated, and outcome-oriented ready to put in extra effort when the situation demands.

Nurture prospects through consistent engagement and relationship-building

Achieve monthly and quarterly revenue targets while maintaining a healthy pipeline

Collaborate with internal teams to refine outreach strategies and improve conversions

Maintain accurate CRM records and report on performance and pipeline health

Be flexible with work hours when required to close deals or support clients

2–3 years of experience in B2B consultative sales, preferably in a startup or agency environment

Proven ability to close deals and meet targets

Strong communication skills and confidence in handling founder-level conversations

Hands-on experience with LinkedIn-based outreach, email prospecting, and CRM tools

Ability to build and maintain long-term client relationships

Basic understanding of startups, fundraising, and growth challenges

High sense of ownership, sincerity, and flexibility in a fast-paced environment

Nice to Have

Familiarity with tools like Apollo, Sales Navigator, Notion, HubSpot, or similar

A fast-paced, ownership-driven culture with zero micromanagement
