What You’ll Actually Do Every Day:

• Scrape and verify B2B leads using LinkedIn, Apollo, Google, trade portals.
• Message, email, call — until you get a

  meeting booked.

• Run Zoom/Google Meet pitches

  with distributors overseas.
• Send pricing, negotiate MOQs, finalize terms.
• Coordinate shipments with freight/logistics partners.

If “follow-up” feels uncomfortable, this is not your arena.

Who You Need to Be

• Hungry

  to win

  , not just “learn.”
• Comfortable with

  uncertainty, ambiguity, and night-shift communication.

• Able to think strategically

  and

  act fast

  — like

  IIT Delhi startup culture

  , but you don’t need to be from IIT.
• Confident speaking directly with overseas decision-makers.

• Self-driven

  — no one is babysitting you here.

Don’t apply.

Compensation

This role is:

Performance-first. No promises, no fluff.

• Equity & Profit Sharing

  for those who

  close deals

  , not those who “try.”
• Revenue milestones → equity unlock tiers.
• You prove ownership →

  You join as Co-Founder, International Business.

• If that scares you → perfect. That means the amateurs won’t apply.
