About Folks
Folks is a rapidly growing Quebec-based tech leader revolutionizing HR for Canadian SMEs. Our all-in-one SaaS platform features over 30 modules centralizing the employee lifecycle for 1,300+ clients nationwide—allowing companies to focus on their people.
The Mission
Reporting to the Sales Director, you are the first human voice an Ontario prospect hears from Folks. Your mission: earn attention on the phone, qualify needs quickly, and schedule qualified meetings for our Account Executives.
This is a fully remote role requiring residence in Ontario. We provide a complete home office setup (laptop, headset, dual screens) and bring the team together a few times a year for gatherings in Quebec and HR industry events.
Here is the realistic picture:
- The Phone is Your Sole Channel: Expect 60–80 dials per day. You do not build lists, write email sequences, or prospect on LinkedIn—pre-qualified lists are loaded into Apollo and Pipedrive for you.
- High Rejection, Fast Handoffs: You will hear "no" frequently. Your job is to qualify against our Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) and pass the lead off. The full discovery process belongs to the AE.
- Calling Hours: Prospects answer between 8:00 AM and 5:00 PM ET. Your daily blocks mirror these hours.
- True Remote Autonomy: No micromanagement or office noise. You need the internal drive to pick up the phone on tough afternoons.
Compensation:
- $50,000 fixed base salary
- $200 per meeting held & qualified (uncapped)
- $80,000 target OTE (plus a 3-month ramp allowance on top of your bonuses while you learn)
Your Impact (Daily Responsibilities)
- High-Volume Execution: Consistently complete 60–80 dials daily from provided prospect lists.
- Engage & Qualify: Hook decision-makers in 30 seconds, articulate HRIS value, and qualify against ICP (company size, HR pain, timing, decision-maker).
- AE Handoffs: Book meetings and deliver concise briefing notes to Account Executives.
- CRM Hygiene: Log all call outcomes, notes, and follow-ups in Apollo and Pipedrive daily.
- Skill Sharpening: Participate in call reviews, role-plays, and internal coaching to hit and exceed call volume, conversation, and meeting targets.
Who You Are
- 0–24 Months Sales Experience: B2B or tech sales is a plus, but drive and attitude matter most.
- Ontario-Based: Residing in the province and available during Eastern Time business hours.
- Phone-First & Resilient: You prefer talking over typing, handle rejection constructively, and maintain energy throughout the day.
- Self-Disciplined Remote Worker: You have a quiet dedicated workspace, structure your days independently, and communicate proactively.
- Coachable: You welcome constructive call feedback and apply it immediately.
This Role Isn’t For You If…
- You prefer LinkedIn/email outreach over cold calling.
- You want to manage the entire sales cycle from lead to close.
- High-volume repetition drains your energy.
- You rely on an in-person office environment to stay motivated.
Bonus Points
- Prior SDR/BDR, call center, or inside sales experience.
- Hands-on experience with Pipedrive, Apollo, or similar CRMs.
- Knowledge of or interest in Human Resources.
- Proven track record in a remote working environment.
