Job Overview
We are seeking a Lead Generation Specialist and Appointment Setter for a part-time, 20-hour-per-week role focused on high-quality lead generation for U.S. small businesses. Moving away from high-dial metrics, you will prioritize meaningful engagement and rapport-building to identify prospect pain points and schedule discovery appointments.
