We move fast. We think long-term. We operate at a high standard.
About the Role
TalentPop is looking for a Sales Development Representative (SDR) to serve as the first point of contact for prospective customers and help convert interest into qualified sales opportunities.
This role will manage a steady stream of inbound leads while also conducting targeted outbound prospecting against a curated list of high-fit accounts. This is not a high-volume, "spray and pray" SDR role. The focus is on identifying genuine intent, understanding the prospect's needs, and converting qualified opportunities into demos for our Account Executives.
The ideal candidate is responsive, organized, commercially minded, and comfortable balancing speed with thoughtful, personalized outreach. For a high-performing SDR, this role is designed to provide a pathway toward promotion into an Account Executive position, with a target progression timeline of approximately 12 months based on performance and business needs.
Essential Functions
Own the initial qualification and engagement of inbound and outbound prospects, converting qualified opportunities into scheduled demos for Account Executives.
Maintain timely and consistent prospect follow-up across email, phone, LinkedIn, and other approved outreach channels.
Research and qualify target accounts to determine fit, identify relevant business needs, and personalize outreach accordingly.
Maintain accurate and complete CRM records, including prospect activity, qualification status, stage progression, and disposition.
Meet established activity, response-time, pipeline generation, and demo-booking expectations.
Primary Responsibilities
Respond to inbound leads quickly, with a target speed-to-lead of under five minutes during business hours, and manage follow-up until a meeting is booked or the lead is clearly disqualified.
Execute multi-touch outbound sequences across email, phone, and LinkedIn against a defined list of target accounts that align with TalentPop's ideal customer profile.
Research prospective accounts before outreach, including their business model, customer support environment, helpdesk or technology stack, team structure, and potential needs.
Maintain strong HubSpot hygiene by logging activity, updating stages, maintaining accurate prospect records, and supporting weekly pipeline reporting.
Share insights with the broader sales team regarding messaging effectiveness, prospect objections, high-converting segments, common needs, and points of funnel drop-off.
Required Experience & Skills
1+ years of experience as an SDR, BDR, or in a comparable sales development, business development, or prospecting-focused role.
Demonstrated ability to conduct multi-channel prospecting and follow-up across email, phone, LinkedIn, and related sales channels.
Experience with account-based outbound prospecting, including prioritizing target accounts, researching prospects, personalizing outreach, and executing multi-touch sequences.
Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to create personalized prospect messaging rather than relying solely on templated outreach.
Experience using HubSpot or a comparable CRM, with a track record of maintaining accurate pipeline data and meeting established activity and conversion targets.
Preferred Experience & Skills
Previous experience within E-Commerce, SaaS, agency, or technology-enabled services environments.
Experience selling products or services to DTC or E-Commerce brands.
Familiarity with the Shopify ecosystem, including common apps, platforms, and technology used by E-Commerce brands.
Experience working with sales engagement, prospecting, enrichment, or sequencing tools.
Demonstrated interest in progressing into a closing sales role, such as Account Executive.
What Success Looks Like
Success in this role will be measured by the SDR's ability to:
Consistently convert qualified inbound interest into booked demos.
Maintain an inbound speed-to-lead of under five minutes during business hours.
Generate qualified opportunities through targeted, personalized outbound prospecting.
Maintain clean and accurate HubSpot records, with every meaningful touch logged and pipeline stages kept current.
Identify and communicate trends around messaging, prospect objections, segment performance, and conversion.
Demonstrate the performance, sales skills, and commercial judgment required to progress toward an Account Executive opportunity.

🌞 Summer Fridays with shortened five-hour workdays on designated Fridays during the summer months to support work-life balance and flexibility.
