How to Apply

We want to get to know how you think, not just what you’ve done.

Please apply with your resume and a short note answering these prescreen questions:

  • What types of clients or companies have you sold to in the past?
  • How do you typically approach cold outreach, and how many leads do you think you could contact weekly?
  • Tell us briefly about a high-value deal you closed — what worked?
  • How do you manage your sales pipeline and follow-ups?
  • What excites you about selling creative photo/video experiences like Pop Life Photos to corporate clients?

There is no need for a formal cover letter — just your honest perspective. We're looking for someone ready to contribute and connect.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Corporate Sales & Partnerships Specialist

Q: What kind of companies or clients will I be selling to?

A: You’ll be targeting corporate event planners, marketing agencies, venues, destination management companies (DMCs), and conference organizers across the Bay Area.

Q: What tools will I use for outreach and tracking?

A: We use 17hats for CRM and sales tracking, along with Google Workspace, Canva, and Slack for internal communication. Training will be provided.

Q: How are leads provided — or am I expected to find my own?

A: You’ll work with a mix of warm inbound leads, referral partners, and outbound campaigns. You’ll also help identify new opportunities and contact lists with the CEO and marketing team.

Q: Are there minimum targets or quotas?

A: Yes, but they’re realistic and designed to help you grow. Expect weekly goals around outreach volume, discovery calls, proposals sent, and closed revenue. Performance is supported, not pressured.

Q: Will I be expected to attend events on weekends or evenings?

A: Occasionally. You may be able to attend networking mixers or sponsored activations to connect with potential clients, but these are planned in advance and not frequent.

Q: What does success in this role look like after 6 months?

A: A healthy lead pipeline, steady booked revenue above $30K/month, and strong relationships with 10–15 key corporate clients or venues. You’ll be confidently managing the full sales cycle.

Q: Do you know if this role can be done fully remote?

A: Not at this time. We’re an in-person creative studio and value collaboration — but there’s some flexibility for admin and follow-up work to be done remotely.
