Business Development Executive

About the job

Design Drop is an unlimited design subscription used by founders, agencies, and marketing teams across the US - graphics, branding, web design, motion graphics, and ad creatives on a flat monthly plan.

We're hiring a Business Development Executive to run cold outreach to US businesses and book qualified meetings for our closing team.

This is a first-touch outreach and appointment-setting role - not a closing role. Your job: get the right decision-makers onto a call, get them interested, and book a meeting with our closing team.

What you'll do

• Run outbound to US founders, business owners, and marketing decision-makers via cold calling, email, and LinkedIn outreach
• Introduce Design Drop's design subscription, explain services and benefits clearly, and handle first-line objections
• Identify prospects with genuine, ongoing design needs and qualify them
• Book qualified meetings on the calendar and confirm prospects show up
• Track calls, responses, follow-ups, and lead status in the CRM
• Maintain clean lead databases using CRM tools, lead trackers, and spreadsheets
• Consistently hit outreach and meeting-booking targets

What we're looking for

• 2-4 years in cold calling, appointment setting, outbound sales, or business development
• Hands-on experience with US / international market outreach (strongly preferred)
• International voice process experience is a strong plus
• Excellent spoken and written English with a neutral / global accent
• Confident opening conversations with founders, business owners, agencies, and marketing teams
• Comfortable with CRM and prospecting tools (Zoho CRM, Apollo, LinkedIn Sales Navigator a plus)
• Self-motivated and target-driven, focused on booking qualified meetings
• Basic understanding of design, branding, or marketing is a plus - this is not an entry-level role

The role

• Schedule: Mon-Fri, 6:30 PM - 3:30 AM IST (US EST coverage) Sat & Sun off
• Location: Noida - Hybrid (1-2 days onsite as per requirement, rest work from home)
• Incentives: High performance-based incentives & commissions (up to 50% on deal closures)
