Job Description
What BizScout Does
BizScout is a marketplace for buying and selling small businesses. We connect buyers looking for their next acquisition with business owners who are ready to sell, across industries and deal sizes. We have over 150,000 registered users and we're growing fast.
What Private Client Does
Private Client is our advisory service for serious buyers. When someone comes to BizScout with the intent to actually acquire a business, we pair them with a dedicated advisor who helps them find the right deal and close it. The engine that makes that work is supply. We need great businesses in the pipeline before buyers can buy them. That's where you come in.
The Role
You will call small business owners cold, introduce them to BizScout, and ask a simple question: would you be open to a conversation about selling your business?
That's the job. It sounds simple. It isn't easy.
Most people will hang up. Some will be rude. A few will be curious. A small number will say yes. Your job is to make that small number as large as possible, every single day, through volume, charm, and relentlessness.
You will work from a daily target list we provide, but the best reps don't stop there. You will be expected to network, ask for referrals, and find your own paths to the right conversations.
When you book a qualified meeting with Stephen Brown, our Head of Private Client, you earn a commission. When a business from your pipeline actually sells, you earn another one.
What We're Looking For
You do not need a resume full of sales experience. You need to be the kind of person who can make a stranger feel comfortable and curious within the first ten seconds of a phone call. That is either natural to you or it isn't.
Beyond that, we want someone who:
- Hates losing more than they fear rejection
- Has the discipline to make a high volume of calls every day without burning out or cutting corners
- Builds relationships instinctively, not transactionally
- Treats a no as information, not a stop sign
- Shows up to work every day ready to perform, not just participate
The Details
Location: Austin, TX (in-office, Monday through Friday, 9am to 5pm)
Base Salary: $15/hour + commission
Compensation: Base plus commission on signed NDAs
Experience Required: None. The right person is more important than the right resume.
Why This Role
Most sales jobs pay you to move product. This one pays you to open doors for business owners, considering one of the biggest decisions of their lives. That context matters. If you treat it like a numbers game only, you will wash out. If you treat every call as a real conversation with a real person, you will do well here and build a skill set that compounds for the rest of your career.
We're a small, fast-moving team. The people who thrive here take ownership, don't wait to be managed, and care about outcomes over activity.
If that sounds like you, we want to talk.
