What are the responsibilities and job description for the Director of Sales position at Rilla?
Who We Are
Rilla’s the leading virtual ridealong software for outside sales. Think solar, roofing, real estate, and other sales people who talk to customers face to face.
They talk, our mobile app records their conversations, and our AI automatically transcribes and analyzes their conversations to help them improve their sales.
Our vision is to bring the power of conversation intelligence from the Zoom meeting and the call center to the more than 10M sales people who work offline.
We’re growing 20% MoM, have dozens of customers including Fortune 500 companies, Net Revenue Retention above 150%, an NPS higher than the iPhone’s, and we are cash flow positive!
We are one of the fastest growing startups in the world right now and in history.
We’re backed by Byron Deeter (one of the best investors of all time) from Bessemer Venture Partners, the top Cloud investor in the world.
And we’re a Cloud 100 Rising Star company.
Who You Are
The role
“Startup equals growth” - Paul Graham.
In our case, growth equals sales.
Since we started selling in 2022, we’ve been growing 89% MoM. It is still growing at 20% MoM after surpassing seven figures in annual recurring revenue.
We are growing insanely fast.
But still, we’re not growing quickly enough.
The main reason is we’ve only had one person doing all our sales.
Right now, we have so much demand for our product that we don’t have the time to close all of the leads coming through our pipeline.
Your job will be to help us grow faster. You will work alongside our CEO to help us build our first sales team.
You will hire, onboard, and train new reps consistently.
You will get your hands dirty.
You will hop on customer demos, do cold calls, and help us close key deals.
You will lead by example.
You will do whatever it takes to maximize the rate at which we spread the gospel of conversation intelligence for the physical world.
