Business Development Representative Computer Networking Services of NH, LLC Hooksett, NH Job Details Part-time $25 - $35 an hour 11 hours ago Benefits Flexible schedule Qualifications Research Business development B2B business model Telecommunication Corporate sales environment Email outreach prospecting Full Job Description We are looking for one experienced person to reopen a function this company was built on: reaching business owners and operations managers directly, starting a conversation, and setting up a meeting. You will not be closing sales. The owner and president handle those conversations personally. Your job is to get us in front of the right people. C.N.S. was established in January 1996. As the company's vision and services grew, we incorporated in December 2000 as Computer Networking Services of Merrimack, LLC. In 2011 we changed our name to Computer Networking Services of NH, LLC to more accurately reflect our broadening market. What you'll be doing Researching and building target lists of New Hampshire and northern Massachusetts businesses — primarily manufacturers, professional practices and non-profits in the 20 to 100 employee range. Writing and sending outbound email to owners, operations managers and office managers. Following up by phone — reaching the decision maker, having a real conversation, and understanding whether there's a problem we can solve. Booking qualified introductory meetings for the owner and president. Keeping records current in our CRM (Pipedrive) so we know what was said and when. Telling us what you're hearing. What objections come up, what resonates, what's a dead end. You'll be closer to the market than anyone else here. What we're looking for Two or more years of business-to-business outbound experience — appointment setting, inside sales, or business development — with a track record you can talk through. Experience selling recurring services (managed IT, telecom, copiers, payroll, insurance, merchant services) is a plus; the sales motion is the same. The ability to write a four-sentence email that gets a reply. Genuine comfort on the phone with senior people. You'll be talking to a plant manager or a practice owner, not a consumer. The judgment to hear a business problem in a conversation and know it's worth a meeting. Self-direction. You'll be working largely unsupervised, and we'll measure results, not hours logged. The arrangement 12-15 hours per week, Monday to Friday, daytime, flexible. Phone and email only — no travel, no evenings, no weekends. All equipment and systems provided. You do not need a technical background. We'll teach you what we sell. This role is deliberately part-time. We would rather have twelve focused hours from the right person than forty from the wrong one. If it goes well, there is room for it to grow.
