Sales Development Representative, Ad Studio

San Francisco, CA

About the role

About The Role 

Hightouch is looking for a Sales Development Representative to join our founding Ad-Studio team to help build the outbound motion for Hightouch's creative platform for building, editing, and launching on-brand ads at the volume performance marketing requires. You'll be a key player in helping stand up a brand-new product motion; there's no established playbook here, so you'll be working directly with leadership to build the foundational processes, messaging, and strategies as we go. You will be outbounding to performance marketers, creative and brand teams, so we are looking for someone who is highly intelligent, comfortable with ambiguity, and able to connect with multiple audiences.

What You’ll Do 

  • Outreach directly into prospective customers who fit our ideal persona (performance marketing, growth, creative, and marketing ops leaders) via cold calls, text, emails, integrated marketing campaigns, LinkedIn campaigns, and other methods

  • Work with the growth team to research and craft personalized outreach to target accounts, tying messaging to real creative and campaign pain points (creative fatigue, slow production cycles, brand consistency at scale)

  • Find creative methods, channels, and strategies to help guide prospects to a Hightouch Ad Studio demo

  • Own building the outbound playbook from the ground up, you will help shape process, messaging, tooling, and strategy for this new product rather than inherit them

  • You will be tasked with a goal and expected to execute against it on a monthly basis

What We're Looking For

  • Bachelor's degree

  • Self-starter, ability to self-motivate and build from zero in a high-growth start-up

  • Comfort operating without an established playbook and helping create one

  • Effective communication skills, both written and verbal

  • Prior experience (1+ years) engaging customers and prospects

  • Interest in tech, and ideally in marketing, advertising, or data

  • Ability to multitask, organize, and prioritize work

Even if your experience does not line up perfectly, we are still excited to have you apply. The best hires do not always check off every box of a job description.

Compensation Details

The salary range for this position is:

On-Target Earnings: $100,000 annually
Base Salary: $70,000 annually

This is location independent in accordance with our remote-first policy. We also offer meaningful equity compensation.
