Key Responsibilities
- Own a named list of enterprise brands (large D2C, omnichannel retail, marketplaces-plus-D2C) and build pipeline into them.
- Run the full cycle: discovery, multi-stakeholder mapping (CMO, CX head, CTO, procurement), demos, pilots, commercials and close.
- Sell outcomes, not features: automation rate, cost per resolution, repeat revenue on WhatsApp, influenced revenue.
- Use our free CX audit and paid pilots to land accounts, then convert pilots into annual contracts.
- Work with solutions and pre-sales on scoping, security reviews and custom agent proposals.
- Build relationships with agencies, Shopify and platform partners, and system integrators that influence enterprise buyers.

- Existing network among India's D2C, retail or ecommerce leadership.
- Experience with long, multi-stakeholder sales cycles and procurement.
- Strong understanding of CX, marketing automation or WhatsApp commerce in India.
- Comfortable presenting to CXOs and negotiating commercials independently.
- Quota-carrying history with numbers you can share (quota, attainment, average deal size).
Nice to have
- Familiarity with a structured sales methodology (MEDDICC or similar).
- Experience selling in a competitive B2B SaaS landscape, particularly across CX, marketing automation, conversational AI, or customer engagement platforms.
Success Metrics: First 6 Months
- Qualified enterprise pipeline built.
- Pilots started and pilot-to-annual conversion rate.
- New enterprise ARR closed against quota.
