Sales Development Representative

House Fire Solutions • Westport, CT, US

Posted 48 minutes ago

The mission: Build the partner network in our key markets. House Fire Solutions guides homeowners through the aftermath of a house fire. You build the relationships that bring us those homeowners and the partners who serve them. You get partners to open and fund an account on Fire Damage Leads, sell our subscription service to public adjusters, and keep those accounts active and spending.

This is an outreach and business development role. Nothing like it exists at most companies, so you won’t inherit a stale playbook. You’ll build and run a new revenue channel with clear daily and weekly targets, so you always know where you stand.

How the platform works:

  • Fire Damage Leads is our platform where restoration companies and real estate investors buy leads anytime. Partners fund a prepaid wallet, and each lead is deducted from their balance as it’s delivered. Leads come from aggregators and marketers across the country.

  • You’re not selling lead packages. You’re getting partners to open an account, fund it, and keep using it.

  • Other services from our ecosystem round out what you can offer.

Some partners fund right away. Others take monthly follow-up before they send clients or put money in. Part of the job is running that monthly follow-up cadence without letting anyone fall through.

How you get paid

You earn a $65,000 base, plus a 10% quarterly profit share on the accounts you brought in.

How it works:

  • Every quarter, we add up what your accounts spent on delivered leads, subtract what those leads cost us, and that’s the profit on your accounts. You earn 10% of that profit.

  • It’s based on spend, not deposits. Only money that was actually spent on delivered leads counts. Unspent balances don’t count, so refunds and unused deposits never affect your pay.

  • Returns are netted in the quarter they happen. If a lead is returned and credited back to a partner, it reduces profit for that quarter. It never reduces money you were already paid.

  • Only your accounts count. Every account is tied to you at signup, through your invite link and the owner field in our CRM. Profit from accounts you didn’t bring in isn’t part of your share.

  • Paid quarterly. Your payout arrives within [30] days after quarter end, with a one-page statement showing each account, its spend, its profit, and your 10%.

  • Public adjuster subscriptions: you earn 10% of the profit on subscriptions you bring in, on the same quarterly schedule.

  • How long it lasts: you earn the profit share on each account for [12] months from its first deposit. [or: for as long as the account stays active]

  • Upside Earning. There’s no limit on the number of accounts you build or how much you earn.

  • Your targets and rates are fixed in writing for [12] months. Any change applies only going forward, with [30] days’ written notice.

  • Base salary is never reduced. Commission is never clawed back from your base pay.

  • Misrepresentation is the one exception. If a manager finds, after review, that you misrepresented an offer to win an account, profit share on that account is forfeited.

The offer letter spells out the full definitions, including how lead cost is calculated, how returns are handled, and what happens to your accounts if you leave.

What you get:

  • A real market with real demand. Fire victims need help, and partners want to reach them.

  • A simple thing to sell: open an account, fund it, and start getting leads

  • A structured 2-week onboarding, then direct, in-office mentorship from the CEO

  • A profit share that builds as your accounts keep spending

  • A clear path to grow: [Partnership Growth Manager → Senior Partnership Manager → Partnerships Team Lead, based on the numbers below]

  • Room to grow as we expand into new cities and states

Hunting: winning new partners

  • Build a target list of fire marshals, fire departments, building inspectors, restoration companies, public adjusters, and real estate investors in each key market. [We give you a starting list by market.]

  • Reach out daily by phone, email, and in person

  • Hold discovery calls and meetings, and pitch the right offer to each partner type

  • Get restoration companies and real estate investors to open an account on Fire Damage Leads and fund it

  • Sell our subscription service to public adjusters

  • Onboard each partner so they understand how the wallet, bidding, caps, and returns work

  • Respond to inbound partner inquiries within [1 hour] during business hours

Farming: keeping accounts spending

  • Follow up with every partner every month. Watch balances and activity, and re-engage accounts that are running low or going quiet.

  • Help partners get results from their leads so they keep funding their account

  • Keep public adjuster subscribers engaged and renewing

  • Some partners will send us clients who want to join our community, work with a fire damage consultant, or sell their property as-is. Track every referral from receipt to outcome.

Protect the brand and stay compliant

  • No unauthorized commitments. You use the approved price sheet and agreement language only. No custom pricing, fees, or terms without written approval from leadership.

  • No unsupported claims. You only quote lead volume, conversion, and results that leadership has approved and can back with data. Never promise a number of jobs, leads, or returns.

  • Be clear on how the wallet works. Partners must understand how funds are deducted, how returns and refunds work, and what happens to an unused balance before they deposit.

  • Your calls are reviewed. We review every sales call in your first 30 days, then a regular sample, to coach you and protect you and the company.

  • No payments or gifts to public officials. Fire marshals, fire departments, and building inspectors are referral relationships only. You never offer them money, gifts, or anything of value.

  • Stay in our lane. We are a neutral recovery guide for homeowners. We are not a contractor, adjuster, or attorney, and you never present us as one.

  • Escalate fast. Any partner complaint, homeowner complaint, or compliance question goes to leadership the same day.

Pipeline and reporting

  • Log every partner, official, conversation, call, referral, and account in GoHighLevel (our CRM) in real time. If it’s not in the CRM, it didn’t happen.

  • Report your numbers every Friday against the weekly targets

Required

  • 2+ years of business development, outbound sales, or partnerships experience. Restoration, insurance, public adjusting, real estate, or construction industry experience is a plus. This is not an entry-level role

  • A track record of building and keeping professional relationships. You can show us partners or accounts you signed and what came of them

  • Comfortable doing high-volume daily outreach by phone, email, and in person

  • Strong written and verbal communication

  • Organized and disciplined about CRM logging and follow-up cadence

  • 3 recent professional references who can speak to your reliability and results. We call them before any offer goes out.

  • Able to work in-office in Westport, CT, Monday-Friday

Preferred

  • Existing contacts in fire restoration, insurance, real estate investing, or local government

  • Experience selling prepaid accounts, lead services, subscriptions, or other recurring-revenue services

  • Familiarity with fire, property loss, or homeowner recovery

Who thrives here

  • You own your numbers. You know your touches, conversations, funded accounts, and spend without looking them up

  • You’re a hunter who also farms. You win new partners and keep them spending, because your pay depends on both

  • You sell accounts that keep spending. You’d rather sign a partner who uses leads every month than one who deposits once and disappears

  • You sell with truth. You describe exactly what the partner gets, and nothing more

  • You build for the long game. Some partners need months of follow-up. You stay consistent when it’s slow

  • You tell us problems early. Issues get escalated the moment you see them

  • You stay inside the lines. You never promise what you haven’t been authorized to promise

  • You’re coachable

Don’t apply if...

  • You’re new to outbound sales or business development

  • You can’t show a track record of building and keeping relationships

  • You want a remote or hybrid role

  • You need someone to chase you to hit your outreach

  • You plan to take time off in your first 90 days

  • You need commission paid immediately instead of quarterly

  • You’re uncomfortable working with people who have just been through a traumatic loss

Expectations you should know up front (also written into your offer letter):

  • No vacation during the first 90 days

  • Daily activity and weekly targets are tracked and reviewed every Friday and are part of your offer

  • Profit share is paid quarterly on the accounts you brought in, based on spend on delivered leads

  • Your sales calls are reviewed. Misrepresenting an offer to win an account forfeits profit share on that account

  • Professional conduct in the office is mandatory. Theft, misconduct, or tampering with colleagues’ desks or belongings is grounds for immediate termination

  • No unauthorized commitments. Making promises on pricing, fees, or terms without written approval is grounds for termination

  • No payments or gifts to public officials. This is grounds for immediate termination
