About this role

The Role

You will be the first point of contact for brands that come to WOLF wanting to reach investors. Most of your pipeline will be inbound: asset managers, ETF issuers, public companies, and fintech firms that reach out to us. Your job is to qualify them quickly, understand what they need, build a proposal that fits, and close. After the deal is signed, the account is handed to our marketing team, who manage the relationship, renewals, and upsells.

Reports to: Founder & CEO, COO, and Sales Lead.

What You'll Do

  • Qualify inbound leads

  • Respond to new inbound inquiries within one business day and book discovery calls.

  • Run discovery calls to understand the prospect's goals, audience, budget, timeline, and decision-makers.

  • Qualify or disqualify leads quickly, and route poor-fit leads to nurture or referral.

  • Build and present proposals

  • Translate client goals into tailored proposals using WOLF's packages: sponsored content, creator campaigns, interviews, livestreams, and events.

  • Work with the content and creator teams to scope deliverables and confirm feasibility before pricing.

  • Present proposals, handle objections, and negotiate within approved pricing guidelines.

  • Close and hand off

  • Drive deals to signature and coordinate contracts with leadership.

  • Hand off signed clients to the delivery team with a complete brief so campaigns launch on time.

  • Run a clean pipeline

  • Keep every lead, call, proposal, and deal stage up to date in the CRM.

  • Report weekly on pipeline, forecast, and win/loss reasons.

  • Share what you hear from clients to sharpen our packaging, pricing, and positioning.

What We're Looking For

Required

  • Experience in a closing sales role (Account Executive or similar) with a track record against quota.
  • Experience selling media, advertising, sponsorships, marketing services, or B2B services with deal sizes of $25K+.
  • Comfortable running discovery, building proposals, and negotiating with marketing and senior decision-makers.
  • Strong written communication: clear proposals, follow-ups, and recap emails.
  • Disciplined CRM habits and the self-management to thrive fully remote.

Preferred

  • Experience selling into asset managers, ETF issuers, financial services, or fintech.
  • Familiarity with creator, influencer, or podcast sponsorships.
  • Working knowledge of financial-services marketing compliance (review cycles, disclosures).
  • Interest in markets and investing.

How you work

  • You respond fast and follow up without being chased.
  • You'd rather disqualify a bad-fit lead early than chase it for months.
  • You treat clients as long-term relationships, not one-off transactions.

Compensation & Location

  • Compensation: Competitive base + uncapped commission on new-client revenue, paid monthly.
  • Pay range (required by state pay-transparency laws): Base salary range: $55,000–$75,000. Commission on new-client revenue (uncapped). Exact figures are shared with candidates early in the process.
  • Location: Fully remote (U.S.). Occasional travel to client meetings, conferences, and WOLF events.
  • Benefits: Equipment, flexible hours, company retreats.
