What you'll do.
You will own three live email sequences end to end — Website Redesign (SMB/SaaS), F&A Recruiting (recruiting firms), and SaaS Modernization (enterprise) — together sending 1,500–2,400 emails a week. The job is simple to state and hard to do well: reply rate, lead quality, response time. Monitor the inboxes, qualify what comes back, hand hot leads to sales, and keep improving the sequences.
- Monitor 35 Instantly inboxes and respond to qualified prospects within 2 hours.
- Triage every reply — hot lead, not interested, or needs a follow-up — and forward the hot ones to sales.
- Keep the prospect database clean: tags, notes, status, and context (company size, pain points, timeline).
- A/B test subject lines, sender names, openers, and CTAs; double down on what converts.
- Watch deliverability — bounce rate, spam complaints, sender reputation — and adjust cadence accordingly.
- Score and qualify leads (hot / warm / cold) and route them to the right owner.
- Send a weekly performance report every Friday — sends, opens, clicks, replies, qualified leads — plus a monthly trend read.
The bar is honest.
