B2B Telesales - UK Charity/SME Sector

Job ID: 34990284

Budget: £10 – £15 GBP

UK charity sector suppliers are far fewer than the commercial sector, but with 34k members growing at a rate of 2k a month, Charity Excellence is the largest and fastest growing UK charity community. We also have very significant reach via multiple channels, and we've set our prices very low to break into the market.
I've no sales experience and am on the autism spectrum, so don't really 'do people', but I've been selling our ads, so we know we have a very good proposition. I'm also hugely busy, so I'm looking for someone to cold contact suppliers and sell them ads. I fund everything myself, so I'm looking for a day's work to test the market. Assuming it works well, we'll make this an ongoing flexible, role. My annual projections for annual ad income are £45k (25% of capacity sold) to £120k (50% of capacity sold).
I have a decent prospect list of web links to companies. I don't need any high-level sales skills, but you will have a strong track record in telesales and be able to call companies up and sell newsletter website ads to them. Experience of working in the charity sector would be a bonus.
The majority of companies will be small to medium businesses across a range of sectors, from digital and websites to finance and HR. We’re national. Regional providers would be fine, but we’d be less attractive to them.
I've a media pack, attached, but we can also offer opportunities not in this. Our introductory offer is a newsletter ad of 50 words and an image for £199 in the weekly newsletter: circulation 30k, open rate 33%. That's really cheap and also with far greater reach than the main sector ads sellers.
