B2B Appointment Setter & Business Development Manager / Cold Outreach

I help small businesses and teams spend less time chasing leads and more time closing them. I've run business development and cold outreach professionally for a multitude of marketing agencies and SaaS products, but just as importantly, I've had to do it out of necessity. As the founder of my own companies and a speciality consultancy, i have the depth of the full sales cycle, from prospecting and negotiation to closing and client success. There was no one else to hand outbound to when I needed clients, I built that pipeline myself, call by call and email by email. That's a different kind of outreach experience for the client than someone who's only ever worked from someone else's script. I know what it's like to need the conversation to actually go somewhere, because the business depended on it. What I bring: - Outbound calling and email outreach that sounds like a real person, not a script - Comfortable inside CRMs (HubSpot, Zoho, GoHighLevel) with clear reporting on what's working - Experience qualifying leads against real criteria, not just booking every lead - A founder's instinct for how your business actually runs, because I've run my own. Looking for ongoing part-time contracts where I become a reliable extension of your outbound, not a one-off gig. Happy to start with a small trial batch of calls or emails so you can see the standard before committing to more.
