[Hiring] B2B Cold Caller for AI Startup — $3 USD/hr + Bonuses, Long-Term Remote
Hi everyone,
I'm Asad, founder of a small AI startup based in Toronto, Canada. We're building Avidra, an AI receptionist that answers calls for small trade businesses in North America (plumbers, HVAC techs, electricians) when the owner can't pick up. Think of it as the receptionist they can't afford to hire.
I'm looking for a part-time outbound sales caller to help us reach our first 100 customers. This is long-term ongoing work, not a one-off gig. I want someone I can grow with.
**What you'll do daily:**
- Make 80-100 outbound calls per shift using our pre-researched lead list
- Use our script and objection-handling guide (full training provided)
- The goal of every call is to get permission to send our 2-minute demo video. NOT to close the sale. I close those myself via async demo afterward.
- Log every call in a Google Sheet (provided)
- Send me a daily 5-minute screen recording with 2-3 actual call recordings and the common objections you heard that day
**Requirements:**
- Strong, clear English with a neutral or North American accent. This is the most important one. Our customers are tradespeople in the US and Canada who hang up quickly on calls they can't easily understand.
- 1+ year of B2B cold calling or outbound sales experience
- Experience with VOIP tools (we provide the account)
- Comfortable with Google Sheets and screen recording tools
- Reliable internet, quiet workspace, decent headset
- 4-5 hours per day available, Monday to Friday, between 9 PM and 5 AM Manila Time (which is 9 AM to 5 PM Eastern Time, when our customers actually pick up)
- B2B outbound experience only. No real estate, insurance, or MLM.
**Compensation:**
- $3 USD per hour base, paid weekly via Wise or PayPal
- $2 bonus per qualified lead (real business owner, real contact info, agreed to receive the demo)
- $20 bonus per paid customer who signs up from a lead you generated
- $10 retention bonus when that customer stays 60+ days
A solid caller with consistent conversion can land around $5-7/hr effective rate once the bonuses are factored in.
I'll be straight with you: the base is on the lower end because we're early and bootstrapped. The bonuses are real and they're how I want this role to actually pay. If the math doesn't work for you, no hard feelings.
**Hire process:**
Apply via DM with the items below
15-minute video interview if shortlisted
Paid 1-hour live trial ($3) where we run the script together. No free work.
30-day paid probation
Long-term ongoing contract
**What I provide:**
- Full script and objection-handling guide
- Pre-researched lead list with business info
- VOIP account with a North American number
- Company email on our domain
- Standard time tracking
**How to apply (DM only — please don't reply in comments):**
A 60-90 second voice recording introducing yourself and explaining why this role fits you (Vocaroo, SoundCloud, or any audio host works)
Your years of B2B cold calling experience and the specific industries you've called into
Your typical daily call volume in past roles
Your time zone in Manila Time and the shift hours you can work
Applications without a voice recording will not be reviewed. I need to hear how you sound on a call before anything else.
Thanks for reading.
