Business Development Representative

Are you energized by starting conversations, building momentum, and opening doors? Do you enjoy a fast-paced, goal-driven environment where your work directly fuels sales success? If so, we’re looking for a Business Development Representative (BDR) to help build the top of the sales funnel for our franchise partners.

As a Business Development Representative, you’ll play a critical role in driving growth by identifying, engaging, and qualifying prospective clients for City Wide’s sales teams. Your focus is outbound prospecting—connecting with decision-makers, uncovering needs, and setting high-quality appointments that enable franchise sales executives to focus on discovery, proposals, and closing.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys structured goals, high activity, and measurable results—and who wants to grow into a more advanced, customer-facing sales role over time.

• Execute high-volume outbound prospecting (80+ contacts per day) via phone, email, Linked In, and other channels
• Engage decision-makers using defined talk tracks and qualification questions
• Schedule and confirm qualified sales appointments and ensure a smooth handoff to franchise sales teams
• Maintain accurate and detailed activity, notes, and outcomes in the CRM
• Partner closely with franchise owners through regular activity calls to align priorities and review progress
• Meet or exceed weekly and monthly performance goals, including activity levels and qualified appointments
• Share feedback with sales leadership on messaging effectiveness, objections, and market insights

• Engaging with a minimum of 80 individuals per day while maintaining call quality standards
• Generating an average of 20 converted leads per month
• Maintaining 100% completion and accuracy of required CRM activity and documentation

• High school diploma or equivalent required; associate or bachelor’s degree preferred
• 1–3 years of experience in outbound sales, sales development, or inside sales (B2B or franchise experience a plus)
• Strong phone presence and written communication skills with the ability to build rapport quickly
• Comfort with high-volume outreach in a fast-paced, results-driven environment
• Experience using CRM or sales engagement tools (e.g., Salesforce, Hub Spot, Dynamics, Outreach) preferred
• Highly organized, detail-oriented, and disciplined with follow-up
• Self-motivated, goal-oriented, and collaborative
• Desire to grow and advance within a sales or customer-facing career path

• Monday–Friday, 8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m. (or 7:00 a.m. – 4:00 p.m. when supporting Eastern Time)
• On-site role in a professional office environment
• Primarily sedentary work with extended computer and phone use

• Clear expectations and measurable goals
• Direct impact on sales success and business growth
• Strong partnership with franchise leadership
• Opportunity to build a foundation for long‑term career advancement
