Business Development & Marketing VA | Cold Calling + AI

Full-Time | Remote | $5-$9 USD Per Hour

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE POST BEFORE APPLYING. APPLICATIONS THAT DO NOT FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS MAY NOT BE CONSIDERED.

We are a growing Arizona restoration and construction company looking for an exceptional full-time Virtual Assistant who wants to become a long-term member of our team.

This is NOT a traditional administrative VA position.

Your primary goal will be helping us generate more customers, leads, appointments, and referral relationships through cold calling, prospecting, follow-up, LinkedIn, email , SMS, marketing, AI, and technology.

We don't expect you to be an expert at everything.

We DO want someone who is smart, resourceful, creative, tech-savvy, dependable, comfortable talking to people, and capable of figuring things out without needing constant direction.

EXCELLENT ENGLISH IS REQUIRED

This is extremely important.

You will regularly speak with American homeowners, customers, business owners, and potential referral partners.

You must have excellent spoken and written English and be able to communicate clearly, naturally, confidently, and professionally.

You will be making outbound calls to people who have never spoken with you before.

If your spoken English or accent makes it difficult for American customers to easily understand you, please do not apply. Spoken English will be evaluated during the first round of our hiring process.

We don't expect an American accent. We simply need customers to easily understand you and feel comfortable having a conversation with you.

Cold Calling & Business Development

You MUST be comfortable picking up the phone and talking to strangers.

You may:

  • Make outbound calls
  • Prospect for new business
  • Contact homeowners and potential customers
  • Contact plumbers, property managers, and other referral partners
  • Follow up with leads
  • Handle basic objections
  • Schedule appointments
  • Follow up by phone, email , SMS, and LinkedIn
  • Research potential prospects
  • Manage follow-up in our CRM
  • Help develop new ways to generate business

Previous cold calling, outbound sales, appointment setting, lead generation, or business development experience is strongly preferred.

We don't want someone who simply reads a script.

We want someone who can listen, ask questions, think on their feet, build rapport, and have a natural conversation.

AI & Technology

Technology will be a major part of your job.

We want someone who actively uses AI and enjoys learning new technology.

You may work with:

  • ChatGPT
  • Claude
  • Gemini
  • GoHighLevel
  • Dialpad
  • Canva
  • LinkedIn
  • CRM systems
  • Email /SMS marketing platforms
  • Automation tools
  • ----------
  • New AI tools as they become available

GoHighLevel experience is a plus, but it is NOT the main reason we will hire you.

We are not primarily looking for a web designer, funnel builder, or GHL technician.

We would rather hire an excellent communicator who is resourceful, great with people, comfortable with technology, and capable of learning.

Marketing & Outreach

You may also help with:

  • LinkedIn outreach and networking
  • Social media
  • Email marketing
  • SMS campaigns
  • Lead nurturing
  • Content creation
  • Canva graphics
  • Marketing materials
  • CRM campaigns
  • Follow-up sequences
  • Tracking campaign performance

We want someone interested in understanding what is working, what isn't, and what we should improve.

The Person We're Looking For

You should be:

  • Resourceful
  • Creative
  • Tech-savvy
  • Confident
  • Organized
  • Dependable
  • Accountable
  • Adaptable
  • Curious
  • A fast learner
  • Comfortable receiving feedback
  • Comfortable working independently
  • Willing to take ownership
  • Interested in long-term employment

If you don't know how to do something, that's okay.

We care about what you do next.

Do you research it? Ask AI? Watch tutorials? Test solutions? Figure it out?

We want someone who can eventually be given the desired result and determine how to accomplish it.

Schedule

  • Full-time, approximately 40 hours per week
  • Monday through Friday
  • Must work during Arizona business hours
  • Remote
  • Long-term opportunity

Pay

$5-$9 USD/hour depending on experience and ability.

Please include your desired hourly rate.

We are simply looking to verify that you have a professional environment suitable for full-time remote work and phone calls.

5. Internet Speed Test

Send us a screenshot of a current internet speed test showing:

  • Download speed
  • Upload speed
  • Ping

Also tell us what backup internet option you have if your primary internet goes down.

Finalists will then be invited to a live video interview.

We're looking for someone who wants more than another temporary VA job.

We want someone who can become an important long-term member of our team, continue developing their skills, take on greater responsibility, and help our company grow.
