Job Posting: Cold Email Outreach Specialist (SDR)

About the Role

We are a US-based company running two businesses: a digital marketing agency serving contractors and trades companies, and a restaurant group in Georgia doing corporate catering.

We need one person to run cold outreach for both. You will build your own prospect lists, write and send cold email s, make outbound calls, handle replies, and book appointments on our calendar. You own the top of the funnel.

The work splits into two lanes:

Lane 1: Email . Cold email campaigns to home service business owners across the United States for the marketing agency.

Lane 2: Phone. Outbound calls to car dealerships, schools, churches, medical offices, construction companies, and corporate offices in the Atlanta, Georgia area to set up catering accounts. These are short, friendly calls. You are finding out who orders the food and getting our menu in front of them.

You are not closing deals. You book the meeting, we close it. Your job is to fill the calendar.

This is a long term role. We are looking for someone to grow with us, not a short contract.

What You Will Do
Build targeted prospect lists using Google Maps, business directories, and public records
Research and qualify prospects before adding them to a campaign
Write and personalize cold email sequences
Send outreach through cold email platforms (Instantly, Smartlead, or similar)
Manage inbox replies, handle basic objections, and book qualified appointments
Make outbound calls to businesses to identify the decision maker for group food orders
Get past gatekeepers politely and get names, direct email s, and order history
Send catering menus and quotes after the call, then follow up until you get an answer
Follow up consistently and persistently on warm replies
Track all activity in GoHighLevel and report numbers weekly
Suggest improvements to subject lines, offers, scripts, and targeting based on what you see working

Daily targets you will be held to:

Outbound calls: 60+
New prospects researched and added: 30+
Personalized email s sent: 60+
Replies handled same day
Requirements

Must have:

Excellent written English. Your email s will be read by American business owners. Grammar and tone matter more than anything else in this role.
Clear, confident spoken English with a neutral accent. You will be calling American businesses on the phone every day. You do not need to sound American, but you need to be easy to understand and comfortable thinking on your feet.
At least 1 year of cold email , cold calling, or appointment setting experience for a US or Western client
Experience building prospect lists from scratch
Noise-free work environment, a good headset, and stable internet. No barking dogs, no roosters, no street noise on calls.

Experience selling to home service or trades businesses (plumbing, HVAC, septic, roofing)

Experience with GoHighLevel (GHL). This is the CRM you will live in every day. Prior GHL experience moves you to the top of the list.

You are probably not a fit if:

You need a script for every situation
You have never had to hit a daily activity number
You are juggling multiple other clients
