Business Development Executive

Business Development Executive — Shrushti Vertex

Full-time · Remote

About us:

Shrushti Vertex is a technology studio building mobile apps, web apps, SaaS products and custom ERP systems for founders and businesses around the world.

Some of our recent work: a fintech wallet with separate apps for teens, parents and merchants, and a complete ERP for a diamond business that tracks every stone across 13 stages and two cities.

The role

Our team is developers and designers. You'd be the first person whose full-time job is finding clients and talking to them.

This is a remote, full-time business development role covering outbound outreach, inbound lead handling, proposal writing and follow-ups.

Working hours are IST. On cold-calling days, your shift moves to match the business hours of the clients you're calling.

Responsibilities

1. Research potential clients and reach out by email, LinkedIn and phone. Every message starts from a real problem you found in their business, not a template.

2. Reply to inbound leads quickly, understand what they need, and get them onto a call with our team.

3. Write outreach messages and proposals. We handle the technical detail; you own the communication.

4. Follow up until there's a yes or a no. No lead goes quiet.

5. Keep the CRM current and share a short weekly update on what's working and what isn't.

Expectations

• 1–3 years in sales, business development or client-facing work, ideally in IT, software or digital services

• Strong written English. You can write a 100-word email a busy founder actually reads.

• Comfort speaking with business owners in other countries, including cold calls

• Follow-up discipline, and a thick skin about "no" and silence

• Organisation. You can keep 50+ conversations moving without dropping one.

• Self-driven. You plan your own day and report honestly, including when the numbers are low.

• Bonus: strong BDE experience in the IT industry, especially selling software, app or web development services. A basic understanding of how apps and SaaS products get built, or experience with tools like Apollo, Hunter or a CRM, also helps.

What you get

• Fully remote

• Two pay options: fixed salary plus incentives, or commission-based. We'll agree on the one that suits you.

• Incentives when you hit agreed targets

• Direct access to the people who build, so you'll see every client you bring in become a real product
