Job descriptions & requirements

Responsibilities:

• Prospect daily across your assigned areas of Lagos. Identify businesses that need Solo, and walk in.
• Get to the owner or decision maker, not the receptionist.
• Qualify properly. How do they handle bookings, customers, invoices, payments and stock today, and does it actually hurt?
• Record every visit accurately: business name, owner, phone, business type, size, and what they use now.
• Demo Solo on your phone or laptop, on the spot or by appointment, tailored to the business in front of you.
• Handle the real objections: price, trust, "my staff cannot use computer", and "is my data safe".
• Close. Get the business signed up, set up, and actually using Solo.
• Follow up on every open lead until it is a yes or a clear no.
• Hit and report weekly targets on visits, demos and signups.
• Bring what you hear in the field straight back to the founder. What you learn shapes the product.

Requirements:

• At least 1 year in field sales, direct sales, merchant acquisition, FMCG sales, POS or agency banking, or similar. You have sold to a business owner face to face and carried a target.
• Comfortable with cold walk-ins. You can start a conversation with someone who did not ask for you.
• Able to explain software in plain language to someone who has never used it.
• Confident on a smartphone and a laptop, and able to learn a product well enough to demo it without notes.
• Organised. You keep your own pipeline and you log your visits honestly.
• Resilient. You will hear no far more often than yes.
• Minimum OND.
• You know Lagos and can move around it daily.
• Fluent English. Pidgin and/or Yoruba is a strong advantage.

Added Advantage:

• Sold SaaS or any subscription product.
• Sold to small businesses: salons, tailors, restaurants, clinics, gyms, retail.
• An existing network of small business owners.

Benefits:

• Remuneration: NGN 150,000-250,000 monthly gross, plus commission on what you close.
• Product training and a product that demos well.
• Direct access to the founder. Short decisions and fast feedback.
• Room to grow as the sales team grows.

About Eminent Technology

Solo is the operating system for growing businesses — appointments, customers, invoices,

payments, inventory, staff and reports in one place, run by chat. A salon owner tells Solo what needs

doing, and it does it. We're live in production with paying businesses in Nigeria, launching publicly at

www.soloapps.co, with the US next.

We're a small team with an unusual shape: most of our engineering is done by a fleet of AI agents,

which means the humans we hire do the things AI can't — sit with a business owner, earn trust, tell a

true story well.You'll work directly with the founder and alongside AI teammates every day. Early,

scrappy, fast: you'll own your whole lane.
