About MarCat
MarCat is building the technology infrastructure for India’s independent retail.
We’re starting with supermarkets and independent retailers, helping them run their stores better across sales, inventory, customers and growth.
We are at a very early stage — which means this is not a role where you inherit a finished sales playbook.
You’ll help build it. About the role
We’re hiring our first Sales & Growth hire in Ahmedabad.
You’ll work directly with the founder and own a large part of the retailer acquisition journey — from finding prospects to starting conversations, conducting demos, following up and closing.
This is a hands-on sales role for someone who enjoys being close to the customer and is comfortable figuring things out.
Your day could include a cold call with a retailer, a visit to a supermarket, a product demo, WhatsApp follow-ups, pipeline work and a conversation with the founder about what we learned. What you’ll do
Build your own pipeline of independent retailers across Ahmedabad
Prospect through cold calling, WhatsApp, LinkedIn, referrals and field visits
Speak directly with supermarket owners and decision-makers
Understand their current operations, challenges and buying behaviour
Conduct product demonstrations and communicate MarCat’s value clearly
Own follow-ups and move opportunities toward closure
Maintain accurate pipeline and CRM activity
Learn from objections, lost deals and customer conversations
Share market feedback with the founder and product team
Help build a repeatable retailer acquisition process as we grow Who we’re looking for
We’re looking for sales ability and ownership more than a particular degree.
You may be a strong fit if you have:
6 months–3 years of experience in sales / business development
Experience in SaaS, ERP, POS, FMCG, merchant-tech, distribution or B2B sales is a solid plus
Comfort with cold outreach and rejection
Strong communication in Gujarati, Hindi and English
Confidence speaking with business owners
Willingness to travel locally across Ahmedabad
Strong follow-up discipline A bias toward action and willingness to work without constant supervision
You’ll stand out if you have
Sold software or business solutions to SMBs / retailers
Experience in field sales
Consistently achieved or exceeded sales targets
Built pipeline through outbound prospecting
Experience working in an early-stage startup A track record of being a top performer
What this role is NOT
This is not a traditional lead-management BDE role.
You won’t be handed a large list of qualified leads and asked to work through it.
You’ll be expected to hunt, sell, learn and close.
What you’ll get
Work directly with the founder
Ownership from day one
Exposure to the entire sales cycle A chance to shape MarCat’s GTM motion
Performance-based earning upside
Significant responsibility as one of the first members of the team
If you’re looking for a predictable sales job, this probably isn’t the right role.
If you want to build, sell, learn quickly and have your work directly influence the growth of an early-stage company, we’d like to meet you.
Compensation
₹18,000/month fixed + performance incentives
Local travel expenses reimbursed as applicable.
