About Art of Puja

Art of Puja is a fast-growing D2C spiritual lifestyle and gifting brand building thoughtfully designed products rooted in Indian culture and traditions.

From modern puja essentials and fragrances to festive gift boxes and corporate gifting solutions, we work across D2C, marketplaces, quick commerce, retail, hospitality and B2B gifting.

Our corporate and hospitality partnerships have included brands such as Coca-Cola, Bajaj, ITC, Axis Bank, Chaayos, Blue Tokai and leading hotels, among others.

With the festive season around the corner, we're looking for energetic interns who want to experience how sales actually happens — from finding the right client to pitching, following up, negotiating and eventually closing business.

What You’ll Do

You won’t be sitting on the sidelines.

You’ll work closely with the founders and sales team on live B2B opportunities and will:

- Identify and reach out to potential corporate gifting clients, hotels, gifting agencies and businesses.
- Connect with decision-makers through calls, LinkedIn, WhatsApp and email.
- Pitch Art of Puja's festive gifting collections and customised gifting solutions.
- Share catalogues, proposals, samples and quotations with prospective clients.
- Follow up consistently with leads and move conversations through the sales pipeline.
- Understand client requirements, quantities, budgets and timelines.
- Help coordinate sampling and customisation requirements internally.
- Maintain and update lead and follow-up trackers.
- Support the team during client meetings,



exhibitions and other business-development activities.
- Learn how B2B deals move from the first conversation to commercial closure.

Who We’re Looking For

Someone who

- Enjoys talking to people and is comfortable starting conversations.
- Has robust verbal and written communication skills.
- Is confident using calls, WhatsApp, email and LinkedIn for outreach.
- Is proactive and doesn't need to be reminded to follow up.
- Is organised and comfortable maintaining sales trackers.
- Has curiosity about startups, brands, sales, marketing or entrepreneurship.
- Can work in a fast-paced environment where things move quickly.

You do not need prior sales experience. We care more about energy, ownership, communication skills and willingness to learn.

What You'll Learn

This is not an internship where you'll just observe meetings.

You'll get hands-on exposure to:

- B2B sales
- Corporate gifting
- Client prospecting
- Cold outreach
- Sales pitches
- Negotiations
- CRM & pipeline management
- Client servicing
- Business partnerships
- Working directly with a growing D2C brand

You'll also understand what happens behind the scenes when a brand works with corporates, hotels, gifting companies and large institutional clients.

Why Join Us?

If you’re someone who wants to understand how businesses actually acquire clients and make sales, this role will give you significantly more real-world exposure than a typical classroom internship.

It's especially suited for someone who wants to eventually work in sales, business development, marketing, startups or entrepreneurship.

This is a paid internship.

If this sounds like something you'd enjoy, we'd love to hear from you.**
