Team management

Reporting and cross-functional

• Weekly report to founder every Monday - lead volume, conversion rate by city and channel, lost lead breakdown, pipeline health, team performance

• Flag lead quality drops within 24 hours - if a campaign suddenly brings wrong-geo or price-sensitive leads, the founder and agency need to know the same day

• Work with ops team on slot availability - if slots are the constraint, escalate before it becomes a lost lead reason

• Has built or enforced a structured sales script - knows the difference between a call that converts and one that doesn't

Skills

• CRM fluency - TeleCRM, Salesforce, Leadsquared, Freshsales, or equivalent. Can set up pipelines, stages, automations, and reporting without asking IT

• Data-driven - can look at a conversion report and immediately identify whether the problem is lead quality, response time, pricing, or follow-up cadence

• WhatsApp as a sales channel - understands the difference between a message that creates urgency and one that gets ignored

• Call coaching - can listen to a 3-minute sales call and give specific, actionable feedback in 2 minutes

• Urgency creation - knows how to use slot scarcity, social proof, and seasonal triggers to move a warm lead to a booking without being pushy
