We are looking for a dynamic, multi-talented Business Development Executive to lead our next phase of growth. In this role, you will be the face and voice of our brand.

- Physical Lead Generation (Offline): Conduct field visits to high-potential residential areas in Chennai (e.g., independent homes and villa communities in areas like Anna Nagar, OMR, and ECR). Connect with RWAs, set up local canopy camps, or distribute informative flyers.
- End-to-End Sales Conversion: Follow up with leads generated from both your online reels and offline field efforts. Conduct initial site evaluation discussions, explain ROI timelines, provide financial quotes, and convert prospects into signed customers.

- Language Proficiency: Absolute fluency in Tamil (compulsory for local trust-building and content) and working knowledge of English.
- Camera Confidence: Zero camera shyness. Must have a portfolio or examples of past video/reel content creation.

- Organize structural canopy meets or educational drives in Chennai neighborhoods.
- • Meet inbound leads at their property, review their current EB bills, and explain the financial payback period.

- Travel Allowance: 2,500 per month.
- Variable Incentives (The Driver):
-

- Total Expected Earning (CTC): A successful executive should easily clear 4.8 Lakhs per annum via performance incentives.

Skill Set Required

To successfully manage both on-camera content production and face-to-face field sales, the candidate must possess a unique blend of creative marketing skills and high-ticket sales hustle.

The essential skill set required for this hybrid role is:

Communication & Presentation Skills

- Strong Camera Presence: The candidate must be completely natural, energetic, and articulate on video. They need to look confident while handling a mic on a rooftop and presenting to a smartphone camera.
- Hyper-Local Language Fluency: Fluency in spoken Tamil is non-negotiable.



They must speak the local dialect comfortably to build instant trust with Chennai homeowners. They should also possess conversational English for formal client messaging and quotations.
- Storytelling & Hook Writing: The ability to break down a dry topic like "electricity bills" into an exciting 60-second video script with an attention-grabbing intro (e.g., "Are you paying more than 5,000 for your EB bill this summer?").

Mobile Content Production Skills

- Smartphone Videography: Proficiency in shooting steady, well-lit videos using a smartphone and basic accessories like a wireless collar mic (e.g., DJI or Rode) or a stabilizer/gimbal.
- Rapid Mobile Video Editing: Practical experience using intuitive mobile editing apps like CapCut, InShot, or VN Editor. They must know how to cut video clips, add trending background audio, apply auto-captions in Tamil/English, and add engaging text overlays.
- Platform Algorithm Literacy: A basic understanding of how Instagram, Facebook, and YouTube Reels work (e.g., when to use trending audio, how to use local hashtags like #ChennaiHomes or #ChennaiSolar, and how to write description copy that drives DMs).

Direct Field Sales & Negotiation Skills

- B2C Consultative Selling: Experience pitching a high-value product (ranging from 1.5 Lakhs to 5 Lakhs+) to individual property owners, villa buyers, or senior citizens.
- Objection Handling: Ability to confidently counter common consumer hesitations regarding rooftop solar, such as roof drilling fears, damage during monsoons/cyclones in Chennai, initial costs, and maintenance efforts.
- Ground-Level Prospecting: The physical stamina and "hustle" required to walk around neighborhoods, approach Resident Welfare Associations (RWAs), set up temporary weekend canopy stalls, and strike up conversations with strangers.

Technical & Commercial Aptitude

- Solar Math & ROI Calculation: Ability to look at a customer's TANGEDCO/TNEB bill, calculate their average consumption units, figure out the required solar plant size (e.g., 3kW vs 5kW), and explain the payback period (ROI) simply.
- Subsidy & Policy Navigation: Clear understanding of current government solar schemes (such as the PM Surya Ghar Muft Bijli Yojana), how the subsidy gets credited, and how the local net-metering application process works.
