Remote Sales Assistant information

What is a remote sales assistant?

Remote sales assistants are professionals who support sales teams and processes from a remote location, usually working from home or another offsite environment. Their responsibilities often include managing customer communications, processing orders, scheduling appointments, updating customer records, and assisting with lead generation. They use digital tools such as CRM systems, email, and video conferencing to interact with clients and sales staff. This role allows companies to access talent from different locations and provides employees with flexible work arrangements.

How do remote sales assistants typically collaborate with sales teams and clients while working off-site?

Remote Sales Assistants frequently use digital tools such as CRM software, email, video conferencing, and instant messaging platforms to maintain seamless communication with both internal sales teams and external clients. They often participate in virtual meetings, provide real-time updates on leads and sales progress, and coordinate follow-ups or documentation. Building strong relationships remotely requires proactive communication, effective time management, and responsiveness, as well as familiarity with collaborative technologies. This remote structure allows for flexibility but also demands self-motivation and the ability to work independently while remaining aligned with team goals.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a remote sales assistant, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Sales Assistant, you need strong communication skills, customer service experience, and a basic understanding of sales principles, often supported by a high school diploma or equivalent. Familiarity with CRM software, email platforms, and virtual meeting tools is typically required for managing leads and client interactions effectively. Proactive problem-solving, time management, and adaptability are standout soft skills in this role. These abilities ensure efficient remote collaboration, high customer satisfaction, and successful sales support in a virtual environment.

Job description

Wing Assistant is building the next generation of AI-enabled workforce solutions for growing businesses. We help companies get high-quality support across roles like executive assistance, admin support, customer support, sales support, recruiting support, operations support, and other business functions.

Our growth depends on a steady flow of qualified opportunities, and we are hiring a Go-to-Market Associate to help create them. This person will sit at the front line of our revenue motion: identifying companies with active hiring needs, reaching out with a compelling alternative to traditional hiring, and booking qualified meetings for our sales team.

This is a high-energy, high-ownership role for someone early in their career who wants to learn fast, build real outbound skills, and grow into bigger roles across sales, growth, revenue, or go-to-market strategy over time.

It is a great fit for someone who is competitive, well-organized, motivated by clear targets, and genuinely curious about how AI, remote talent, and global workforce solutions are changing the way companies build teams.

What You'll Do

Generate Qualified Opportunities

  • Identify companies actively hiring for roles Wing can support, such as Executive Assistants, Admin Assistants, Customer Support, Sales Support, Recruiting Support, Operations Support, and other business support roles.
  • Use job postings, hiring signals, company growth signals, and account research to find strong-fit prospects.
  • Research target accounts to understand what they are hiring for, why they may need support, and where Wing could be a strong fit.
  • Reach out to prospective customers across email, phone, LinkedIn, and other outbound channels.
  • Run focused outbound campaigns around active hiring needs, operational pain points, and alternative workforce solutions.
  • Hold early discovery conversations to understand a prospect's hiring needs, pain points, urgency, and openness to remote talent or AI-enabled workforce solutions.
  • Communicate what Wing Assistant does and why it matters clearly enough to earn the next meeting.
  • Book qualified appointments with companies that have a clear hiring need, relevant business use case, or strong fit for Wing.

Turn Hiring Intent Into Conversations

  • Monitor companies that are posting roles Wing can service.
  • Understand what the company is likely trying to solve by hiring that role.
  • Position Wing as a faster, more flexible, and more scalable alternative to traditional hiring.
  • Educate prospects who may not have considered remote assistants, virtual assistants, offshore talent, or AI-enabled workforce support before.
  • Create curiosity with founders, executives, operators, HR leaders, recruiting teams, and department heads.

Support the Revenue Team

  • Work closely with the sales team to build and protect a healthy, well-qualified pipeline.
  • Hand off opportunities cleanly, with the context needed to move conversations forward.
  • Share key details from discovery calls, including the role the company is hiring for, their current hiring process, pain points, timing, budget signals, and decision-makers involved.
  • Keep activity, notes, and pipeline data accurate and current in our CRM.

Bring the Market Back In

  • Feed what you are hearing from prospects back to the Sales, Marketing, and Product teams.
  • Help refine messaging and outreach based on what is actually landing with companies.
  • Identify patterns in hiring demand, objections, industries, and roles where Wing is resonating.
  • Suggest new outbound angles based on job postings, hiring trends, and prospect conversations.
What We're Looking For

Core Requirements

  • 1 to 4+ years in sales, appointment setting, cold calling, recruiting, staffing, lead generation, outbound marketing, growth, or a comparable role.
  • A real interest in go-to-market strategy, pipeline generation, and B2B growth.
  • Proven background in prospecting, cold calling, appointment setting, or high-volume outbound outreach.
  • Strong written and verbal communication; you can get to the point and make it compelling.
  • Comfort reaching out to companies that may not have considered remote assistants, virtual assistants, offshore talent, or AI-enabled workforce solutions before.
  • Strong research skills and the ability to turn hiring signals into relevant outbound messaging.
  • Strong organization and the resilience to keep going when a day does not go your way.
  • The drive that comes from chasing clear goals, activity metrics, and booked meeting targets.
  • The ability to run your own desk while still collaborating well across teams.
  • A genuine eagerness to learn the product, the market, and the craft of go-to-market execution quickly.
 

Nice to Have

  • Exposure to staffing companies, recruiting firms, BPOs, outsourcing companies, virtual assistant companies, digital agent companies, or high-ticket professional services organizations.
  • Familiarity with CRM and sales engagement tools such as HubSpot, Salesforce, Outreach, Salesloft, Apollo, Instantly, Clay, Close, or LinkedIn Sales Navigator.
  • Familiarity with auto dialers, power dialers, cold calling workflows, and high-volume outbound systems.
  • Experience prospecting into founders, executives, operations leaders, HR leaders, recruiting teams, customer support leaders, sales leaders, or department heads.
  • Awareness of business support workflows such as executive assistance, admin support, sales support, customer support, recruiting coordination, inbox/calendar management, and back-office operations.
$1,200 - $2,500 a month

In addition to base compensation, this role includes performance-based incentives tied to qualified meetings, sales outcomes, and weekly activity targets.

Appointment and Deal Bonuses

  • Earn a bonus for every qualified meeting that shows up.
  • Earn an additional bonus when a qualified meeting turns into a closed customer.

This means you are rewarded not just for booking activity, but for creating real opportunities that move through the revenue process.

Weekly Competitions

We also run weekly competitions to keep the team competitive, motivated, and focused on the right activity metrics.

  • Weekly bonus opportunity for top dial activity.
  • Weekly bonus opportunity for top meeting production.

These incentives are designed for people who are driven by targets, enjoy competition, and want direct upside from their effort.

We may use artificial intelligence (AI) tools to support parts of the hiring process, such as reviewing applications, analyzing resumes, or assessing responses and identifying potential inconsistencies or verification signals in application materials based on available information. These tools assist our recruitment team but do not replace human judgment. Final hiring decisions are ultimately made by humans. If you would like more information about how your data is processed, please contact us.
