Guard Llama is a young, energetic start-up based in Chicago making an enormous impact on the personal security market. We provide what we like to refer to as a “mobile panic button.” “But what exactly is a mobile panic button?” you ask. Wow, what an insightful question. You must be incredibly smart and good looking. 

A mobile panic button is a small, bluetooth remote with a single button. It is designed to look like a car key fob and it pairs with our app on your smartphone. In an emergency, you press the button on the remote, and it triggers our app to send an immediate, emergency distress signal to our 24/7 dispatch center. Our dispatch then send the police to your exact GPS location.

Our success depends upon an outside sales team delivering in-person presentations of our service to real estate agents during their weekly or monthly sales meetings. But this success is dependent upon our ability to arrange these presentations in advance. We are looking for motivated, experienced individuals with backgrounds in phone sales, marketing, and/or telecommunications to call and help us book these meetings. The ideal candidate will be personable, persuasive, and motivated to make 50+ calls a day.

Requirements:

Experience in sales, marketing, or telecommunications

Able to work from our office in Merchandise Mart

Familiarity with or ability to learn digital calling platforms

Compensation:

This is a draw against commission-based position. Candidates will be paid $50-$100 for each meeting booked. You will be expected to book a minimum of 15 meetings each week. Obviously, the more meetings you book, the greater your compensation.
