Ignite
Remoto
Location: Remote (EU / DACH time zones) | HQ Location: Munich
Employment Type: Full-time
Salary: Up to €70,000 Base + Uncapped Commission
On-Target Earnings (OTE): €10,000+ monthly OTE (€120,000+ per year)
About Us We are a fast-scaling growth agency focused on expanding online retail brands in the DACH market. Having scaled nearly 500 brands and generated over €100M+ in measurable client revenue, our core service offerings around Google Ads and Email Marketing bring verified results and high conversion rates.
We operate according to distinct principles: Performance, Ownership, High Standards, Agility, Transparency, and Merit-Based Rewards. We value real impact over mere clock-watching. If you thrive in a remote, high-accountability system where your closing capacity dictates your take-home pay, this is your position.
The Role We are seeking a senior, self-disciplined Sales / Business Development specialist to take charge of our full-cycle outbound sales process. You will drive an Account-Based Sales (ABM) motion: targeting top DACH e-commerce brands, delivering consultative pitches around Google Ads audits, and closing premium retainer deals.
Key Responsibilities:
- Full-Cycle Outbound Sales: Drive the full sales lifecycle—from initial prospecting and lead qualification to auditing, pitching, and deal closure.
- Multi-Touch Prospecting: Deploy outbound campaigns across phone calls, customized email sequences, and LinkedIn Sales Navigator to reach German-speaking decision-makers.
- High-Volume Outreach: Keep up a strong top-of-funnel output (:100–150 daily touchpoints/dials) to lock in 1–2 qualified sales meetings daily.
- Audit-Driven Pitching: Present thorough Google Ads account audits that reveal explicit, measurable ROI potential to prospective clients.
- Pipeline & Deal Closing: Convert at least 4 new client retainers monthly (aiming for a :20% close rate on qualified leads) while managing CRM records.
- Strategic Market Feedback: Partner closely with agency founders to tweak Ideal Customer Profiles, outreach messaging, and campaign tactics.
Must-Haves:
- Language Skills: C2 / Native-level German is essential to negotiate successfully with DACH e-commerce decision-makers.
- Sales Track Record: 3–7 years of B2B sales experience, specifically within Google Ads, Performance Marketing, or similar agency services.
- Outbound Expertise: A verified track record of securing new business via direct cold outreach (rather than inbound handling or account management).
- Domain Knowledge: Clear technical understanding of Google Ads and e-commerce mechanics to lead value-driven sales conversations.
- Work Ethic & Autonomy: Excellent self-discipline and accountability in a fully remote environment, proven by a track record of high outreach volume.
- Existing contact networks among DACH e-commerce brands generating €300k–€10M in yearly revenue.
- Prior success selling additional marketing services such as Conversion Rate Optimization (CRO) or Email Marketing.
- Experience selling for established digital marketing or performance media agencies.
- Sales backgrounds limited exclusively to inbound leads or consumer (B2C) sales.
- Candidates with backgrounds strictly in Account Management, Customer Success, or operational agency execution lacking cold outbound experience.
- Sales professionals unwilling to undertake daily outbound tasks (cold dials and emails).
- Attractive Compensation: Up to €70,000 base salary for top-tier candidates matching our entire requirements profile.
- High Earning Potential: Uncapped commission system engineered to yield €10,000+ monthly OTE (€120,000+ annually).
- Strong Proof Points: Draw upon a suite of 450+ case studies and €100M+ in client revenue evidence to win prospects and close retainer contracts.
- 100% Remote Setup: Complete working flexibility within EU/DACH time zones with zero office visits required.
- Clear Upward Mobility: Rapid progression into sales leadership and managerial roles as our team expands each quarter.
