About the role

Who We Are

Popl is defining a new category we call In-Person Go-To-Market. We help revenue teams turn real-world interactions — trade shows, conferences, field events, and meetings — into measurable pipeline and revenue. Our AI-native platform powers event lead capture, enrichment, and real-time CRM sync, transforming every badge scan into a high-quality, actionable lead.

In a world where digital channels are saturated, we're building the infrastructure that makes in-person GTM measurable, scalable, and revenue-driving. Our mission is simple: help companies around the world turn in-person events into a measurable & scalable growth channel.

About the Role

We are looking for a hungry, high-energy, early-career Sales Development Representative (SDR) to join our fast-growing team! In this role, you’ll be on the front lines of our revenue engine—engaging our plentiful supply of warm marketing leads, booking meetings, and helping Popl scale during a hyper-growth phase.

This is a great fit for someone early in their career who’s excited about sales, motivated by performance-based compensation, and eager to learn how modern SaaS revenue teams operate. Your impact will be immediate and highly visible across the organization.

What You’ll Do

  • Call Warm Leads & Book Meetings: Engage warm marketing leads via phone, email, and LinkedIn to book demo meetings for our sales team
  • Own First Touch: Serve as the first point of contact for potential customers, uncovering pain points and clearly communicating how Popl helps teams win in-person
  • Drive Pipeline: Set high-quality meetings for Account Executives and directly contribute to pipeline and revenue growth
  • Content Creation: Record your best sales calls and collaborate with marketing to publish LinkedIn content twice per week to drive brand awareness and inbound demand
  • Outbound Prospecting (After Ramp): Progress into outbound and cold outreach, targeting event marketers, new event hires, and companies investing in events & conferences
  • CRM Hygiene: Maintain accurate and organized records in HubSpot & Salesforce, ensuring clean data across contacts and activities
  • Collaborate: Work closely with sales, marketing, and leadership to refine messaging, targeting, and outreach strategy

What We’re Looking For

  • 2+ years in a customer-facing sales role (preferably in SaaS or tech)
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills
  • Comfortable on the phone and eager to improve through coaching
  • Self-starter mindset: hungry, curious, proactive, and coachable
  • Excited about earning commission based on performance
  • Willingness to learn modern sales tools and processes

Nice to Haves

  • Prior SDR, BDR, or customer-facing experience

  • Familiarity with tools like Salesforce, HubSpot, Apollo, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, or similar

    Interest in personal branding, content creation, or social selling

Why Join Us?

  • Be part of a rocket-ship startup redefining how professionals connect and grow

  • Work closely with experienced leaders

  • Make a measurable impact in a role critical to our long-term success.

  • Full insurance & benefits + 401K for all employees

  • Free $150/month wellness credit

  • Competitive salary

  • Meaningful equity

  • Unlimited PTO

  • Fully remote

  • Constant daily learning
