Sales Development Representative (Remote)

The M&A Sales Development Representative is a strategic growth role at Intelligent Technical Solutions (ITS), focused on identifying and engaging potential acquisition targets. Unlike traditional sales, this role centers on building high-level relationships with IT business owners and industry brokers to discuss the future of their organizations. Your primary goal is to act as a professional ambassador for ITS, initiating conversations that lead to successful mergers or acquisitions. The ideal candidate is a disciplined, remote-first professional who values meaningful engagement over scripted outreach and can communicate with executive-level presence.

  • Initiate and maintain high-volume outreach to achieve a minimum of 40 quality conversations per day with business owners and decision-makers. 
• Broker & Intermediary Networking
  
  • Proactively identify and engage with business brokers to build a long-term deal flow of "off-market" acquisition opportunities. 
• Growth-Focused Outreach
  
  • Communicate the ITS value proposition as a strategic partner, focusing on how companies can join or merge with us to enhance their cybersecurity and operational scale.
• Target Qualification
  
  • Vet potential acquisition targets based on core criteria, including headcount, existing IT infrastructure, and their openness to strategic transition.

  • Execute personalized "Smart Outreach" strategies (deep research and tailored follow-ups) specifically for 2nd First Time Appointments (FTAs) to ensure high-quality deal flow. 
• Resilient Objection Handling
  
  • Navigate common industry pushback by shifting the focus from "selling a service" to "exploring a strategic partnership or exit strategy." 
• Pipeline Stewardship

• CRM Accuracy
  
  • Maintain meticulous records in HubSpot, capturing business intelligence and conversation history to support the long-term M&A pipeline. 

• Professional Presence: Comfortable engaging directly with business owners, CEOs, and seasoned business brokers. 
• Outbound Experience: 2+ years in a high-volume outbound role. Business development, recruitment, or similar where building relationships from scratch was part of the job.
• Resilience & Discipline: Consistent and self-directed. Able to hit targets in a remote environment, manage a pipeline with minimal supervision, and treat setbacks as part of the process.
• Strong Communication: Exceptional verbal and written English, with the ability to explain complex concepts (like M&A or Cybersecurity) in a clear, relatable way.
• Technical Adaptability: A fast learner who can quickly become comfortable with MSP terminology and basic financial concepts (e.g., EBITDA, recurring revenue).
• Tool Proficiency: Hands-on experience using HubSpot for CRM and ZoomInfo for lead intelligence, or similar tools, is a must.
• Collaborative Spirit: A team player who aligns with ITS Core Values.
