About the role

Bytown is an AI marketing platform. Owners describe their business in plain English. Our AI agents draft a complete Google, Meta, LinkedIn, Microsoft or ChatGPT ad campaign in five minutes, and the owner approves every draft before a dollar is spent. You own the commercial side of that flow — from first sign-up to paid plan to expansion.

You're our first dedicated sales hire. You'll close, build the playbook, run onboarding calls, and tell the product team which objection is killing deals this week. No enterprise cycles, no nine-month evaluations. Plans start from $199/mo, with 30% off the first month.

What you'll do

Own the full cycle: inbound sign-up, discovery, demo, close, onboarding and expansion.
Run discovery and demo calls with founders, non-profit directors, architects and local business owners.
Close Pro and Max plans, and grow accounts into Bytown Advisors and Done for you.
Carry a monthly new-revenue target you help set. Report pipeline, win rate and sign-up-to-paid conversion every week.
Keep the CRM honest — every deal, stage and next step logged, so the forecast means something.
Build a short, living sales playbook — not a 40-page deck.
Feed objections straight back into landing pages, pricing and onboarding.

What we're looking for

3–7 years closing SMB or mid-market SaaS end to end, against a quota you owned — not support on someone else's number.
A record of hitting your number. Bring it to the first call.
High-velocity selling: many short cycles, not a few long ones.
Google Ads, Meta and LinkedIn vocabulary — or the appetite to learn it fast.
Writing sharp enough to pass for our marketing copy.
Comfort being the first sales hire in a small remote team. You build the process as you go.

Nice to have

Sold to paid-media buyers or agencies.
Sold to non-marketers — owners, founders, directors.
Spanish or French, for Canadian and US-Hispanic customers.
Been a founding or first sales hire before.

Compensation & benefits

Competitive base salary + uncapped commission. Beat your number and you keep earning.
Meaningful equity.
Remote — US & Canada.
Budget for tools and the ad spend you'll need to learn the product.
Direct access to the founders — no layers.

How we hire

Apply with your video, portfolio and LinkedIn. We watch every video.
A 30-minute call with a founder.
A short work sample drawn from real Bytown work.
Meet the team, then an offer.

How to apply

No résumé. No cover letter. Those days are over. Email hello@bytown.co with three things:

A video, 5 minutes max. Loom or similar — an unlisted link is fine. Introduce yourself and tell us why you want to work at Bytown.
Your portfolio. Anything that shows how you sell — a personal site, a public post, or a short write-up of a deal you're proud of.
Your LinkedIn profile.

If recording a video doesn't work for you, say so in your email and we'll set up an alternative.
