About Muse Web Studio
Muse Web Studio is a web design and development studio helping businesses build, improve, and strengthen their online presence.
We provide website design, redesigns, web development, e-commerce solutions, and digital experiences for businesses across different industries.
We're looking for a proactive B2B Lead Generation & Sales Development Specialist who can identify potential clients, initiate conversations, qualify prospects, and generate genuine sales opportunities.
This is not simply a data-entry or contact-list-building position. We want someone who can take a prospect from initial research to a genuine buying opportunity.
You will handle prospecting, outreach, initial conversations, and qualification. The founder will handle consultations, proposals, negotiations, and closing.
1. Responsibilities
Lead Research & Generation
Identify businesses that need a new website, redesign, or improved online presence.
Research businesses with outdated websites, poor user experiences, or no website.
Identify growing businesses, founders, owners, and decision-makers.
Build organized prospect lists with accurate contact information.
Explore opportunities across beauty, hair, e-commerce, professional services, and other relevant industries.
Lead Verification
Verify that businesses are legitimate and actively operating.
Confirm contact details and identify relevant decision-makers.
Review existing websites and identify potential improvement opportunities.
Establish a genuine reason why each business could benefit from our services.
Avoid duplicate, irrelevant, or unqualified prospects.
Outreach & Communication
Personally contact prospects through cold email, LinkedIn, business social media, and other relevant channels.
Introduce Muse Web Studio and our services.
Start personalized conversations with potential clients.
Identify website-related challenges, requirements, and business goals.
Follow up with interested prospects and answer initial questions.
Establish genuine interest and buying intent.
We prioritize personalized outreach and meaningful conversations over mass messaging and generic automated campaigns.
Lead Qualification
Before handing a prospect over to Muse, you must establish:
Whether the business genuinely needs our services.
Whether the decision-maker is interested in exploring a solution.
Whether they have an identified project or requirement.
Whether they have a realistic budget or willingness to invest.
Whether they are prepared to move forward within a reasonable timeframe.
Whether they are willing to speak directly with Muse Web Studio.
Qualified Lead Handoff
Once a prospect is qualified, you will introduce them to the founder.
Each handoff should include:
Business name and website.
Decision-maker's name and contact information.
Summary of the conversation.
Identified project requirements.
Budget expectations, if established.
Project timeline and buying intent.
Any objections or questions raised.
The founder will handle the sales consultation, proposals, negotiations, and final closing.
2. What Counts as a Qualified Lead?
We do not pay for raw contact lists or unresponsive prospects.
A qualified lead must:
Represent a legitimate business.
Have a relevant need for website design or development.
Have personally responded to outreach.
Express genuine interest in exploring our services.
Demonstrate reasonable financial readiness or willingness to invest.
Have an identified project requirement or intention to move forward.
Agree to communicate with Muse Web Studio about the project.
All qualified submissions are subject to review and approval by Muse Web Studio.
3. Compensation: 25% Commission
The position begins on a commission-only basis.
You receive 25% commission for every successfully acquired client directly attributed to your prospecting and outreach efforts.
Payment process:
You identify and research a potential client.
You contact and qualify the prospect.
You introduce the prospect to Muse Web Studio.
The founder conducts the consultation and closes the client.
The client signs the agreement and pays the initial project deposit.
Your 25% commission becomes payable once the deposit has successfully cleared.
Commission is calculated on the initial deposit actually received by Muse Web Studio, not the total proposed project value.
Payments will be processed through the agreed Upwork-compatible contract and payment arrangements.
4. Full-Time Opportunity: $500 Monthly Base Salary
We are interested in developing a long-term relationship with someone who can consistently generate business for the studio.
High-performing specialists will have the opportunity to transition into a full-time position with:
$500 monthly base salary.
Continued 25% commission on successfully acquired clients.
Opportunities for increased responsibilities and compensation as the studio grows.
The transition is performance-based and requires consistently achieving the agreed monthly target for successfully acquired, paying clients.
Additional requirements include:
Consistent delivery of qualified prospects.
Strong follow-up and prospect management.
Organized pipeline reporting.
Professional communication.
Reliable and consistent performance.
The base salary is not guaranteed during the initial commission-only period. It becomes available once the agreed performance requirements are met and the full-time arrangement is formally established.
5. Performance & Reporting
We value quality, consistency, and measurable results.
You will be expected to:
Maintain an organized prospect database.
Track outreach, responses, and follow-ups.
Document qualified leads and their status.
Provide regular progress reports.
Maintain professional communication.
Work toward agreed monthly acquisition targets.
Our goal is to build a consistent and repeatable client acquisition pipeline.
6. Ideal Candidate
We are looking for someone with:
Previous B2B lead generation or sales development experience.
Experience as an SDR or appointment setter.
Strong written and verbal communication skills.
Confidence communicating with business owners and decision-makers.
Excellent research and organizational abilities.
Familiarity with LinkedIn prospecting, CRM systems, and lead verification tools.
The ability to work independently and consistently.
Experience selling web design, web development, digital services, SaaS, or other B2B services is a major advantage.
7. Long-Term Potential
This is an opportunity to become part of a growing web studio rather than take on a one-off assignment.
Strong performance may lead to:
Full-time employment.
$500 monthly base salary alongside commission.
Greater involvement in sales development.
Increased responsibilities.
Long-term growth opportunities within Muse Web Studio.
8. How to Apply
Please answer the following in your proposal:
Describe your experience in B2B lead generation, sales development, or appointment setting.
Have you generated clients for web design, development, or digital agencies before?
What tools do you use to find, research, and verify prospects?
How do you approach business owners and establish buying intent?
How do you distinguish genuine interest from simple politeness?
What measurable results have you achieved in previous campaigns?
Are you comfortable with a 25% commission-only starting arrangement and the opportunity to transition into full-time employment?
Please include relevant examples of previous campaigns or results.
A final note from Muse Web Studio:
We are not looking for someone who can simply find businesses and send emails. We want someone who can identify opportunities, build genuine business relationships, qualify potential buyers, and consistently bring paying clients to our studio.
If you are confident in your ability to turn prospects into real business opportunities, we'd love to work with you.
