Sales Virtual Assistant

Sales Virtual Assistant

Role Overview

This is a sales-focused Virtual Assistant role supporting outbound calling and closing

for an AI-powered service that helps plumbers and trade businesses capture more leads

and book more jobs automatically.

This is not a passive admin role. The VA will be expected to confidently hold real

conversations, handle objections, and guide prospects toward saying yes (or booking a

demo call).

 

What we sell (quick overview):

We help plumbing businesses (and similar trades) never miss a lead again. Using AI voice

agents and automation, we handle inbound calls, qualify leads, and book jobs — even

after hours. Think of it as hiring a 24/7 receptionist that never calls in sick.

 

Core responsibilities:

  1. Outbound cold calls — calling plumbers from a lead list and qualifying interest
  2. Follow-ups — nurturing warm leads who’ve shown interest but haven’t committed
  3. Closing — walking prospects through the offer, handling objections, and getting

them to say yes (or booking a demo call)

Training and resources provided:

  • Call script and objection-handling framework
  • Loom videos walking through how calls should sound

 

What I’m Looking For

  • Strong English communication — clear, confident, and easy to understand on the

phone

  • Sales experience (doesn’t have to be in tech — trades, insurance, real estate, etc.

are all fine)

  • Comfortable with rejection and knowing when to push vs. when to move on
  • Reliable internet and a quiet calling environment
  • Bonus: familiarity with CRMs (Go High Level preferred), AI tools, or calling

software like JustCall or Aircall

 

Video Application

To save time on both sides, please send a 1–2 minute video answering the questions

below. This helps assess communication skills and fit before moving forward.

Question 1 — Why are you interested in this position?

Tell me why sales appeals to you and why you want to work in a role focused on outbound

calls and closing.

Question 2 — What do you know about our company and what we sell?

Do a little research and tell me what you understand about AI tools for trade businesses

— and why you think a plumber would or wouldn’t care about this.

Question 3 — Describe your sales background.

What have you sold before? Walk me through a deal or call you’re proud of — what

happened, how you handled it, and what the outcome was.

Question 4 — How do you handle objections or rejection on a call?

Give me a real example. What did the prospect say, how did you respond, and what did

you learn from it?

Question 5 — What is your ideal work environment and how do you stay motivated

doing repetitive outbound work?

Closing deals requires dialing a lot of numbers. Tell me how you keep your energy and

focus up across a long calling session.

Question 6 — How do you currently use AI tools in your work?

Please give a specific example of a task you have used AI for, and describe how it

improved your output or efficiency.

Note: There is no wrong answer. We use AI actively in this role and want to understand

your comfort level and approach.

After reviewing your video answers, we’ll jump on a quick chat to discuss rates, hours,

and next steps.
