New Business Consultant

Customer Acquisition Specialist

We’re looking for closers, relationship builders, and opportunity creators.

If you know how to open doors, win trust, and close recurring business, Ello Technology wants to meet you.

Why This Role Exists

This role exists to help Ello Technology grow by creating new opportunities, building strong business relationships, and converting those opportunities into long-term monthly recurring revenue.

You will do this through proactive outreach, smart networking, meaningful conversations, and confident closing.

This is a role for someone who enjoys creating momentum, opening doors, and turning trust into commercial results. Your success will be measured by the recurring revenue you close and the quality of pipeline you build.

What Success Looks Like

By Day 90, you should have built a strong foundation for consistent performance in the role.

That means:

You have established a repeatable outbound rhythm with daily prospecting, weekly meetings, and disciplined follow-up

You are building a healthy pipeline and beginning to close deals consistently each month

You have enough qualified opportunities in play to support the quarterly target of R150,000 in new monthly recurring revenue

Your Zoho CRM is clean, current, and reliable enough to support accurate weekly forecasting

We are looking for someone who can build consistency early, not someone who waits for momentum to appear on its own.

How Performance Is Measured

This role has a clear commercial target:

Annual target: R600,000 in new monthly recurring revenue

Quarterly target: R150,000 in new monthly recurring revenue

Monthly guide target: R50,000 in new monthly recurring revenue

Cold calls: 250–400 per week

Decision-maker conversations: 25–40 per week

Discovery meetings booked: 8–12 per week

Discovery meetings completed: 6–10 per week

Proposals sent: 3–6 per week

New recurring revenue closed: Average target of R12,500 per week

These numbers are there to create clarity, consistency, and momentum. As real conversion data becomes available, activity expectations may be refined.

1) Daily Prospecting and Pipeline Creation

You will be expected to create new business opportunities every day through consistent outbound activity.

This includes:

Cold calling into ideal prospect lists during structured call blocks

Daily LinkedIn outreach using thoughtful connection and message strategies

Daily email outreach that is clear, relevant, and designed to start conversations

2) Networking and Relationship Building

This role is not only about direct outreach. It also includes building a strong referral and partnership engine.

This includes:

Participating in industry events and business networks on a regular basis

Creating referral introductions through partners, clients, and strategic relationships

Maintaining a live partner and referral pipeline in Zoho CRM

3) Discovery, Qualification, and Closing

You will lead quality sales conversations with confidence and structure.

This includes:

Running discovery calls that uncover pain points, impact, urgency, decision-making process, and budget reality

Qualifying opportunities properly so time is spent on the right prospects

Presenting solutions clearly and guiding the next step with confidence

Handling objections professionally, using logic, proof, and value rather than discounting

4) CRM Discipline and Pipeline Accuracy

A strong salesperson is also operationally sharp.

This includes:

Logging all calls, meetings, notes, and next actions on the same day

Keeping Zoho CRM stages accurate and up to date

Taking part in weekly pipeline reviews with the Sales BU Lead to review progress, blockers, and next steps

5) Follow-Up and Deal Progression

This is a role for someone who understands that many deals are won in the follow-up.

This includes:

Executing a disciplined multi-touch follow-up process after every meeting and proposal

Maintaining professional momentum with prospects

Creating urgency in an ethical and commercially smart way through deadlines, limited capacity, and implementation availability
