About the Role:

Must be based in Canada

As a Business Development Representative BDR at Octav, you’ll be at the forefront of our sales process, embodying the drive and resilience necessary to introduce our groundbreaking platform to potential clients (DeFi & Web3 projects, protocols, DAOs). Your role is pivotal in building the foundation of our sales cycle, focusing on prospecting, initiating contact, and nurturing leads through various channels. If you thrive in a dynamic environment and are unphased by the challenges of reaching out, getting rejected, and persistently following up, this position is your gateway to making a substantial impact within the DeFi space.

Key Responsibilities:

  • Prospecting Mastery:
    • Expertise in identifying and engaging our Ideal Customer Profile (DeFi protocols, DAOs, Web3 hedge funds) through extensive research and outreach, including emails, LinkedIn requests, Discord messages, Telegram DMs and more.
  • Communication and Follow-Up:
    • Sending messages, managing follow-ups, and utilizing creative communication strategies to engage potential clients.
  • Relationship Building:
    • Crafting new and clever ways to build relationships with potential clients, setting the stage for our Director of Sales to close deals.
  • Trial Account Creation and Incentivization:
    • Generating trial accounts and devising other incentives to encourage potential clients to explore Octav’s offerings.
  • Feedback Loop:
    • Collaborating closely with the sales and marketing teams to refine outreach strategies based on market feedback and performance metrics.

Requirements:

  • Must be based in Canada, ideally in the province of Quebec. We will ignore applications outside of Canada.
  • Proven experience (2 years) in a Sales/BD role with a strong background in building up a pipeline of warm leads.
  • Expertise in DeFi: Deep understanding of DeFi nuances such as DAO infrastructure and treasuries with experience in voting as part of a DAO.
  • Experience with CRM: Creating leads, taking notes, recording meetings, tracking and owning a CRM such as Pipedrive.
  • Resilience in Outreach: Comfortable with high-volume outreach and the inevitability of rejection, viewing each no as a step closer to yes.
  • Innovative Thinker: Ability to think outside the box and develop creative strategies for engaging with potential clients.
  • Strong Communication Skills: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to tailor messaging according to the audience.
  • Passionate about Web3: A keen understanding of Web3 and DeFi landscapes and a desire to shape its future.
  • Startup Mindset: Thrilled by the challenges and opportunities of a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
