We're Hiring an SDR / Appointment Setter at GrowthFlare
When a lead raises their hand on a client's campaign, it becomes yours. You own it from the first reply until it's booked, working email, phone, text, and voicemail to turn interest into meetings on the calendar.
Benefits
Why partner with us at GrowthFlare?
Base + Bonus
Comp is split 50/50 between a flat base and tiered performance bonuses. Every threshold you hit unlocks more. If you book, you earn.
Real Ownership
The lead is yours from the first interested reply until it's booked. You own the outcome, not just a task.
Front-Row Seat
A fantastic first role in the agency world. Work shoulder to shoulder with a team of 5 to 6 and see exactly how a fast-growing agency runs.
Mission-Driven Team
Small, tight-knit team of operators who care deeply about the work and each other. You're building something different, not just collecting a paycheck.
Skills That Compound
Learn outbound, sales, and the online business space firsthand. The skills you build here pay off for the rest of your career.
We built GrowthFlare around one idea: a small, sharp team running world-class outbound should outperform a 50-person agency every time. That holds up. But it only works if every person on the team owns their piece completely.
This SDR role is the connective tissue between our campaigns and our clients' revenue. You turn raised hands into booked meetings. That's a real job with a real impact on real businesses.
If you want genuine ownership, a tight team, and a clear line between your effort and the outcome, I want to talk to you.

Day in the life
What a typical day actually looks like:
01
Morning
Clear the overnight inbox
Replies came in while you were offline. First thing every morning, you work through every interested lead from the night before and get responses out fast. The clock starts the moment a reply lands.
02
All day
Five minutes from reply to response
When a live reply comes in, you have five minutes. Email goes out first. Then you are on the dialler. If they do not pick up, a voicemail and text go out in the same minute. Speed to lead is the whole game.
03
Between replies
Work the pipeline
When the inbox is quiet, you are not. Leads from yesterday and the day before get follow-ups. You push them into nurture sub-sequences, stay top of mind, and chip away at everything in the pipeline until it books or closes.
04
Ongoing
Find the angle
You learn each client's offer well enough to add real value on every message. When something is not working, you try something different. You are always looking for a more compelling reason for the prospect to show up.
05
End of day
EOD form
You fill in the day's numbers, compare them against yesterday, note the objections you heard most, and pick one thing to do differently tomorrow. Every day is a data point.
The role
Here's what you'll own every day:
Responsibilities
Respond to interested replies fast
Speed-to-lead is everything. The faster you touch a hand-raise, the more meetings you book.
Warm-call leads as they come in
Pick up the phone while the interest is hot. Don't wait for it to cool off.
Follow up across every channel
Email, phone, text, and voicemail until the lead books or hard-passes. Nothing goes cold.
Push leads through the CRM
Move every lead from interested to booked. Every lead tracked, nothing falls through the cracks.
Learn each client's offer cold
Across finance, marketing, SaaS, and more, well enough to reinforce its value on the fly.
Adapt your messaging in real time
Read what each lead actually says and respond like a human, not a script. Always reinforce why the call is worth it.
Requirements
Based in North America, 9am to 5pm EST
You're available during Eastern business hours and ready to work the inbox and phones live.
Hungry above all else
Your default question every morning is how many calls can I book today. Drive matters more than your resume.
Comfortable on the phone
Warm calling energizes you. You'll be on email, phone, and text all day.
Relentless on follow-up
You don't let leads go cold. You text, call, email, and leave voicemails until you get a yes or a no.
Resourceful
When something isn't working, you figure it the fuck out. Coachable, organized, and you never drop a lead.
Bonus: SDR or outreach-tool experience
Appointment-setting experience or familiarity with tools like EmailBison, Smartlead, Attio, or Claude. Not required, just a plus.
FAQ
Common questions, straight answers:
Is this a full-time role?
Yes. Full-time, 40 hours per week, 9am to 5pm EST, Monday through Friday.
What does the interview process look like?
Application, then a short intro call with Aaron, then a trial task so we can both see how you work, then an offer if it is a fit. We move fast.
When would I start?
As soon as possible. We are not running a slow hiring process. Once we find the right person, we move.
Do I need sales or SDR experience?
No. Drive and coachability matter more than your resume. If you are hungry and you can follow a process, we will teach you the rest.
What tools will I use?
Our own internal CRM, EmailBison for campaign management, a dedicated dialler for warm calling, and Slack for team communication. We keep the stack tight and purposeful.
