What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a remote SDR/BDR role where I can run outbound prospect research, phone/email outreach, and CRM hygiene—while using buyer psychology and conversion-focused messaging to qualify opportunities and support sales growth.

I’m a Marketing Management graduate with commercial sales exposure from my internship at Zambia Sugar Plc, where I supported customer outreach by phone and email, accompanied field visits to reseller accounts, and helped maintain sales records in Excel and the company CRM.

Since 2024, I’ve been freelancing as a conversion-focused designer, building landing and pricing concepts that apply what moves B2B buyers—social proof, objection handling, and clear calls to action—using AI-assisted workflows like Claude. I’m now seeking a remote SDR/BDR role where my outbound messaging, buyer psychology, and CRM discipline help turn prospects into qualified conversations.
