Utkarsh Jha

I'm a business development professional based in Nepal with experience in B2B outbound sales, lead generation, prospect research, appointment setting, and go-to-market activities.

My professional experience has focused on helping businesses identify potential customers, reach relevant decision-makers, generate qualified conversations, and build sales pipelines.

In one four-month outbound campaign, I contacted 1,056 targeted prospects, generated 150 replies, and booked 30 meetings. In another email outreach campaign involving 400 prospects, I generated 10 meetings. These experiences helped me develop a structured approach to prospect targeting, personalized outreach, follow-ups, and appointment setting.

More recently, I worked as a Business Development Associate at Startup Teams, where I supported go-to-market initiatives for AgentifyMe, an AI product designed to help real estate brokerages automate repetitive tasks. My responsibilities included market research, ICP development, identifying decision-makers, sourcing leads, conducting outreach, analyzing prospect feedback, and demonstrating AI solutions to communicate their business value.

I'm experienced with tools including Apollo.io, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, GoHighLevel CRM, Google Sheets, Microsoft Excel, and other sales and communication tools. I've also gained hands-on experience with outbound calling, maintaining contact records, documenting conversations, and organizing follow-ups.

I'm particularly interested in B2B SaaS, AI and automation, technology services, digital marketing agencies, and businesses looking to grow their sales pipeline.

I enjoy the combination of research, communication, problem-solving, and relationship-building involved in business development. I believe effective outbound sales starts with understanding the customer's needs and approaching the right prospects with a relevant message rather than simply maximizing outreach volume.

I'm currently seeking international remote opportunities as a Sales Development Representative (SDR), Business Development Representative (BDR), Appointment Setter, Lead Generation Specialist, or Business Development Associate.

I'm open to full-time remote employment and independent contractor opportunities, including roles that require coordination with US business hours. My long-term goal is to grow into a well-rounded sales professional who can contribute to revenue generation, develop meaningful client relationships, and take on greater responsibility throughout the sales process.
