About Corvane

Corvane is building the next generation of consumer intelligence. We help brands validate ideas, test messaging, recruit verified research participants, and make smarter business decisions using AI-powered market research.

Our customers include consumer brands across beauty, fashion, wellness, food & beverage, consumer technology, and agencies that need fast, reliable consumer insights.

We're looking for someone who thrives on closing deals and wants to earn based on performance—not a salary cap.

About the Role

This isn't an account management role.

This role is for someone who wakes up thinking about pipeline, outreach, meetings, and closing business.

You'll own the full sales cycle—from prospecting to signed contracts—and work directly with the founder to grow Corvane.

If you're the type of salesperson who enjoys hunting for opportunities, opening doors, and getting deals across the finish line, you'll fit right in.

What You'll Sell

You'll be selling:

• Consumer research studies
• AI-powered survey platform subscriptions
• Respondent recruitment
• Brand tracking
• Concept testing
• Pricing research
• Packaging and messaging validation
• Enterprise research packages (when opportunities arise)

Typical deal sizes range from $1,000 to $20,000+, with opportunities for recurring subscription revenue.

Responsibilities

• Generate your own qualified leads through outbound prospecting.
• Cold call, email, and message decision-makers on LinkedIn.
• Book and run product demos.
• Manage opportunities from first contact through close.
• Build relationships with founders, CMOs, marketers, and agencies.
• Negotiate and close new business.
• Consistently exceed monthly sales targets.
• Maintain an accurate CRM pipeline.
• Share market feedback to improve messaging and product positioning.

Ideal Customers

You'll primarily sell to:

• Shopify brands
• DTC brands
• Beauty companies
• Wellness brands
• Fashion brands
• Food & beverage companies
• Consumer technology startups
• Branding and marketing agencies

You Should Have

• Proven experience in B2B sales, business development, or Account Executive roles.
• Confidence with cold outreach.
• Strong objection-handling skills.
• Excellent communication and negotiation abilities.
• Self-motivation and the ability to work independently.
• A hunter mentality with a track record of generating your own pipeline.
• Experience selling SaaS, marketing services, market research, or advertising solutions is a plus.

Compensation

This is a commission-only role.

You earn a percentage of every deal you close.

Commission Structure

• 15% commission on the first payment from every new customer.
• 10% commission on subscription revenue for the first 12 months, as long as the customer remains active.
• Performance bonuses available for exceeding quarterly targets.

Earnings Examples

Example 1

Close a $6,100 research study

• Commission earned: $915

Example 2

Close five research studies worth $6,100 each in one month

• Total sales: $30,500
• Commission earned: $4,575

Example 3

Close a customer on a $750/month subscription

• Earn $75/month for up to 12 months while they remain an active customer.
• This is in addition to any commission earned from research studies.

There is no cap on commissions.

Success Looks Like

Within your first 90 days, you will:

• Build a qualified outbound pipeline.
• Book consistent weekly sales meetings.
• Close your first customers.
• Develop repeatable outreach strategies.
• Help establish Corvane's sales engine.

Who Should Apply?

This role is for someone who is competitive, persistent, and relentless about closing deals.

If you're motivated by uncapped commissions, enjoy creating opportunities from scratch, and want to help build an early-stage company, we'd love to hear from you.
