Looking for: Sales founder to open first 100 doors. No existing customers. No brand recognition. Uncertain timeline to success. Guaranteed rejection. But with each yes, you'll build our company from the ground up, door by door, relationship by relationship.
We're launching Sparkly, a beverage brand that uses real Vietnamese fruit instead of the artificial ingredients everyone else relies on. The product is excellent. Nobody knows about it yet. That's your challenge.
This isn't about joining a sales team. You ARE the sales team. Starting with Stockholm's most forward-thinking offices, then expanding to retail, you'll create our go-to-market strategy and execute it yourself. No sales support. No marketing budget. Just you, a case of samples, and unwavering determination.
Every morning, you'll wake up to zero sales. By evening, you'll have moved us forward. Some days by inches, some days by miles. But always forward.
Your first customers won't buy because they recognize our brand. They'll buy because they recognize your passion, your persistence, and the quality you represent. You'll be selling more than a beverage; you'll be selling the vision of what Sparkly can become.
The right partner for this venture:
Has experience opening new accounts from scratch, particularly in food and beverage
Understands office managers' and retail buyers' needs before they do
Can build sales systems while simultaneously closing deals
Thinks like an owner: celebrating the wins, but obsessing over losses
This role requires a €10,000 founder investment (structured as a loan, repaid at our first fundraise), ensuring every founder is financially committed to our success.
If you're seeking the comfort of established sales targets and marketing support, look elsewhere. But if you're energized by building something meaningful, by the challenge of getting people to take a chance on something new, by seeing your work literally on shelves and in offices throughout the city... we should talk.
The compensation starts modest. The equity is real. And the satisfaction of turning "no" into "yes" will be yours every single day.
