The Role

What you'd actually be doing

You'd own the daily operations of our outbound and inbound setting team: coaching reps, refining scripts, and making sure every appointment that lands on an Energy Advisor's calendar is one worth showing up to.

Coach the team

Live call monitoring, call reviews, and daily feedback that actually changes how reps open and close a call.

Own the numbers

Dials, talk time, appointments set, and closed deals, tracked daily and reviewed weekly against milestones.

Guard lead quality

Every booked appointment needs to be a real homeowner in a qualifying area with a workable battery placement.

Hire and ramp

Recruit new setters yourself and get them producing fast, not just onboarded.

Sharpen the script

Refine objection handling and pitch angles so call-to-appointment conversion keeps climbing.

Keep the CRM clean

Maintain pipeline hygiene across the dialer and CRM so lead flow never stalls on bad data.

Requirements

What gets you in the door

Must Haves
  • 2 to 4+ years in sales appointment setting (SDR/BDR), including a year or more managing a team
  • Background in direct-to-consumer sales, residential solar, energy, or high-ticket phone sales
  • A track record of hitting team conversion quotas and weekly milestones, consistently
  • Comfortable working inside CRMs, auto-dialers, and reporting dashboards
Nice to Haves
  • Prior experience in the Texas energy or solar market specifically
  • Experience building objection-handling frameworks from scratch
  • A history of recruiting and ramping new setters in under 30 days
  • Familiarity with call-monitoring or live-coaching software

Let's Be Honest

What this pays on a slower week versus a strong one

Not every week hits a milestone. Some weeks the team is still building rhythm and lands 20 to 30 signed deals instead of 40 or 50. Here's the honest picture of both.

Building Pace
$60K–$72K/yr
20–30 deals a week · below the bonus threshold, base only
Target Pace
$138,000/yr
50 deals a week · $1,500/wk bonus + base
At 20 to 30 deals a week, you don't hit a milestone bonus, so your take-home is your base salary alone, guaranteed either way. Cross 40 deals and you pick up $500 a week. Sustain 50 and the bonus jumps to $1,500 a week, which is where that $138,000 average comes from.

FAQ

Questions candidates usually ask

Is this fully remote?+

Yes, though we prefer someone based near Houston who can occasionally meet the team in person. Remote candidates in Texas are welcome to apply.

How is the weekly bonus actually paid out?+

It's tied to total team closed deals for the week, not your individual output. Hit 40 as a team and everyone in the bonus pool sees $500. Hit 50 and it climbs to $1,500.

What does the team look like right now?+

You'd be stepping into an existing setting team, not building one from zero. Part of the job is recruiting to grow it further as volume increases.

Is there room to grow past this role?+

Yes. As VPP Texas expands into new metro areas, this role is the natural path into a broader sales operations position.
