Business Development (Sales) - Internship
This is a remote business development (sales) internship with Alphanumeric Ideas, with 5 openings, built around email marketing and finding new clients. The stipend ranges from ₹1,501 to ₹56,000 a month, which is well above typical for similar remote internships.
Email campaigns, lead research and sales support
The core of the work is email marketing: you would plan and run campaigns meant to bring in leads and turn them into sales. Alongside that, you would research the market and pick out potential clients to reach out to.
You would also help put together sales presentations and pitch material, and keep in touch with clients and internal teams so projects run smoothly. Part of the job is reading sales performance numbers to see what needs improving, and working with the sales team on ways to win new business. The post also expects you to follow industry trends and good practice.
One detail to note: the post says you would be hired by and work for a sister concern, Alphanumeric Retail Pvt Ltd, which deals in comic books for kids. It also describes the work as closer to networking than cold calling, covering lead generation and client communication, and says you should be comfortable speaking with people on a call or GMeet when needed.
