The job

What you'd do

Find and sign up new restaurant owners and small businesses in your assigned area around Cicero, IL, visiting them in person to sell SpotOn's cash register system and card payment processing.

What you'd sell

Helps independent restaurants take orders and payments in one place

When a restaurant has to take orders, ring up tables, and collect payment, there are a lot of moving parts to keep track of. The problem is, every slow or messy checkout costs money and frustrates the people waiting to pay. SpotOn makes point-of-sale systems and payment processing for independent restaurants, so orders, payments, and profit tools all work from one system.

Where deals come from

Mostly you. Expect a lot of outbound: cold calls, emails and LinkedIn.

The Braun Read

Worth a look

Solid on the basics. Use the first call to fill in the gaps.

Pay: Base and OTE both listed. Roughly a 50/50 base-to-variable split.
Transparency: Shares 1 of 5. Mentions territory. Ask about quota, attainment, deal size and sales cycle.
Time on market: Brand new.
Company hiring: Ramping up: posted 66 sales roles in the last 30 days. That many open roles can also mean churn. Ask how many reps are still there from last year.

Red lights

None spotted.

Yellow lights

Pay range too wide to trust. The top of the range is more than double the bottom. Ask where in that range this offer would really land.
Same job posted many times. The company has 8 or more open postings with this exact title. Could be a big build-out, could be a revolving door. Ask how many reps they hired last year and how many are still there.

Questions to ask on the first call

Built from what this posting leaves out. How they answer tells you as much as what they say.

1.
Where in the range would someone with my background land, and why?
A wide range means the top number may not be your number.
2.
How many reps are you hiring for this, and how many from last year's class are still here?
Hiring a lot can mean growth, or people leaving.
3.
What percentage of fully ramped reps hit quota last year?
OTE is what you could earn. This is how likely you are to earn it.
4.
What percentage of reps on the team have been here more than 18 months?
Tenure shows whether people stay long enough to get paid.

Why I built it this way ↓

Most résumé tools try to make you look like a match. I'd rather help you find out if you are one.

Nothing made up.
Nothing goes on your résumé that you didn't do. If a line would need a number you didn't give me, I ask. I don't guess. On Braun Board it's checked in code, not just promised.
Curiosity before conclusions.
If the job wants something your résumé doesn't show, I ask before I assume. Plenty of sellers have done the thing and just never wrote it down.
Sorting, not selling.
Some jobs won't line up with what you've done. Finding that out before you apply isn't a loss. It's an hour back, spent on a job that fits.
No score.
A match score tells you how well you copied their words. It doesn't tell you whether you'd be good at the job, or happy there.

It's the same way I teach selling. We don't control who says yes. We do control where we spend our time, and whether everything we say is true.
