Sales Development Representative

About AirGarage 🏙

AirGarage is repurposing the 30% of real estate in the average American city currently dedicated to parking.

We are building a future where real estate is digitized and can be transitioned from one use to another seamlessly on-demand, moving every piece of urban real estate toward its highest and best use.

We are starting with the $131 billion US parking real estate market because it is one of the most offline and mismanaged commercial real estate asset types.

As a full-stack parking operator, we automate the operation of parking lots and parking garages. We handle everything from advertising to collecting payments from drivers and enforcing against illegal parking. We already operate 250+ parking lots and parking garages across 35 US states and we are growing quickly.

We are backed by top tier investors including Andreessen Horowitz, Floodgate, Founders Fund, and angel investors who have founded or worked at companies like Uber, Opendoor, Flexport, and more.

WHY THIS JOB MAY NOT BE FOR YOU 🚨

If you don’t like waking up every day and facing rejection head on, this role is not for you.

If you aren’t working to make yourself at least a little bit better every day, this role is not for you.

If you don’t like doing research to understand customers and their pain points so that you can tailor a pitch to their actual needs, this role is not a fit for you.

As a Sales Development Representative at AirGarage, you are the lifeblood of the company’s growth. 

The company’s growth is riding on your ability to take a creative, consultative approach with our potential customers - whether these are mom and pop parking lot owners or large parking asset owners. 

Your role is to get prospects excited about our mission and the differentiated value we bring to the table for their assets and get them interested in speaking with our expert parking team.  

To succeed here you need to be comfortable with:

• Cold calling every day, day in and day out

• Heavy account + persona research to understand the people you’re pitching

• Personalized + tailored email outreach to succinctly and creatively convey our value proposition

• Pushing yourself to be better every day than you were the day before
