About the Internship
Owlera is an early-stage startup, and we're looking for an energetic Sales Intern to help us turn interest into revenue. You'll work directly with the founding team on real selling — prospecting, pitching, handling objections, and closing early customers. This is a hands-on, remote, 6-week unpaid internship for someone who wants to learn how startups actually sell, not just study sales theory.
Responsibilities
• Research and prioritize high-potential prospects and target accounts
• Run outbound prospecting via email, LinkedIn, and other channels
• Craft compelling outreach messages tailored to each prospect's needs
• Conduct discovery conversations to understand customer pain points
• Deliver product pitches and live demos (with coaching from the founding team)
• Handle common objections confidently and professionally
• Follow up persistently with prospects through multi-touch sequences
• Qualify leads and move them through the sales pipeline
• Update the CRM / pipeline tracker with accurate activity and deal data
• Help prepare proposals, quotes, and sales collateral
• Track personal sales metrics (calls, replies, meetings, conversions) weekly
• Shadow founder-led sales calls and debrief afterward
• Test and iterate on pitch angles, scripts, and value propositions
• Collect prospect feedback and relay product insights to the team
• Support upsell and expansion conversations with early users
• Help draft case studies and win stories from closed deals
• Document winning plays in a simple sales playbook
Requirements
• Strong verbal and written communication skills in English
• Confident, personable, and comfortable talking to strangers
• Resilient — handles rejection well and keeps going
• Highly organized; able to juggle many conversations and follow-ups
• Self-motivated and able to work independently in a remote setting
• Genuinely excited about sales and persuasion as a craft
• Quick learner — absorbs product knowledge and feedback fast
• Analytical mindset — comfortable tracking numbers and spotting patterns
• Available 10–15 hours per week for 6 weeks
• Bonus: any experience in sales, retail, fundraising, debate, or customer-facing roles
What You'll Gain
• Real, hands-on experience selling for an early-stage startup
• Direct mentorship and call coaching from the founding team
• A first-hand look at how startups close their first customers
• Practical prospecting and pipeline-management skills
• Pitching and objection-handling skills that transfer anywhere
• CRM and sales-tool proficiency
• Discovery and needs-analysis conversation skills
• Experience running demos and closing conversations
• A track record of real outreach numbers and meetings booked
• Certificate of completion at the end of the internship
• Letter of recommendation for strong performers
• LinkedIn recommendation for strong performers
• Networking with startup founders and operators
• Potential path to a paid role or extended engagement
• A flexible remote schedule that fits around your studies
