321 AIM is a proprietary performance marketing platform built for businesses that need leads — not impressions. Powered by a pay-per-qualified-lead model, AIM connects clients in high-value verticals including home services, legal services, healthcare, insurance, and financial services with the ready-to-convert prospects that move the needle on revenue. AIM operates as a distinct business unit within the 321 ecosystem, combining digital performance marketing expertise with built-in lead qualification infrastructure and transparent, outcome-based pricing. We don't sell campaigns — we sell results. And we're growing fast. Unlike traditional lead generation companies, AIM supports clients beyond lead delivery — helping ensure leads are contacted, qualified, and converted into real opportunities. This gives our clients a measurable advantage in speed-to-lead and conversion performance. WHAT YOU'LL DO
Sales & New Client Acquisition
Develop and execute a business development strategy focused on driving new client partnerships for 321 AIM in target verticals: home services, legal services, healthcare, insurance, and financial services
Identify and pursue high-value prospects — including regional and national operators, franchise groups, law firms, and healthcare practices — that have strong lead volume needs and are a fit for a performance-based pricing model
Lead end-to-end sales cycles from prospecting and discovery through proposal, negotiation, and contract close
Conduct discovery conversations that uncover client lead volume goals, cost-per-lead targets, current marketing performance, and qualification criteria — and translate those into a compelling AIM partnership proposal
Clearly articulate AIM's value proposition, pricing model, lead qualification standards, and performance expectations to prospects, including C-suite and senior marketing decision-makers
Develop customized proposals that outline projected lead volume, qualified-lead definitions, pricing structure, and expected ROI
Maintain a disciplined sales pipeline and CRM to track prospect status, activity, and revenue projections
Educate prospects on the full lead lifecycle — from lead generation to contact, qualification, and appointment conversion — and position AIM as a partner across that entire funnel
Identify opportunities to scale lead volume, expand into additional service areas, or deepen AIM’s role in the client’s acquisition funnel
Market Development & Brand Presence
Build AIM's market presence within target verticals through strategic outreach, industry networking, conference participation, and partnership development
Identify and cultivate referral relationships with complementary vendors, franchise consultants, industry associations, and channel partners who serve AIM's target client base
Monitor competitor offerings, pricing models, and market positioning to ensure AIM's value proposition stays sharp and differentiated
Collaborate with AIM leadership to develop sales collateral, case studies, and pitch materials that demonstrate AIM's performance track record and vertical expertise
Represent AIM at industry events, trade shows, and vertical-specific conferences relevant to home services, legal, healthcare, insurance, and financial services
Diagnose breakdowns in the prospect’s current funnel (e.g., slow response times, poor follow-up, low booking rates) and position AIM as a solution not just for lead volume, but for conversion performance
Client Onboarding & Handoff
Serve as the primary point of contact through the pre-onboarding phase, ensuring new clients have a clear understanding of the AIM model, reporting expectations, and lead qualification process
Collaborate with AIM's operations and campaign management teams to ensure smooth client onboarding and alignment on qualified-lead definitions, delivery timelines, and performance benchmarks
Maintain strong communication during early campaign launch to support client confidence and address questions before transitioning to the ongoing account relationship
Identify expansion and upsell opportunities within the existing AIM client base as lead programs scale
Ensure alignment between what was sold and how leads will be handled — including intake process, response expectations, and appointment-setting workflows

3+ years of experience in business development, sales, or client acquisition — with direct experience selling performance marketing, lead generation, or pay-per-lead programs strongly preferred
