CAREERS
Work from home. Get paid to book calls.
Seabound Digital is a small company and you work directly with me. I coach you myself, especially on your first bookings. If you're good at this and Seabound grows, there's room to grow with it.

THE PAY
What you earn
R250
per booked call where the owner shows up (up to 15 a month)
R2,000
for your first signed driller, coached by me
R4,000
for every signed driller after that, or R6,500 if you come in with phone sales experience
We agree your rate in the interview. Paid monthly. Close pay lands after the client's deposit does.
Example: 12 calls that show plus two signed drillers is R11,000. That assumes your first close is already done, because a new setter's first close pays R2,000.
R11,000
12 x R250 + 2 x R4,000
Example only, after your first close. Commission only, no basic salary.
This is commission only. There is no basic salary. A month with no calls that show pays nothing.

How much is the commission?
R4,000 per signed client, or R6,500 if you are experienced. Your first one is R2,000 while you are being coached.

A call you booked where the owner actually turns up for the 30 minute call with Ben.
What hours do I work?
15 to 20 hours a week, Monday to Friday, inside 15:00 to 23:00 SA time, because the owners are in the US.
Do I need sales experience?
No. You get the lead list, the script and a US phone line paid by Seabound, and new setters are coached.
What do I need?
A laptop, stable internet, fluent spoken English, and you must be 18 or older. You need a headset or a good mic before you start.
What happens after I apply?
An interview call, then a yes or no. If it is a yes, you sign a contractor agreement and do a paid trial week on normal pay. Either side can end it after that week. Then onboarding.
