What You'll Do
- Work directly with the founder to design and run a data-driven outreach engine for brand partnerships.
- Identify and qualify targets using Amazon research tools and external sources; build concise brand profiles and opportunity scores.
- Map decision-makers and enrich accurate contact details.
- Support execution of founder-led outreach (emails, LinkedIn, calls): craft value propositions, personalize messages, follow up systematically, and secure meetings.
- Own the funnel and CRM hygiene; keep a disciplined tracker from research to contact to meeting to recap.
- Prepare sharp pitch materials (opportunity decks, call briefs, follow-ups) that convert research into compelling conversations.
- Run A/B tests on angles, cadences, and subject lines; analyze open, reply, and positive rates and iterate weekly.
- Report insights: track patterns in responses, objections, and category behavior; share concise weekly learnings.
- Help document SOPs (research → qualification → outreach → follow-up) to scale a repeatable brand-acquisition playbook.
What We're Looking For
- Recent Bachelor's or Master's graduate in Business, Marketing, or related fields, or an early career professional.
- Hungry and analytical; you love turning research into targeted outreach that gets replies.
- Clear, persuasive, and confident writer and communicator with excellent English.
- Strong logic, structure, and attention to detail; comfortable with Powerpoint or Google Slides.
- Organized and dependable; disciplined with CRM, follow-ups, and pipeline hygiene.
- Fast executor and learner who enjoys testing angles, tracking results, and iterating weekly.
- Self-starter who thrives in a fast, hands-on startup environment.
- Based in Europe and available for a 6-month full-time internship.
Nice to Have
- German language skills are a big plus.
- Strong interest in consumer brands, Amazon, and B2B sales is highly desirable.
