What we are looking for:

A hustler mindset: you have built something yourself — a side business, a reseller network, an online shop, a community, a page with a real following — and you know what it takes to get people to buy.
Comfortable with daily outreach: you can send 50+ DMs a day, follow up relentlessly, and handle rejection without slowing down.
A natural network-builder: you know how to spot people with influence in their circle (micro-creators, community admins, campus ambassadors, resellers) and convince them to join.
Relationship keeper: you stay in touch with the people you recruit, unblock their issues fast, and keep them motivated to sell week after week.
Native of social platforms: you live on WhatsApp, TikTok, Instagram and Facebook, and you understand what makes content convert, not just what gets likes.
Driven by results: you are motivated by targets and by a pay structure tied to performance.
Basic numbers sense: you can track your own pipeline (leads, onboarded, active, orders) in a simple sheet and know where you are against the target.
Nice to have: prior experience in affiliate, referral, direct sales, or influencer outreach; a diploma is welcome but not required.

What your week looks like:

50% of your time is dedicated to “move the pipe”. You have prospects in your pipe, and you want the pipe to move in the right direction.
25% of your time is dedicated to search new relevant prospects that you are adding to the pipe
15% of your time is dedicated to understand the top performers best practices and building knowledge of what a good affiliate looks like
