Tongal’s mission is to bring the world’s creative work to the world’s creative talent. We’re looking for people who are also passionate about this mission to join us as we tell the world about Tongal and show companies why they should post project briefs on Tongal. To that end, Tongal is looking to identify a crew of 10-20 community members based anywhere in the world who will set up meetings with potential clients to help sell Tongal projects. Think of it as Glengarry Glen Tongalers.
We’re looking for ambassadors who can connect us to brands, companies, networks, studios and streaming platforms that want to tap into the creative talent within the Tongal community.
We’re looking for people who can use their previous sales experience to:
- set up meetings and sell Tongal projects by articulating our value proposition and mission;
- identify the marketing needs of prospective clients and recommend Tongal as a solution;
- access a deep Rolodex of connections at companies that should be working with Tongal;
- develop relationships with potential clients and proactively gather information on their needs to share with the internal Tongal sales team; and
- be a great representative of the Tongal brand.
Tongal will provide business development ambassadors with:
- remote onboarding to provide necessary skills and training specific to Tongal;
- all necessary Tongal marketing materials;
- the ability to work on your own time and schedule, remotely (no travel required);
- compensation for referrals that lead to meetings and sales (see the Payment & Project Requirements section for more details).
