Growth Specialist

Independent Growth Specialist Commission-Based | Remote | B2B Sales, Marketing & Client Growth Company: ZAM. Location: Remote Engagement: Independent Contractor / Commission-Based Compensation: 100% performance-based commission with uncapped earning potential Company Description ZAM is an embedded business partner for owner-operated companies, focusing on rebuilding operations from the inside rather than acting as a traditional agency or software vendor. ZAM helps businesses improve the way they operate through custom systems, workflow automation, AI-enabled processes, integrations, and digital operations solutions. Instead of forcing businesses to rely on disconnected tools and repetitive manual processes, we help design and implement systems that improve efficiency, visibility, scalability, and operational control. As we expand into international markets, we are looking for entrepreneurial, results-oriented professionals who can help us identify, develop, and manage new client opportunities in Canada. The team works with owner-operated businesses worldwide, including across the US, Canada, Australia, and Europe. The Opportunity We are looking for an Independent Growth Specialist who can help grow ZAM's presence in the global market. This is not a traditional salaried position. This is a commission-based opportunity for someone who wants their earning potential directly connected to the business they generate. You will work across three interconnected areas: Sales & Business Development Identify prospects, start conversations, qualify opportunities, participate in discovery meetings, coordinate proposals, follow up with decision-makers, and help convert prospects into paying ZAM clients. Marketing & Market Development Research industries and target accounts, identify pain points and opportunities, support outreach campaigns, develop market-specific messaging, and help strengthen ZAM's visibility within your territory or professional network. Client & Project Coordination For accounts you help develop, you may remain involved after closing by coordinating onboarding, gathering requirements, organizing meetings, tracking deliverables, maintaining client communication, and helping projects move successfully from sale to delivery. You are not expected to personally build or code the technical solution. ZAM's technical and delivery resources support solution design and implementation. Your responsibility is to help create, develop, and manage the business relationship. Key Responsibilities Research and identify qualified global businesses that may benefit from ZAM's services. Identify owners, founders, executives, operations leaders, and other relevant decision-makers. Conduct personalized outreach through LinkedIn, email, networking, referrals, cold-calling, social media and other channels. Develop relationships with potential clients rather than relying on mass outreach. Qualify opportunities and identify operational problems ZAM may be able to solve. Schedule and participate in discovery or presentation meetings. Maintain consistent follow-up with interested prospects. Coordinate proposals, presentations, requirements, and next steps. Help move opportunities through the sales pipeline. Maintain accurate records of prospects, conversations, opportunities, and client activity. Assist with market research and campaign ideas for the Global market. Support client onboarding after a successful sale. Coordinate communication between clients and ZAM's delivery team when assigned. Track project requirements, commitments, risks, and follow-ups. Identify opportunities for additional services, repeat projects, or referrals. Provide regular visibility into pipeline activity and progress. Who We're Looking For You may be a strong fit if you: Have experience in B2B sales, business development, account management, marketing, consulting, or client-facing roles. Are confident contacting business owners and decision-makers. Can communicate professionally through email, LinkedIn, video calls, and presentations. Know how to research a company before approaching it. Understand that good B2B sales is based on identifying problems and creating value—not sending generic sales pitches. Are comfortable handling objections and following up consistently. Can organize multiple opportunities without constant supervision. Are comfortable learning technical services even if you are not a developer. Are proactive, resourceful, accountable, and commercially minded. Can communicate effectively with both clients and technical teams. Want an opportunity where earnings are connected to results. Highly growth driven candidates Experience selling technology, automation, software, consulting, professional services, or digital-transformation solutions is an advantage, but not mandatory. Compensation This opportunity is 100% commission-based. There is no fixed salary or guaranteed hourly wage under the intended independent-contractor arrangement. Compensation is tied to qualifying business that you originate and help convert. Closed Business Commission 3% of qualifying client revenue actually collected by ZAM from eligible contractor-sourced opportunities, subject to the written commission agreement. Examples in CAD: CAD $5,000 collected → CAD $150 commission CAD $10,000 collected → CAD $300 commission CAD $25,000 collected → CAD $750 commission CAD $50,000 collected → CAD $1,500 commission CAD $100,000 collected → CAD $3,000 commission There is no predetermined earnings ceiling under the commission model. Final commission eligibility, attribution, payment timing, refunds, shared opportunities, and related rules will be defined in the independent-contractor and commission agreement. What ZAM Provides You will not be expected to create the entire sales infrastructure yourself. ZAM provides: Service and solution training Sales positioning and messaging Target-client guidance Proposal and presentation support Discovery-call support Technical consultation Project scoping support Marketing materials and company information Sales-process guidance Project-delivery resources Ongoing collaboration with ZAM leadership Team Portal For larger or technically complex opportunities, ZAM leadership and technical resources can participate in discovery, solution design, pricing, and closing. How Success Will Be Measured Because this is a performance-based opportunity, success is primarily measured through: Quality of prospects generated Qualified opportunities created Discovery meetings generated Sales pipeline developed Quality and consistency of follow-up Client relationships developed Revenue successfully closed and collected Accuracy of opportunity documentation Professionalism in representing ZAM Client retention, referrals, and expansion opportunities We value quality over mass outreach. Ten highly relevant conversations are more valuable than hundreds of generic messages. Working Style This opportunity is designed for an independent professional. You should be comfortable: Managing your own schedule and workflow Organizing your own prospecting activity Working remotely Setting your own approach to business development within ZAM's brand and compliance guidelines Communicating progress and opportunities clearly Working independently while collaborating with ZAM when support is needed This opportunity may be especially suitable for: Independent sales professionals Business development consultants Account executives seeking additional opportunities Marketing or growth consultants Freelancers with strong professional networks Former founders or operators Professionals already serving Global SMEs Individuals interested in technology and business automation Important Engagement Disclosure This posting is intended for an independent-contractor, commission-based business-development engagement, not a salaried employee position. The final engagement structure will be documented in writing and must comply with applicable Canadian and provincial requirements. Contractor status depends on the actual working relationship and not simply the title used in an agreement. Applicants should be legally able to perform independent contract services in Canada and be responsible for understanding their own tax, registration, and other obligations applicable to independent work. AI Disclosure ZAM may use digital or AI-enabled tools to assist with administrative organization or applicant review. Final selection decisions will involve human review. Why Join ZAM? If you're looking for a traditional role where your income is predetermined regardless of the business you generate, this opportunity may not be the right fit. If you enjoy opening doors, developing relationships, understanding business problems, and helping companies adopt better systems, this gives you the opportunity to participate directly in the value you create. We're looking for people who want to help build ZAM's presence Global—not simply fill a seat.
