About Phoenix Branding

Phoenix Branding is a growing Bengaluru-based branding, marketing and content agency helping businesses build their brand and grow their digital presence.

We work across Branding, Brand Strategy, Website Development, Social Media, Content Creation, Video Production, Digital Marketing, SEO, Performance Marketing, Advertising, Photography & Videography.

About the Role

We are looking for a target-driven Business Development Executive who can hunt, consult and close.

You will be responsible for the complete B2B sales cycle — prospecting → lead generation → qualification → client meetings → pitching → proposals → negotiation → follow-up → deal closure.

This is a revenue-focused role for someone who takes ownership of building their own pipeline rather than waiting for leads.

Key Responsibilities

Generate new business through cold calling, LinkedIn outreach, email, referrals, networking and market research.
Identify and qualify potential clients across startups, SMEs, local businesses and established companies.
Connect with founders, business owners, marketing heads and decision-makers.
Understand client business challenges and recommend relevant branding, marketing and digital solutions.
Conduct 3–4 client meetings per week, including field meetings across Bengaluru.
Prepare and present proposals, handle objections and negotiate commercials.
Maintain consistent follow-ups and drive opportunities towards closure.
Manage leads, opportunities and sales pipeline through CRM.
Build relationships through networking events, startup communities, business associations, partnerships and referrals.
Achieve assigned sales and revenue targets.
Coordinate with internal teams for smooth client handover after closure.

What We're Looking For

2–4 years of experience in B2B Sales / Business Development / Client Acquisition.
Bachelor's degree required.
Experience in Advertising, Digital Marketing, Branding, Media, Real Estate or B2B Services preferred.
Strong experience in lead generation, prospecting and deal closure.
Excellent communication, presentation and negotiation skills.
Comfortable with cold calling, field sales and client meetings.
Working knowledge of CRM and sales pipeline management.
Comfortable speaking with founders, CXOs and business owners.
English required. Hindi / Kannada / Tamil / Telugu preferred.

You Should Be

You should be someone who takes responsibility for results, doesn't wait to be spoon-fed leads, handles rejection well and consistently follows through until the deal is closed.

Not a fit if you:

Prefer waiting for leads instead of generating them.
Are uncomfortable with cold calling or field meetings.
Don't enjoy working with sales targets.
Struggle with follow-ups or accountability.
Prefer a purely desk-based role.
Need constant supervision to perform.

Why Join Phoenix Branding

Work directly with founders, businesses and decision-makers.
Sell a diverse portfolio of branding, marketing and digital solutions.
Develop end-to-end B2B sales & business development expertise.
Build a strong professional network across Bengaluru.
Performance-based incentives and career growth opportunities.

If you enjoy finding opportunities, starting conversations, solving business problems and closing deals - we'd like to meet you.
