OPPORTUNITY
Boom is looking for a hungry, outbound-minded Commercial Lead to own the full sales cycle and drive new logo acquisition across property management operators. This is a front-line closing role focused on prospecting into target accounts, running discovery and demo cycles, and landing new business that fuels Boom's next stage of growth.
You'll be responsible for building pipeline alongside our BDR function, running a disciplined sales process, and closing deals across our verticals (multifamily, single-family and manufactured housing). This is an ideal role for a competitive hunter who thrives on outbound motion, enjoys the hunt as much as the close, and wants early-AE equity and ownership at a Series A proptech company moving fast. To be a bit clearer on who we are looking for:
Who is a good fit: competitive drive to win (e.g. former athletes), defaults to phone first, willing to jump on a plane to get deals to close, high-tempo paced person, never lets a lead die.
Who is not a good fit: needs someone else to generate and qualify leads, defaults to scheduled Zooms and emails, limited willingness to be in person, too pushy/sales (we are consultative) or too soft.
WHAT YOU'LL DO
- Full-cycle selling: Own deals from first outreach through signed contract across Boom's core products (BoomScreen, BoomReport)
- Outbound prospecting: Self-source a meaningful portion of your pipeline through cold calls, email, LinkedIn, and in-person conference travel
- Discovery & demo: Run discovery conversations and product demos that map Boom's value to operator pain (fraud, bad debt, tenant quality, ancillary revenue)
- Conference & field sales: Travel heavily to industry events (NMHC, MHI, NARPM, IMN, regional apartment associations)
- Deal execution: Navigate multi-stakeholder buying committees across operations, IT, and executive teams at property management companies (where mid-market/enterprise)
- Pricing & negotiation: Structure commercial terms, negotiate pricing and contract terms, and get deals to close
- Pipeline hygiene: Maintain accurate forecasting, activity tracking, and opportunity notes in CRM (Attio)
- Market feedback: Partner with Product and Marketing to sharpen positioning, surface competitive intel, and inform roadmap priorities
- Team leverage: Work closely ... (truncated, view full listing at source)
