This is a 100% commission-based 1099 independent contractor role — no base salary.
Location: Remote (US) · Type: 1099 Independent Contractor · Compensation: 100% Commission-based
THE SHORT VERSION
Work from anywhere. You keep 100% of the 1st month's revenue on every client you close (37.5% of revenue in year 1), with ongoing monthly residuals, with zero fulfillment or client management (our team handles that). Your only job is bringing in new business and reaping the long-tail rewards.
ABOUT RESPONDPAL
RespondPal is a done-for-you Google and Yelp review response management service for local businesses. Our proprietary AI system drafts responses and a human approves them with a 24 hour response guarantee. It makes the business look engaged, empathetic for negative reviews, and HIPAA compliant (medical clients).
The service runs at $397/month per location with no contracts. Clients sign up, grant us manager access to their Google and Yelp profiles, and never think about review responses again.
THE ROLE
We're looking for independent B2B sales professionals to prospect local businesses and close new subscription clients. You set your own schedule, build your own pipeline, and use whatever prospecting methods work best for you — phone, email, networking, referrals, social media, door-to-door, or any combination.
What we provide to support your sales efforts:
- A branded @respondpal email address for professional communication
- Access to our proprietary Reputation Risk Audit system — a free branded report you can offer prospects that analyzes their Google and Yelp review responses for compliance issues, combative tone, and missed opportunities. This is an optional but powerful lead generation tool
- Sales kit with service details, key facts, pricing, and objection-handling guidance
- Client onboarding — once the client pays, we handle everything from setup through ongoing delivery
What you are responsible for:
- Finding and qualifying local business prospects who would benefit from professional review response management
- Building relationships and closing new subscription clients
- Walking new clients through payment and the onboarding form
What is NOT your responsibility:
- Writing, reviewing, or approving any review responses
- Client relationship management after onboarding
- Support tickets, billing issues, or account management
TARGET MARKET
Any local business with a Google and/or Yelp profile is a potential client. The service works across all industries: restaurants, auto repaid shops, law firms, veterinary practices, plumbers, electricians, etc. Healthcare verticals are low hanging fruit since their review responses carry HIPAA compliance risk that most practice owners don't know about.
COMMISSION STRUCTURE
Percentage-based. Scales automatically with every pricing tier.
Example with 1 location being serviced - $397/month billed
- Month 1: 100% of billings = $397 (you keep everything)
- Month 2: 75% of billings = $297.75
- Month 3: 50% of billings = $198.50
- Months 4 - 12: 25% of billings = $99.25/month
- Months 13 - 24: 15% of billings = $59.55/month
- Months 25+: 10% of billings = $39.70/month indefinitely (requires 10+ new sales each year to maintain status)
TOTAL: $1,786 year 1 (37.5% of revenue). Year 2+ = passive residual until the client cancels.
Close a 3-location client at $897/month? Your month one check is $897.
INCOME POTENTIAL
This depends entirely on your effort and ability. A few scenarios for reference:
- 3 clients/month: ~$37000 in year one with growing monthly residuals.
- 5 clients/month: ~$60,000 in year one with growing monthly residuals.
- 15 clients/month: ~$210,000 in year one with growing monthly residuals.
Multi-location deals, higher-tier pricing, and compounding residuals push these numbers higher over time.
WHO THRIVES IN THIS ROLE
- Experienced B2B sales professionals who know how to prospect, pitch, and close
- Self-starters who don't need daily direction — you manage your own pipeline and schedule
- People who are comfortable building relationships with local business owners and healthcare professionals
- Strong communicators who can explain a service simply and handle objections confidently
- People looking to build long-term residual income, not just one-time commissions
WHAT WE'RE NOT LOOKING FOR
- Anyone who needs a base salary or guaranteed income — this is 100% commission
- People who aren't comfortable with independent prospecting
- Anyone looking for a short-term gig — residuals reward long-term commitment
HOW TO APPLY
Email [email protected] with:
- Your name and location
- A brief description of your B2B sales experience (2-3 sentences is fine)
- Why this opportunity interests you
- Whether you've sold to local businesses or healthcare practices before
Pay: $40,000.00 - $80,000.00 per year
Application Question(s):
- How many years of experience do you have selling B2B services to local business owners (not consumers)?
- This role requires independent prospecting — you find your own leads through your own methods. Are you comfortable sourcing your own pipeline?
- This role is 100% commission with no base salary or draw. Are you comfortable with that?
