Get paid to learn sales from a founder — and build residual income that keeps paying you.
Fountain Payments is a one-founder fintech company in St. Pete Beach. We built software (Fountain Bridge) that saves local contractors — HVAC, pool, landscaping, tree care — thousands of dollars a year on credit card processing fees. It works, it's live, and real Tampa Bay businesses are already using our programs.
Now we have a list of ~200 warm, researched local prospects who fit the product perfectly. Your job: call them, book a 15-minute demo with the founder, and get paid every time one closes — not just once, but every month they stay a customer.
What you'll actually do:
- Call and follow up with local business owners from a pre-built, researched prospect list (no scraping, no list-building — that part's done)
- Book qualified 15-minute demos onto the founder's calendar
- Learn the pitch for two products: Fountain Bridge (payment savings for contractors) and Lavu (restaurant point-of-sale)
- Track your calls and outcomes in a simple shared sheet
- Sit in on demos and closes so you learn the full sales cycle, not just dialing
What we pay:
- Hourly base — this is not commission-only
- Per-demo bonus for every qualified meeting that shows up
- Residual commission: a monthly percentage of the processing revenue on every account you sourced, for as long as it stays active. Close a handful of merchants and you've built yourself a paycheck that arrives whether you worked that month or not. Almost no entry-level job offers this.
Who this fits:
- You're hungry, coachable, and genuinely like talking to people
- Comfortable making 30–50 calls a day and hearing "no" without flinching
- Organized enough to log every call and follow up on time
- Local to St. Pete / Tampa Bay (some in-person days with the founder)
- Sales experience is a plus, not a requirement — attitude beats résumé here
- Students and recent grads welcome; hours are flexible around class schedules
Why this beats a normal part-time job: You'll work directly with a founder whose background is enterprise software sales — ConstructConnect, Schneider Electric — and who will personally teach you how to sell. You'll see how a real fintech product goes to market. And if you're good, this role grows with the company: first hire, biggest upside.
Part-time to start (15–25 hrs/week), with a clear path to more.
