Our talented and motivated team is scattered across the globe with team members hailing from every continent but Antartica! We're constantly on the lookout for great talent to join our awesome team. If you’d like to become part of the Kinsta family, hit apply or drop us a line, we’d love to talk to you!

Our client base is growing steadily, and we’re looking for a competent Inbound Sales Representative with exceptional communication skills to be an amazing first point of contact for the inbound sales process!
As a Kinsta Inbound Sales Representative, you will:
  • Answer questions regarding our hosting plans, features, capabilities, and platform from all leads that are generated by our marketing team’s efforts. This may include leads from our website, chat, social media, sales email, or any other inbound contact method.
  • Discuss with sales leads their requirements, needs, and questions via email/ticket and pre-scheduled phone calls.
  • Respond to leads in a way that takes into account their skill level, expectations, and needs. The skill level of our existing and potential client base varies from beginner to expert and everything in between. Additionally, our client base ranges from personal blogs and websites to e-commerce and all the way up to mission critical enterprise websites. As such, the ability to gauge and sense how to approach inbound sales leads is imperative!
  • Produce satisfied customers by helping people, understanding their needs, demonstrating expertise to build trust, and guiding the customer to the right product or service. This is not a role where memorizing keywords, reading from scripts, or simply replying with knowledge base links is acceptable!
  • Provide billing-related assistance to customers by answering questions about plan upgrades and downgrades, invoice line items, processing fees, add-on changes, and other account-related matters.
  • Monitor trends and provide feedback gathered from the inbound sales process to the appropriate internal team.
  • In coordination with the team, help create, standardize, and document sales and billing processes and workflows.
  • Engage in ongoing education to develop relevant skills and knowledge.
  • Keep up to date with developments in the WordPress community to understand upcoming changes and issues faced by WordPress users.
This role's shift need is Monday-Friday 1pm-9pm UTC.
