You will handle customers who have already expressed interest through our website, calls, WhatsApp, advertisements, and other channels.
Your primary responsibility is simple:

* Follow up systematically with prospective customers until closure.
* Handle customer objections related to pricing, location, property suitability and availability.

* Coordinate with the Reservations and Property teams for availability and property confirmation.
* Arrange property visits when required and actively follow up after visits.
* Maintain accurate customer information, follow-ups and sales status in the company's CRM/database.
* Ensure no qualified enquiry is missed or left unattended.
* Maintain professional communication throughout the customer journey.
* Identify recurring reasons for lost bookings and report them to management.
* Work towards individual and team revenue and conversion targets.

Performance will be measured primarily on **output and conversion**, including:
* Booking conversion rate
* Revenue generated
* Number of confirmed bookings
* Qualified lead-to-booking conversion
* Response time to new enquiries
* Follow-up completion rate
* Property visit-to-booking conversion
* Lead ageing and pending enquiries
* CRM/database discipline
* Customer experience and communication quality
## Who We're Looking For
* 2–5+ years of experience in inbound sales, inside sales, reservations, hospitality, real estate, travel, accommodation or similar customer-facing sales roles.
* Strong ability to understand customer requirements and close sales.
* Excellent verbal communication and negotiation skills.
* Strong follow-up discipline.
* Comfortable working with sales targets and measurable KPIs.
* Ability to handle multiple enquiries simultaneously without losing follow-ups.
* Comfortable using CRM systems, WhatsApp and digital sales tools.
* Strong problem-solving ability and customer orientation.
* Candidates with experience in hospitality, serviced apartments, hotels, travel, real estate or rental businesses will have an advantage.
## What We Value
We are looking for someone who demonstrates:
**Ownership** — Takes responsibility for every assigned enquiry.
**Speed** — Responds quickly and keeps the sales process moving.
**Persistence** — Follows up intelligently without waiting for customers to return.
**Customer Understanding** — Identifies what the customer actually needs rather than simply pushing available inventory.
**Commercial Thinking** — Understands pricing, negotiation, conversion and revenue.
**Output Orientation** — Measures success through bookings and revenue, not merely calls or messages.
## Compensation
**Fixed Salary + Performance Incentives**
Performance incentives will be linked to measurable outcomes such as booking conversion, revenue achievement and individual sales targets.
High performers will have significant opportunities for increased responsibility and career growth.
## Ideal Candidate
You may be a strong fit if you can confidently say:
