We provide people with more opportunities, confidence & income through publishing a book.
Our program is by far the best on the market which is why we have one of the highest student success rates of any online training company. We genuinely care about the success of our students a provide a great avenue for them to be successful.
Our company is driven by 2 unique viewpoints:
- It’s not about the book. It’s about what the book does for you.
- In going through the process, our students learn a lot about themselves and conquer fears, challenges & limiting beliefs they never knew existed.
They’re also surprised by all of the opportunities that pop up once their book is out there.
The purpose of our company is to disrupt the publishing industry and show people that self publishing is not only an option, it’s the BEST option.

We deliver an incredible product with a student success rate that’s second to none. We’re also very good at driving leads...400+ leads per day.
Currently we have more qualified leads than we have the ability to call on, and that’s where you come in...
The purpose of this role is to convert warm leads into customers for SelfPublishing.com in the most effective & efficient manner possible.
This will be done via consultative phone calls with prospects that have opted in to one of our free or low ticket resources for authors. The Sales Development Rep will be responsible for first learning about the aspiring author's goals, what has been holding them back, and where they are in the process. We then transition into setting no-cost appointments with one of our publishing strategists that are responsible for going deeper with the prospect, explaining our programs, and ultimately helping them get enrolled in SelfPublishing.com if it is a good fit on both sides.
What you'll do
Day to day, you’ll be making outbound phone calls to prospects that have already opted into one of our free or low cost resources for authors. They may have attended a webinar on how to write and publish a book, purchased a copy of Published, gone through our 24 Hour Book Outline Challenge, or opted into a whole host of other tools that we have to support authors before they are even a part of SelfPublishing.com.
As part of this opportunity, you’ll also be a part of a VERY fast paced and high growth company. You’re getting in at the ground floor of a growing sales team, and will have input and responsibility as we grow the team.
This is for you if:
- You’re the top rep at your current company (or at least in the top 5%)
- You’re great with people - and not afraid to challenge them to be their best
- You have a strong internal drive to help people through sales of a product you believe in, and hate missing out on potential sales opportunities
- You are an action taker, you’re good at problem solving and figuring things out on your own with minimal direction… you know how to create your own structured work environment.
- You are process driven - you don’t just look at a task, but innovate and find ways to improve the entire system
- You're coachable. You seek out growth opportunities at any change you get - actively reading and learning from books or courses to get better at your role
Qualifications
At SelfPublishing.com, we value work ethic, coachability, and your past sales results more than your degree (or lack thereof), GPA, etc.
Have you delivered results in a similar role in the past? If so, that’s what we’re looking for.
Required:
- MUST Live within 30 minutes of Austin, Texas
- At least 2 years of VERY high performance as a sales rep
- Minimum of $250,000 in sales of any product / service in the past
- CRM & sales process experience
Preferred:

- Minimum of $1M in lifetime sales of any product / service
- Experience with low ticket, high volume sales (ie. $5k max sales price, 1-2 call close) rather than longer cycle B2B/enterprise sales
The Pay
- Commission: Sliding scale based on production
- On target earnings in year 1 of $70,000-$95,000 based on your ability to sell.
- Our top performing Sales Development Reps can earn $100,000-$130,000 annually.
