Sales Representative - School Management Software (India Only) | High Commission + Bonuses

Company: Gamespace Labs Role: Sales Representative (Commission-Based with Growth Path) Location: Remote (India - Any City)

About the Role

We build management software for schools and coaching institutes. Our platform handles attendance, fee tracking, homework distribution, parent communication, and online classes - basically replacing the WhatsApp chaos and Excel mess that 90% of Indian educational institutes still use.

We're live with actual clients. The product works. Now we need people who can scale sales.

Deal Size

₹50,000 to ₹2,00,000 per client (depending on institute size and features)

Why It Sells

Post-COVID, every institute knows they need to digitize. Most are still stuck with manual processes. You're solving a real, visible problem they deal with daily.

  • Education sales have strong network effects - one happy client typically refers 3-5 others
  • Most deals close within 1-2 weeks after initial demo

Your Responsibilities

Lead Generation:

  • Identify potential clients in your city/region

FAQs

Q: Is there a base salary?
A: Not immediately. We're early stage and being transparent about it. High performers transition to base + commission once we hit revenue milestones.

Q: How quickly do I get paid?
A: Commission paid upon deal closure (when we receive client payment). No delays.

Q: Do I need sales experience?
A: Preferred but not mandatory. Network and hustle matter more. We'll train you on the sales process.

Q: What if I'm in a small city?
A: Even better. Less competition, and every city has 50+ potential clients within 10km.

Q: Can I do this part-time?
A: Yes, especially to start. Many institutes meet after school hours anyway.

Q: What's the equity structure?
A: We discuss specific terms with performers who consistently hit 20+ deals. It's real ownership, not just ESOP promises.
