Founding Sales Executive — Dallas-Fort Worth

Company: Synthevo

Location: DFW metro area (prefer local to Frisco, McKinney, Plano Areas)

Work Style: Remote - field based

About Synthevo

Synthevo is an AI customer-operations platform built for automotive dealerships. We help dealerships respond faster, consistently follow up with customers, convert more opportunities into appointments, manage customer communications, and identify where revenue is being lost.

Our philosophy is simple:

Your CRM stores the lead. Synthevo works it. Your people close it.

We're hiring one of our first Sales Executives to help establish Synthevo in the Dallas-Fort Worth automotive market.

The Opportunity

This is an early-stage, commission-only field sales role for an entrepreneurial salesperson who wants significant earning potential and the opportunity to help build a sales organization from the ground up.

You'll work directly with Synthevo's founders to develop the DFW territory, prospect dealerships, conduct product demonstrations, and close new business.

This role will report directly to the Chief Operating Officer (COO), who is based in Frisco, Texas, ensuring close day-to-day alignment with leadership as we build and scale the DFW market.

This is not an inbound or appointment-setting position.

We're looking for a hunter and closer.

What You'll Do

Build and manage a DFW dealership territory
Prospect dealerships through in-person visits, phone, email, LinkedIn, networking, and referrals
Develop relationships with dealership owners, GMs, BDC leaders, Internet Directors, and Sales Managers
Identify gaps in lead response, follow-up, appointments, and customer engagement
Conduct discovery and Synthevo product demonstrations
Manage opportunities from initial contact through close
Self-generate and maintain a strong sales pipeline
Maintain disciplined CRM activity and follow-up
Help newly acquired customers successfully onboard during Synthevo's early growth stage
Share market intelligence and customer feedback directly with company leadership
Help refine the sales approach that Synthevo will ultimately scale nationally

Sales Expectations

Once fully ramped, our initial performance target is:

5 new dealership customers per month

We recognize that our first Sales Executives are helping establish a new territory and sales motion, and appropriate ramp time will be considered.

Compensation & Earning Potential

This is a commission-only position with no guaranteed base salary at launch.

Estimated Year 1 OTE: $125,000

Estimated Year 2 OTE: $250,000

Earning potential is uncapped.

Our compensation model rewards both new customer acquisition and the recurring revenue generated from business you originate, allowing successful Sales Executives to build increasing income as their book of business grows.

Additional performance incentives are available for achieving and exceeding sales targets.

OTE figures are estimates based on target performance and are not guaranteed. Full compensation details will be discussed with qualified candidates during the interview process.

Early Customer Ownership

As one of Synthevo's first Sales Executives, you'll initially remain involved with the customers you acquire, helping them onboard, launch, and successfully adopt the platform.

As Synthevo builds its Customer Success organization, routine account-management responsibilities will transition away from Sales.

Our long-term model is:

Close → Launch → Successful Adoption → Customer Success Handoff → Back to Selling

Our goal is ultimately to have Sales focused overwhelmingly on acquiring new business—not servicing existing accounts.

Who We're Looking For

Automotive experience is strongly preferred. Ideal backgrounds include:

Automotive Sales Consultant
Internet Sales / BDC
Internet Sales Manager
BDC Manager
Automotive Sales Manager
Automotive technology sales
High-performing B2B field sales
Other commission-driven sales roles

Exceptional sales ability can outweigh direct automotive experience.

You should be:

Competitive and highly self-motivated
Entrepreneurial
Comfortable with commission-only compensation
Confident walking into dealerships and creating conversations
Comfortable cold calling and generating your own pipeline
Persuasive and comfortable asking for the sale
Technologically savvy
Coachable and organized
Persistent and professional
Comfortable operating in an early-stage startup

Career Opportunity

This isn't simply another sales seat.

Our first successful Sales Executives will have an opportunity to help shape Synthevo's sales organization and potentially grow into leadership as we expand.

Potential progression includes:

Sales Executive → Senior Sales Executive → Market Lead/Director → Regional Sales Leadership → National Sales Leadership

Advancement will be based on performance, leadership, recruiting ability, coaching ability, and operational discipline—not simply tenure.

Why Join Now?

You'll work directly with Synthevo's founders, help establish our first major sales territory, influence how we go to market, and have an opportunity to grow alongside the organization.

If you're looking for a guaranteed salary and an established corporate sales structure, this isn't the right opportunity.

If you're confident in your ability to sell, want uncapped earning potential, and are excited about helping build a new automotive technology company from the ground up, we want to talk to you.
