Job Description
DroneDeploy powers field teams with robotics and AI.
Key Responsibilities
- Rapid Lead Response: Prioritize and execute immediate follow-up with inbound leads from marketing campaigns, demo requests, and webinars through multi-channel outreach.
- Qualification & Discovery: Conduct initial discovery calls to understand prospect needs and qualify them against our ICP (Ideal Customer Profile).
- Seamless Handoff: Ensure a "white-glove" transition of qualified prospects to the Sales team.
- Feedback Loop: Provide actionable feedback to the Demand Gen team on lead quality and campaign effectiveness.
- Maintain high, disciplined multi-channel activity (calls, email, live chat, video, LinkedIn) and accurate CRM hygiene to consistently exceed monthly and quarterly qualified opportunity targets.
- Partner with Demand Generation and Sales on account and territory strategies, aligning campaigns, sequences, messaging, and follow-up cadences to maximize conversion and pipeline coverage.
- Share timely field insights on messaging, personas, tools, lead quality, and campaign performance to inform experimentation, improve plays and processes, and continuously strengthen demand generation and sales effectiveness.

- Strong verbal and written communication skills: Ability to actively listen to identify a prospect’s true pain point during a discovery call, handle objections, and educate prospects in a consultative manner.
- Organizational Skills: Exceptional time management; you must be able to juggle a high-volume lead queue and follow-up tasks without letting prospects slip through the cracks.
- Tech Stack: Proficiency with Salesforce (or similar CRM) and meeting scheduling tools (e.g., Calendly, Chili Piper),Gong, LinkedIn/Sales Navigator, Orum, and Zoominfo.
- Self-aware, coachable, and able to implement feedback in real time to overcome challenges.
- Intellectually curious and eager to bring your unique approach to the BDR role.
- Alignment with DroneDeploy’s core values: Build Trust, Simplify, Make It Happen.
