Head of Sales Marketing

Nov 2025Present · 4 mos · India · Hybrid

  • Elephant Edge OS — a repeatable outbound sales system designed for founder-led teams selling from India, MENA, and SEA to global markets.
  • It’s not theory. It’s execution.
  • We install the same system that helped 250+ startups:
  • → Build a Dream 100 prospect list
  • → Write cold emails and DMs that get replies
  • → Book 3–5 discovery calls/month
  • → Train junior reps to run outbound independently
  • If you're a founder struggling with outbound, referrals slowing down, or reps not performing — this system was built for you.
