User Acquisition Sales Lead

Couple.com is an AI-native dating startup reinventing how singles actually meet. We have ditched the endless swipe-and-ghost grind in favor of live, online singles parties powered by our AI Matchmaker and AI Wingman — real-time experiences where singles show up, connect, and actually hit it off. Dating has been broken for a decade. We are the ones finally fixing it.

### Key Responsibilities - **User Acquisition:** Drive attendance to Couple.com’s weekly online singles events through a mix of partnerships, outbound sales, community engagement, and creative campaigns. - **Partnerships:** Build relationships with organizers of singles groups, meetups, communities, and adjacent events to funnel their members into Couple.com. - **Field Sales & Recruiting:** Attend singles events, mixers, and gatherings — sometimes on nights and weekends — to recruit attendees and grow your network. - **Social Engagement:** Be active in comments, DMs, and online communities where singles spend their time, turning conversations into signups. - **Rapid Iteration:** Test new acquisition channels constantly. Kill what is not working, double down on what is. - **Retention Focus:** Acquire the right users — the ones who come back. Use repeat attendance as your signal for quality. - **Reporting & Accountability:** Own your numbers. Attendance growth, cost per attendee, and retention are your core KPIs.

### Requirements - A creative, resourceful, go-getter mindset. You do not wait for permission, and you do not wait for a budget. - A strong personal network is a major plus — whether that is in the singles/dating space, events, nightlife, creator economy, or community building. - Previous experience in sales, partnerships, community management, event production, influencer marketing, nightlife/promoting, or growth marketing is a plus, but not required. Attitude and track record of getting things done matter more than the titles on your resume. - Excellent communicator — in DMs, in person, on the phone, on stage if it comes to that. - Comfortable with ambiguity and willing to build the plane while flying it. - Willing to work some evenings and weekends as the job demands — attending events and being where the singles are. - Based in the US or Canada. This role is fully remote. - This is a contract role with a clear path to a full-time position.

### Benefits - **Compensation:** A combination of guaranteed pay and performance-based commission. You are rewarded for the results you put on the board. - **Expenses covered:** Approved job-related expenses — event tickets, travel to meetups, and the real-world costs of recruiting in the field — are on us. - **Path to full-time:** This contract role is built to grow into a full-time position as you prove the model. - **Fully remote:** Work from anywhere in the US or Canada. - **Flexible hours:** You set the schedule the job demands. - **Direct access to the CEO:** You report to the CEO and have a seat at the table on strategy, not just execution. - **Ground-floor role:** Join an AI-native startup backed by an established holding company with a track record of building real businesses. - **Real autonomy:** There is no playbook yet — you write it. If you can make it work, you can try it.
