Commission-based sales partner wanted for Annasvarar.is, an Icelandic AI startup
About this role
Polish, English and Icelandic speakers all welcome. Work for yourself, uncapped commission, full training and materials provided.*
Who we are. Corveria is an Icelandic technology company. Our product, Anna (annasvarar.is), is an AI customer-service agent built specifically for Icelandic businesses. She answers customer questions on a company's website around the clock, in polished, natural Icelandic, and hands over to a human whenever needed. We think of her as a teammate ("liðsfélagi"), not a chatbot. Her real strength, and the thing no international competitor can easily copy, is the quality of her Icelandic.
What we're looking for. One self-starting person to sell Anna to small and medium businesses in Iceland, as an independent contractor on commission. You reach out to potential clients, show them a quick live demo, and sign them up. We handle everything after the sale: setup, training the client, and ongoing support. You focus on finding businesses and closing them.
This suits you if you're comfortable earning from commission rather than a fixed salary, you follow through on things, and you either already know a lot of Icelandic business owners or you're confident you can reach them. A short live demo does most of the selling, so you don't need to be technical. You do need to be able to run it and speak to what Anna does.
The Polish opportunity (and Icelandic, and English). If you speak Polish, you can open a door most salespeople can't. Iceland's Polish community runs a large number of small businesses, in trades, cleaning, hospitality, retail and food, and many owners would rather do business in their own language. The pitch to them is simple: Anna lets your business serve Icelandic and English-speaking customers professionally, around the clock, in good Icelandic, even if Icelandic isn't your own strongest language. You'd be reaching owners an Icelandic-only salesperson struggles to reach, with something that solves a real problem for them. Icelandic and English each open their own doors too, so all three languages are valuable here. Icelandic is a welcome bonus, not a requirement.
How the commission works. You earn 20% of each client's monthly subscription, every month, for the first 12 months they're with us. Commission is paid from real client payments, so you start earning once a client you signed makes their first payment.
How we work together. This is a contractor arrangement (verktaki), not employment. You invoice us for your commission, you set your own hours, and you're free to do this alongside other work or clients. To get you going, we give you a full sales deck, a working demo of Anna, personal training on the product and the pitch, and a starter list of businesses worth approaching. Any clients you find on your own are yours to earn from in exactly the same way. You will receive full support and steady communication in order to succeed.
Interested? Send a short message telling us a bit about yourself, which businesses or communities you think you could reach, and why this appeals to you. If you've sold anything before, mention it, but drive and follow-through matter more to me than a sales background. Write to: contact@corveria.com.
