**[Fella Health](https://www.joinfella.com/) is the telehealth clinic for men with obesity, backed by Y Combinator.**\nWith Fella, patients meet a board-certified obesity doctor to prescribe FDA-approved medications, while they undertake personalized health coaching through our app.\n\nObesity is the largest chronic disease in the US (>$100bn spent each year) and the traditional solution ("move more, eat less") only works long-term for ~10% of people. But obesity treatment is radically changing due to a new wave of medication options which are 2-3x more effective than previous options. In addition, only 10% of those using weight management services are men: all programs market to women, not tackling the stigma men feel around this.\n\nFella's founders are [Luke](https://www.linkedin.com/in/luke-harries) & [Richie](https://www.linkedin.com/in/richard-cartwright). We studied together at Cambridge University.\n\n- Lukeย studied pre-med and developed a patented AI approach to detecting cancerย at a YC bio company, before moving to Microsoft Research. He also has a masters in Computer Science.\n- Richie was a data scientist, building and selling an AI company working with the UK government. He personally struggled with binge eating for 6 years, and built a 10k-follower Instagram community around menโs binge eating.\n\nYou can read more about the mission, the rest of the team, and working at Fella here:\n[https://fella.notion.site/Working-at-Fella-14a2ac8575d34d148d009bb410387af4](https://www.notion.so/Working-at-Fella-Health-14a2ac8575d34d148d009bb410387af4)\n\nFella Health is live in Texas, and we recently closed a Seed round to expand nationwide.

As the Founding Sales Rep at Fella, youโre an important part of the broader founding team. Youโll work closely with our Head of Growth to help increase conversion for our marketing funnel. Youโll own your own infrastructure & pipeline, run a process for doing outbound calls to warm prospects, and transfer your learnings to the rest of the team to improve our general strategy. Youโll play a key role in developing the playbook so the sales team can expand around you. \n\nThis role is fully remote (US hours), is full-time (FTE), and has flexible working hours.\n\nYou'll work closely with the founders, and report directly to Fella's Head of Growth [Dave Lane](https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidanthonylane/).\n\n## Key responsibilities\n\n- *Build your infrastructure*: Youโll work closely with our Head of Growth & Founding Engineer to build out an optimized tech stack for your work. Youโll know what you want to start (CRM, dialer, SMS & email automation, etc), be comfortable setting this up with guidance from engineering, then constantly iterate to improve your efficiency over time.\n- *Outbound calls to inbound leads*: Youโll own the process of reaching out to potential fellas (Fella customers) who have dropped off in our funnel. With our Head of Growth, youโll decide which experiments to run (e.g. whether to call drop-offs immediately, whether to use FB lead ads) and how best to prioritize leads. Youโll own both โopeningโ and โclosingโ the fella, building trust on a delicate healthcare subject.\n- *Handle inbound*: Youโll own all inbound from potential fellas. Youโll be comfortable closing fellas who have booked calls from our email sequences, and youโll stay on top of all inbound messages from fellas: replies to our email/SMS sequences, replies to our FB ads, pre-conversion messages on our website.\n- *Nurture your pipeline*: Youโll own your sales pipeline. Youโll follow-up diligently after calls, loop round on SMS to fellas who havenโt yet closed, and handle customer objections gracefully. Youโll tightly prioritize across your pipeline.\n- *Create the playbook*: Youโll furiously iterate the sales process, then build out the playbook so we can build out the team. Youโll routinely analyze call recordings to determine what is going well and what you can improve. Youโll review prioritization of leads, iterate your sales scripts, and reconsider value props. Once youโre happy with the process, youโll ensure this playbook is ready for building out the team around you.\n- *Transfer your learnings*: Youโll be spending lots of time with potential fellas, so youโll have great customer insights youโll transfer to our Head of Growth & founders. Youโll have strong thoughts on funnel improvements to improve conversion, potential changes to customer segments & value props, and product recommendations to match fellasโ desires.\n\n## Need to have\n\n- You can work hours in a US timezone to reach fellas at good times for them.
