Sales Development Intern - Spring 2027

We employ 1,300 people in operations, engineering, customer service and corporate roles. Call centers in Reno and two other locations handle customer service. Pension plan for most employees.

About the internship:

Lakeside Water is hiring a Sales Development Intern for Spring 2027. This is a sales internship. You will be on calls and writing outreach messages every day, so please apply only if you are comfortable talking to strangers. Fully remote. You can work from anywhere in the US. Normal working hours, Monday to Friday.

Responsibilities:

• Send personalised outreach messages on LinkedIn and email, 40 to 60 a day
• Join demo calls as note taker and send the summary to the prospect afterwards
• Share feedback from prospects with the product and marketing teams
• Research prospects before calls: company size, current tools, likely pain points
• Update every interaction in HubSpot or Zoho CRM on the same day
• Draft email templates for different customer segments and test them
• Make cold calls to qualified leads and book product demos for the sales manager

What we're looking for:

• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's program, graduating between December 2027 and June 2028
• Available 40 hours a week for the full internship
• Self-motivated and okay with targets. Some weeks will be slow, and that is normal
• Comfortable making 30 or more calls a day
• Able to take rejection without taking it personally
• Basic MS Excel or Google Sheets skills
• Interest in B2B sales or SaaS products
• Good internet connection that can handle video calls

Nice to have:

• Familiarity with LinkedIn Sales Navigator or Apollo
• Knowledge of a second language for international outreach

What you get out of it:

• You will own your own pipeline numbers by the second month
• End-to-end B2B sales process from prospecting to closing
• Performance-based incentives on top of the stipend
• How to use a CRM properly, which most fresh graduates never learn

Program dates: Spring 2027, 4 months.

Pay: $20.00 - $27.00 an hour

Perks:

• Flexible hours
• Paid company holidays
• Paid sick time
• Final presentation to leadership
