Sales Intern

About Ridgeview Mutual Insurance:

Ridgeview Mutual Insurance is a property and casualty insurer writing policies in 30 states through independent agents.

The internship:

The Growth Team needs interns to build lead lists, reach out over LinkedIn, email and phone, and book demos for senior sales staff. Remote, open to candidates across the US. Normal business hours, Monday to Friday, with some flexibility. You will write a lot of updates, so clear written English is important.

Day to day:

• Prepare simple pitch decks and one-page proposals in Google Slides
• Update every interaction in HubSpot or Zoho CRM on the same day
• Follow up with leads who have gone quiet, using approved email sequences
• Draft email templates for different customer segments and test them
• Track daily and weekly targets in a shared sheet
• Research prospects before calls: company size, current tools, likely pain points
• Make cold calls to qualified leads and book product demos for the sales manager

What we're looking for:

• Available 40 hours a week for the full internship
• Currently enrolled in a bachelor's or master's program, graduating 2027 or 2028
• Based in the US for the duration of the internship
• Authorized to work in the US. CPT and OPT candidates are welcome to apply
• Basic MS Excel or Google Sheets skills
• Able to take rejection without taking it personally
• Good internet connection that can handle video calls

Preferred:

• Exposure to any CRM like HubSpot, Zoho or Salesforce
• Familiarity with LinkedIn Sales Navigator or Apollo

What you'll learn:

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

Duration: 6 months

Start date: Jan 2027

Stipend: $21.00 to $26.00 an hour

Perks:

• Intern events and speaker sessions (virtual)
