About the Internship

Owlera is an early-stage startup, and we're looking for a hungry Business Development Intern to help us grow from zero. You'll work directly with the founding team on real go-to-market execution — finding leads, running outreach, building partnerships, and turning conversations into pipeline. This is a hands-on, remote, 6-week unpaid internship for someone who wants to learn how startups actually win customers, not just watch from the sidelines.

Responsibilities

• Research and identify potential leads, prospects, and target customer segments

• Build and maintain targeted lead lists using LinkedIn, directories, and web research

• Run outbound outreach campaigns via email and LinkedIn to prospective clients and partners

• Draft personalized outreach messages and multi-step follow-up sequences

• Qualify inbound and outbound leads against our ideal customer profile

• Schedule discovery calls and product demos for the founding team

• Maintain and update the CRM / pipeline tracker with accurate, organized lead data

• Assist in preparing pitch decks, one-pagers, and partnership proposals

• Research competitors, pricing, and market trends, and summarize findings clearly

• Identify potential partnership, integration, and distribution opportunities

• Support partnership outreach and coordinate introductory meetings

• Track outreach metrics (open rates, reply rates, meetings booked) and report weekly

• Test and iterate on messaging, subject lines, and value propositions

• Help draft case studies and request testimonials from early users

• Join weekly growth standups and share learnings with the team

• Suggest content ideas (posts, guides) that attract inbound leads

• Document outreach and lead-qualification playbooks for the team

Requirements

• Strong written communication skills in English

• Comfortable with outreach — persistent, professional, and not discouraged by rejection

• Highly organized and detail-oriented; able to manage lists and follow-ups reliably

• Self-motivated and able to work independently in a remote setting

• Genuinely curious about startups, sales, and go-to-market strategy

• Familiar with LinkedIn and email tools, or a fast learner

• Analytical mindset — comfortable with spreadsheets and simple metrics

• Available 10–15 hours per week for 6 weeks

• Student, recent graduate, or early-career professional welcome

• Bonus: any prior experience in sales, marketing, customer-facing roles, or student organizations

What You'll Gain

• Real, hands-on experience running outbound sales and lead generation

• Direct mentorship from the founding team

• A first-hand look at how an early-stage startup builds pipeline from zero

• Practical CRM and sales-tool skills

• Copywriting skills for outreach that actually converts

• Market research and competitive-analysis experience

• Exposure to partnership development and deal-making

• Weekly feedback to sharpen your commercial instincts

• A portfolio of real campaigns and measurable results to show employers

• Certificate of completion at the end of the internship

• Letter of recommendation for strong performers

• LinkedIn recommendation for strong performers

• Networking with startup founders and operators

• Potential path to a paid role or extended engagement

• A flexible remote schedule that fits around your studies
