Description:Fast Lane Merchant Outreach & Sales Contractor (Must be local to NYC)
Overview
We are looking for a full-time contractor to support merchant outreach, pitch coordination, and
close activities for ***’s Fast Lane pilot.
Fast Lane is a new customer experience designed to help customers get their favorite lunch
items from popular restaurants faster during peak lunch hours. It creates a dedicated storefront
for participating merchants with a smaller set of top-performing SKUs, paired with logistics,
merchandising, and merchant prep levers to improve lunch delivery speed and reliability.
Program Goal
The goal is to have 20 Fast Lane merchants onboarded by the end of December.
The contractor should be local to the pilot market and able to travel to participating merchant
locations as needed. Exact location is still TBD, but potential markets may include Chicago,
Atlanta, or NYC.
What You’ll Do
1. Conduct merchant outreach
You will receive a merchant lead list and help move merchants through the outreach funnel by:
Reaching out to account managers or merchants directly, depending on the outreach
path provided
Following up if there is no response after 3 days
Scheduling pitch calls
Tracking outreach status and next steps
Escalating blockers during daily check-ins
2. Support pitch and close process
You will help support pitch calls and merchant close activities, including:
Preparing merchant-specific context before calls
Joining pitch calls when helpful
Tracking merchant questions and follow-ups
Confirming required store details once a merchant agrees to participate
Helping move merchants from interested to closed won
3. Maintain sales pipeline tracking
You will keep the merchant outreach and close tracker up to date, including:
Merchant name
Managed or unmanaged SMB
Account rep or merchant contact
Outreach status
Follow-up date
Pitch meeting date
Merchant questions or objections
Closed win status
Next steps and owner
Meeting Cadence
We will meet daily for a short check-in to review outreach progress, merchant responses, pitch
pipeline, blockers, and next steps.
What Success Looks Like
Success means helping build a strong merchant pipeline and closing enough participating
merchants to support the goal of onboarding 20 Fast Lane merchants by the end of December.
This includes keeping outreach moving, scheduling pitch meetings quickly, following up
consistently, and helping merchants get to a clear yes/no decision.
Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate is organized, proactive, and comfortable communicating with merchants,
account managers, and internal *** teams.
You should be comfortable with:
Conducting structured outreach and follow-up
Coordinating meetings
Preparing for merchant pitch conversations
Tracking details across spreadsheets and internal tools
Communicating clearly with internal and external stakeholders
Driving a sales or outreach process from lead list through close
Restaurant, marketplace, operations, or sales experience is a plus, but not required. The most
important qualities are ownership, clear communication, follow-through, and comfort moving
merchants through an outreach and close process.
