Exit Factor
Salt Lake, UT Remote Contractor
POSTED ON 4/1/2026

Lead Generator & Community Connector - Build the Pipeline. Close the Deals. Create Your Own Success.

You Must Live in the Salt Lake City or Utah County Metro Area. This role is 100% community‑embedded. If you are not local, PLEASE DO NOT APPLY.

Exit Factor is searching for a high‑energy Business Development Consultant who thrives on meeting business owners, uncovering opportunities, and turning conversations into revenue.

This role is perfect for someone who:

  • Knows how to fill a pipeline from scratch,
  • Loves being out in the community connecting with business owners, and
  • Wants uncapped earnings with total autonomy.

If you’re a natural networker who closes deals by building trust—not by pushing—this might be the most rewarding role you’ve ever had.


What You'll Do

Become a trusted resource for small & mid-sized business owners:

  • Generate qualified leads directly from your local market through networking, community involvement, referrals, and targeted outreach.
  • Build strong relationships with CPAs, lenders, wealth advisors, attorneys, and business groups who regularly interact with business owners.
  • Engage business owners in discovery conversations to understand their exit readiness and growth challenges.
  • Present Exit Factor’s Exit Assessment and consulting programs using our proven process.
  • Close a minimum of one Exit Assessment per week and keep your pipeline consistently full.
  • Manage all activity and follow‑up in our CRM to ensure predictable revenue production.
  • Provide a clean, confident handoff to the consulting team once the deal is closed.

What Success Looks Like

Activity & Lead Generation

  • Generate 20–30 qualified business‑owner leads per month
  • Drive 2–4 referrals per month from power partners and centers of influence
  • Maintain a 75% show rate and 40% close rate

Revenue Production

  • Close 3 Exit Assessments per month (minimum of 36 annually)
  • Generate $80K annually in Exit Assessment revenue
  • Earn $80K–$150K in commission-based compensation
