Assignment- Business Growth Intern- Founders’ Office
You’ll be given a target persona and product. Your job is to design an outbound sequence and
show us how you'd break into their inbox or calendar.
💡 We’re not looking for fancy decks or fluff — we want to see your thinking, creativity, and
hustle.
👤 Target Persona
Role: VP of Sales
Industry: Mid-sized B2B SaaS company in the US
Problem: Their sales team takes too long to ramp up. They’re hiring 10 reps this quarter and
struggling with onboarding & enablement.
🛠️ Product (Hypothetical)
Name: PitchBuddy
What it does: AI-powered sales simulator that lets reps practice mock calls, handle objections,
and get real-time feedback — all in a natural voice-based flow. Saves managers 50+
hours/month on training.
What You Need to Submit
1. List of High Intent Prospects and their Linkedin Profile- 10 people
○ Share your thought process to identify these prospects
2. 3-Step Cold Outreach Sequence (Email or LinkedIn DMs) [Goal High Reply Rate]
○ Keep it natural, concise, and attention-grabbing.
○ Focus on personalization that feels human, not just "I saw you went to XYZ
University."
○ Research from Apollo on how to do this
3. 1 Loom Video (under 2 min)
○ Record a video pretending you're sending a DM or cold email — pitch the value
of the product to this persona.
○ We’re testing your ability to think on your feet, sound natural, and pitch like a
human.
○ No fancy editing needed — Loom/screen recording is fine.
4. Optional Bonus: Share one unconventional tactic you’d try to get this person’s
attention. (It could be a meme, custom landing page, voice note, physical gift, etc.)
BONUS: Analytics Tracker – Measure What Matters
As part of this assignment, we want you to show us that you don’t just create — you track and
learn.
🔍 What You Need to Do:
1. Create a basic analytics tracker (Google Sheet is fine).
2. For your 3-step outreach sequence, create dummy campaigns to simulate the
following:
○ How many people you plan to reach
○ What your open/click/reply/demo-booked goals are
○ What you’ll track to decide if your outreach is working
🧠 What We’re Looking For:
● Thought process behind the metrics you pick
● Your ability to define a simple outbound funnel
● Use of tracking links or tools (even if hypothetical)
Suggestions for What to Include in the Tracker:
