Happy Saturday, everyone!

Most new hires spend their first month learning your customers' vocabulary. This week's three already speak e-commerce: one books founders and C-suite buyers at retail brands, one grows the accounts you already have, and one runs the store operations so nothing slips. With Black Friday about nine weeks out, that's a month of ramp time you get back.

At Go Carpathian, we cut hiring timelines from months to days by:
✔️ Headhunting from top-performing sales, account management and operations teams
✔️ Testing for communication, resilience, and commercial judgment
✔️ Vetting for English proficiency & U.S. cultural fluency

Instead of endless LinkedIn sourcing and interviews, you'll meet 3 e-commerce-fluent hires you can interview this week. Each one plugs into a store, a SaaS sales team or an agency without a translation layer.

Candidate #1

📍Serbia |💰$3,500/month | Full-Time

He is a senior account executive and team lead who gets founders and C-suite buyers to reply on LinkedIn. His outreach put a merchant SaaS platform in front of a national fuel retailer's decision-makers and won a pilot across 100+ retail stations. He's been named Account Executive of the Quarter multiple times, and his engineering degree means technical products don't slow him down.

Why you should hire him immediately:

  • Won a pilot rollout across 100+ retail fuel stations by connecting a merchant SaaS platform's leadership directly with the retailer's decision-makers

  • Drove SaaS growth for an unboxing-experience platform built for Shopify merchants, selling to C-suite leaders, brand owners and agency decision-makers

  • Speaks the merchant's language: retention, post-purchase engagement, unit economics

  • Builds targeted executive prospect lists by combining LinkedIn Sales Navigator with Apollo exports

  • A/B tests hooks, value propositions and CTAs, tracks reply rates in the CRM, and rewrites whatever underperforms

  • Wrote the outbound LinkedIn and email sequences for enterprise tech, fintech and medtech accounts, consistently meeting pipeline targets

  • Ran executive-level campaigns for a delivery-management SaaS, building pipeline in retail supply chain

Tools: LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Apollo, custom CRM systems, AI tools for outreach strategy and optimization

Strengths: Executive outreach • Account-based outreach • A/B-tested messaging • Consultative discovery • Pipeline hygiene • Agency and 3PL partner referrals • Technical product fluency

Candidate #2

📍South Africa |💰$1,500 -  2,000/month | Full-Time

She is a strategic account manager who grows revenue from customers you've already won. She runs a portfolio of high-value hospitality and wholesale accounts, finding upsells in HubSpot that raise average order value. Before that she made 250–300 cold calls a day, so she can open new doors too.

Why you should hire her immediately:

  • Main strategic contact for a portfolio of high-value hospitality and trade/wholesale accounts

  • Raises average order value by spotting upsell and cross-sell opportunities in HubSpot and recommending products tailored to each account

  • Consistently beat sales targets for a global workspace provider in the UK market

  • Ran 250–300+ dials a day in high-volume outbound. From about 250 calls she'd get around 90 conversations, 30 serious prospects and 5–10 potential closes

  • Finds the real objection: when a prospect kept deferring to "the decision-maker," she got that person on the call, learned price was the real issue, and rebuilt the order around quantities that worked

  • Doesn't let "just send me an email" end a call. She asks what they need to see and handles it live

  • Led QA and coached teams serving US and UK markets

  • 6+ years fully remote with US, UK, Singapore and Australian companies

Tools: HubSpot (advanced), Salesforce, MS Dynamics, BigCommerce, B2BNinja, LinkedIn Sales Navigator, Slack, Trello, Google Analytics, Google Workspace, MS Office

Strengths: Account management • Upselling & cross-selling • AOV growth • Churn prevention • Cold calling • Objection handling • Consultative discovery • Wholesale partnerships

Candidate #3 

📍Bosnia|💰$2,000/month | Full-Time

She is an operations manager and executive assistant with six years of running the back office for e-commerce brands, agencies and a US media company. Right now she manages Shopify orders and subscriptions for one brand and a TikTok Shop affiliate program for another. At a previous company she was the go-to contact for 40+ business accounts at once.

Why you should hire her immediately:

  • Runs Shopify store operations for a DTC brand: orders, subscriptions and customer communication

  • Manages a TikTok Shop affiliate program for a UK supplement brand: vets and recruits creators, keeps the affiliate CRM current, and handles every affiliate question

  • Was the main contact for 40+ business accounts at a social media company

  • Handled bookkeeping, payroll and full onboarding and offboarding for a US media company as operations manager

  • Sets up active-lead and active-client tracking in Notion, plus invoice and client tracking

  • Writes SOPs so processes don't live in one person's head

  • Manages inboxes, executive calendars, meetings and professional correspondence

  • Has run several remote roles in parallel without dropping delivery. She holds an economics degree and is studying for a Master's

Tools: Shopify, TikTok Shop, Cruva, Notion, Airtable, Asana, QuickBooks, HubSpot, ActiveCampaign, Google Workspace, Microsoft Office, Canva, Adobe Premiere Pro, Hootsuite, Publer, Feedhive, Google Analytics, WordPress, Mighty Networks

Strengths: Operations management • Inbox & calendar management • Invoicing & bookkeeping • SOP documentation • Shopify & subscription ops • Affiliate management • Onboarding • Multi-client coordination
