Join Customer Equity Labs
Founder's Associate — Growth & Client Success
Part-time 1099 contract | Las Vegas | Approximately 15 hours/week | $20/hour + commission
- Work directly with the founder
- Growth and client success
- AI-focused company
The role
Help build the commercial operating system around the founder.
Customer Equity Labs is growing, and I'm looking for one unusually resourceful person to work directly with me as we build the company.
Our work sits at the intersection of AI, business strategy, and customer economics. We help companies identify where AI can create revenue, redesign work, improve customer value, and compete in an AI-driven business environment.
This role is focused on business development, sales follow-through, and client success. Administrative tasks may support that work, but they are not the job.
Your mission: make sure every good opportunity moves forward, from first introduction through signed deal and clean client handoff, without the founder driving every step.
What you'll own
Keep the work moving.
You will help run the commercial process around the founder. That includes the details that turn interest into revenue and new business into a strong client start.
- Keep qualified opportunities moving and maintain clear next actions.
- Follow up persistently with prospects, referrals, and existing clients.
- Turn introductions and networking conversations into real meetings.
- Research and originate new opportunities.
- Attend selected Las Vegas business and networking events.
- Coordinate proposals, decisions, and sales follow-through.
- Identify expansion opportunities with existing clients.
- Make sure new clients complete intake, access, scheduling, and kickoff requirements.
- Learn our AI strategy, AI Answers, AI visibility, AI agent, and workshop offerings.
- Gradually handle more early-stage sales conversations and client handoffs independently.
What stays with Allison
Founder time goes where it has the most value.
Allison remains closely involved when her experience and judgment are central to the work:
- Important executive and prospect conversations
- High-level AI strategy and advisory
- Product and intellectual-property development
- Strategic partnerships
- Speaking and high-visibility opportunities
- Complex client judgment
You'll bring Allison into the process at the highest-value point, then keep the work organized before and after her involvement.
Who will thrive here
Experience matters less than the way you operate. You notice what needs to happen, find the missing information, and close the loop.
- You follow up without being reminded.
- You close loops.
- You are fast without being careless.
- You are persistent without being obnoxious.
- You can manage many conversations without losing details.
- You are comfortable communicating with senior businesspeople.
- You write clearly.
- You are commercially curious and interested in how businesses make money.
- You use AI naturally or are highly motivated to learn.
- When something is unclear, your first instinct is to investigate.
- If the founder becomes the bottleneck, you tell her exactly what you need and when you need it.
Sales, business development, client success, account management, entrepreneurship, or similar experience can all be relevant. An exceptional earlier-career candidate is welcome. Demonstrated initiative matters more than years of experience.
How success is measured
Good opportunities keep moving.
Qualified opportunities should always have a clear next action and should not sit unattended for more than 48 hours.
We run our own custom AI-driven CRM to reduce administrative work and increase your probability of success.
