- Execute against team playbooks and outreach templates, and flag gaps for the team to refine.
- Keep all sales communications and deal work in CRM, with a high level of accuracy. This is a requirement.

Job description
About D3: D3 is building the world's first purpose-built blockchain for DomainFi, bringing domain tokenization and DeFi primitives to a $360B+ real-world asset class. We are changing how existing and future domain names are owned, traded, and financed.
