Become an independent Business Development Manager
We are looking for competent, serious business development people to onboard as many companies, factories and individual sellers (new advertisers) as possible onto Made in Africa.io — across all SADC countries, including South Africa.
Here's the deal
Remote, SADC-wide
Work from anywhere in the SADC region, including South Africa.
Subcontractor, not an employee
No employment contract. You run your own business, on your own schedule.
Start selling right away
Get your own seller code as soon as your application is approved.
Get paid once confirmed
The company enters YOUR code at checkout. When their payment is confirmed, your commission is paid by bank transfer or mobile money.
Commission: 15% to 30%
Your rate scales with your confirmed onboardings each month.
Recurring yearly commission
Every year a company you signed up renews, you earn again.
Free 12-module training course
Complete the training course and qualify to become a contracted mass-sales contractor.
This is NOT a job with a contract of employment
You work remotely as an independent subcontractor / sales contractor. There is no employment contract, no salary and no employee benefits, and you handle your own tax. After the training course you sign a sales contractor agreement — you remain independent and are paid only on commission.
How the contracting works
Apply and get approved
Take the free training course below and pass the final assessment. Our team reviews your application, and once approved you sign the sales contractor agreement and receive your unique seller code (format MIA-0000) and your seller dashboard.
Sell right away
Prospect companies, factories and individuals across the SADC region and get them to advertise on Made in Africa.io.
Code at checkout
The company enters your seller code in the "Seller / referral code" field at checkout when paying for their advertising package. The code confirms who the seller is and how much commission is due. No code = no attribution = no commission.
Paid once confirmed
When the company's payment is confirmed and cleared, your commission is locked and paid within 7 business days by bank transfer or mobile money.
How commissions work
