Internship Opening (Unpaid, Remote)

This is an unpaid, remote internship in sales and business development. You will learn a real outbound sales process by applying it to NIL, reaching out to college athletes and turning conversations into signed athlete partnerships.

Electro makes the first functional electrolyte gum built for performance, focus, and recovery. The company has grown through NIL athlete partnerships, athlete-led social content, and one of the largest college ambassador programs in sports nutrition.
