At Purple Dot, our vision for e-commerce is simple: Everything that gets made, gets sold.
Nearly 1 in 4 products is never sold — leading to major losses and massive waste within the industry. We believe this problem exists because of lack of control and flexibility over when brands can sell — with long, fixed timelines where brands have to wait until stock is at the warehouse to start selling. It’s time for a radical shift in how e-commerce operates.
Purple Dot is pioneering the pre-commerce category: helping brands sell earlier — before inventory arrives — to increase sell-through, reduce waste, and drive profitability. Whether stock is 1 day or 1 year away, our platform enables smarter, faster sales that reduce risk and unlock new growth.
Trusted by over 100 leading brands including Mattel, McLaren, New Era, Limited Run Games, and Oh Polly, we process millions in pre-orders every month and are proudly leading the category out front . Backed by top investors like OpenOcean, Connect, and Unusual Ventures, we’re a 22-person team based in NYC, Charlotte, and London — and led by second-time founders with a track record of acquisition.
As Head of Sales at Purple Dot, you will play the crucial player-coach role in leading and growing our 4 person sales team. You will also manage our growth marketer and marketing budget to create leads for your team.
You will own new revenue growth by creating and converting demand into predictable and scalable sales.
