Maison Italic: High-ticket sales for luxury Italian furniture.
Maison Italic is a premier interior architecture and procurement house that brings the world-renowned "Made in Italy" excellence to high-end residential and commercial projects. With a portfolio of over 500 elite Italian manufacturers, we provide turnkey solutions for discerning clients who demand the highest standards of design and craftsmanship. We are seeking a seasoned Outbound Sales Professional to act as our brand ambassador. Your mission is to initiate relationships with high-net-worth individuals (HNWIs), property developers, and commercial architects to introduce our bespoke design and procurement services. Key Responsibilities Strategic Outbound Prospecting: Conduct cold calls to a curated list of potential clients and partners to introduce Maison Italic’s value proposition. Lead Qualification: Identify the specific needs of prospects, ranging from turnkey interior design to bespoke furniture procurement. Appointment Setting: Successfully bridge the gap between initial contact and a formal consultation with our design team. CRM Management: Maintain meticulous records of calls, follow-ups, and lead status. Brand Representation: Communicate with the sophistication and professional vocabulary expected in the luxury furniture and architecture industry. Required Skills & Experience Proven Track Record: Minimum 5 years of experience in high-ticket outbound sales or business development. Industry Knowledge: Familiarity with the luxury furniture market, interior design, or the "Made in Italy" sector is highly preferred. Exceptional Communication: Fluent, persuasive English (additional languages like Italian or Arabic are a plus) with a polished "corporate-executive" tone. Resilience: A veteran mindset—able to navigate gatekeepers and turn "no" into "not right now." What We Provide Legal Backing: You will be representing a brand fully owned and operated by Global Concierge, a registered entity under RAK International Corporate Centre (Registration No: 0149). Marketing Support: Access to our digital portfolio and website (https://maisonitalic.com) to support your sales efforts. Compensation: Competitive hourly rate plus a highly attractive commission structure on successful conversions/contracts. How to Apply Please provide a brief summary of your most successful high-ticket sales achievement. If you have a recording of a past sales call or a voice sample, please include it. We are looking for the "voice" of Maison Italic. The "Maison Italic" Executive Sales ScriptPhase 1: The Hook (The First 15 Seconds) "Good morning/afternoon, [Prospect Name]. My name is [Salesperson Name] calling from the London/Dubai office of Maison Italic. I’m reaching out because we are currently expanding our portfolio of turnkey interior projects in [Prospect’s City/Region], and your recent project at [Reference a specific project if known] caught our attention." Phase 2: The Value Proposition "We specialize in bridging the gap between high-end architectural vision and the 'Made in Italy' manufacturing world. We represent over 500 elite Italian manufacturers, providing everything from bespoke furniture and lighting to full-scale interior architecture. Essentially, we act as the single point of contact—handling the design, the direct procurement from Italy, and the final installation." Phase 3: The Discovery Question "I noticed on your website that you focus on [Luxury Residential/Commercial Spaces]. Are you currently managing any projects where sourcing authentic, high-caliber Italian craftsmanship has been a challenge or where you're looking for a more streamlined 'turnkey' solution?" Phase 4: Handling the "I already have a supplier" Objection "I completely understand. Most of our partners already have established channels. However, Maison Italic is unique because we provide direct access to the manufacturers that aren't typically available through standard retail showrooms. Because we operate under our parent facility, Global Concierge, we handle the entire logistics and banking tail, so you don't have to deal with multiple international vendors." Phase 5: The Close (The Appointment) "I’d love to send you a digital copy of our latest curated portfolio so you can see the quality of our recent installations. Beyond that, would you be open to a 10-minute introductory call next Tuesday with our Head of Design? We can discuss how we might be able to simplify your procurement for your next project." If Accepted we will need to sign an NDA subject to receiving passport and ID documents and proof of address of the agent. At Maison Italic, we don't hire 'callers'; we hire future partners. While we provide a $300 base to cover your desk, our top performers in this role earn over $1,500 a month. One project close for a luxury villa could earn you a bonus that pays for your entire year's rent.

I am looking for an experienced children’s puzzle writer and/or activity book creator to develop 50 original, immersive detective mystery cases for children aged 7–9. The working tile of teh book is 'The Holiday Detective Activity Book for Kids Ages 7–9”'. This is not a story book but a kids activity book for school holidays based on solving mysteries . The aim of this book is to make children feel like they are real detectives solving mysteries, rather than simply completing standard activity book puzzles. This should NOT feel like a typical kids’ activity book filled with word searches, crosswords, or random puzzles. Core Creative Requirement: **Each case should: Make the child feel like a detective investigating a mystery Be driven by a storyline with clues Encourage logical thinking, deduction, and reasoning Feel purposeful and investigative rather than “puzzle for puzzle’s sake” **Not all cases need to use traditional puzzles. Some mysteries may be solved through: Process of elimination Careful reading of clues Logical reasoning based on evidence Comparing statements from suspects **In some cases, the child may be given: A list of suspects A set of clues or witness statements A timetable, map, or simple diagram **The child should use these to work out: Who did it What happened Where or when it happened **Scope of Work You will create 50 unique detective cases, each including: Case Title - Fun, mystery-themed, age-appropriate Short Storyline / Scenario Engaging and easy to read Positive, child-friendly tone No violence, crime, or dark themes Relatable everyday situations for children **Investigation Method Each case should clearly explain how the child investigates the mystery, which may include: Solving an integrated puzzle Eliminating suspects based on clues Matching evidence to characters Reasoning through statements or timelines ** Interactive Elements Each case must include opportunities for children to: Write notes Circle or cross out options Draw lines or arrows Complete tables, checklists, or grids **Solution & Explanation Clear and unambiguous final answer Short explanation showing how the clues lead to the solution **Puzzle & Content Guidelines Target age: 7–9 years All content must be 100% original Black-and-white interior only No colour-dependent logic Avoid overused activity book formats such as: Word searches; Simple crosswords; Random mazes; Standalone cryptograms Puzzles or investigative methods should always feel meaningful to the story. ** Themes Cases should be relatable and suitable for school holidays, such as: School and clubs Family and friends Pets and animals Sports and hobbies Travel and days out Seasonal and holiday situations **Design & Illustration Design/illustration skills are not required as a separate designer may be hired, however would be a bonus if the puzzles could also be illustrated. ** Ideal Freelancer would have: Experience writing for children (especially ages 7–9) Experience with activity books, puzzle books, or educational content Strong storytelling and logical thinking skills Clear, friendly writing style To Apply, Please Include A brief description of your relevant experience Examples of previous children’s work (if available) A short sample detective mystery idea I AM OK WITH THE USE OF AI TO HELP WITH THIS PROJECT BUT PLEASE DO NOT JUST GIVE A CHAT GPT SAMPLE ABOUT A MISSING LUNCH BOX OR MISSING LIBRARY BOOK. The mysteries while aimed at kids age 7-9 shouldn't be too simplistic. They need to use their logic skills to solve. They shouldn't be able to solve the mystery in 5 mins. This is a school holidays activity book that should keep them occupied.

Magento 2 – Fix Ryft Payment Webhooks (Lightweight PHP)
I am running a Magento 2 multi-store environment with a Ryft payment gateway already integrated. The majority of the system is in place, but I need an experienced Magento 2 / payment gateway developer to audit, verify, and correctly finalise the Ryft webhook implementation. This is a senior-level technical task focused on correctness, performance, and reliability. Critical requirement (please read carefully) The Ryft webhook must be handled using a lightweight standalone PHP endpoint. ❌ NOT using Magento bootstrap (app/bootstrap.php) ❌ NOT loading the Magento framework just to receive webhooks ❌ NOT relying on heavy Apache or Magento routing The webhook should be received in plain PHP, validated, deduplicated, and only then pass confirmed data into Magento in a controlled way. The goal is minimal server load, high reliability, and zero duplicate processing. Current situation Magento 2 multi-store setup (many stores, shared codebase) Ryft payments are mostly working Webhooks are unreliable or not firing consistently Some order duplication and inconsistent order state updates Current implementation may be too heavy and loading Magento unnecessarily What I need you to do Review the existing Ryft payment and webhook configuration Verify webhook events are correctly received (eg captured, failed, refunded) Implement or correct a lightweight PHP webhook endpoint Validate webhook signatures securely Ensure idempotent processing (no duplicate order updates if Ryft retries) Ensure correct Magento order state updates once events are confirmed Confirm the final setup is production-safe and correctly architected What I am NOT looking for A full Magento rewrite Magento observers handling webhook ingestion Any solution that loads the Magento framework to receive webhooks Required experience Magento 2 (checkout flow, order states, payment modules) Payment gateway integrations Webhooks, retries, signatures, and idempotency Clean, efficient, production-grade PHP Budget This is a senior task. Fixed budget up to £750, depending on approach and experience. To apply, please answer BOTH questions below: Why is it bad practice to load Magento’s bootstrap when receiving payment webhooks, and what impact does this have on PHP-FPM and server load? How would you design webhook processing to prevent duplicate order updates if Ryft sends the same event more than once? Applications that do not answer both questions will not be considered.
