Are you up for a new challenge and looking for any or all of the following…

• An entry-level marketing or sales position?
  
• Ongoing training, support, and career coaching?
• A welcoming environment with like-minded people?
• Flexible hours in a performance-driven environment?
• Structured progression based on results, not seniority?
• More control over your career stability, safety, and/or security?
• Travel opportunities and other bonuses, rewards, and incentives?

If so, we would love to speak with you about our entry-level marketing & PR positions, our company culture, our plans for the future, and where you could potentially fit in with us!

About The Role: Each morning you’ll be learning and practicing different sales and marketing techniques before heading to an event location to represent a specific brand or cause for the day. You will be working as part of a team engaging with local consumers, distributing marketing materials, and closing sales when the product and timing are right.

Some specific responsibilities will include:

• Setting up branded displays and distributing branded marketing materials
• Approaching customers to break the ice and engage in conversation
• Qualifying potential customers before presenting a product or service
• Listening to customers’ wants, needs, and concerns to determine a solution
• Conducting market research and collecting valuable feedback from consumers
• Closing a handful of sales and processing digital sales transactions
• Performing other general sales and marketing tasks as needed

Training & Support: We provide ongoing sales training plus on-site sales support and guidance because individual results lead to overall results and we want to see everyone achieving their desired outcomes!

Career Advancement: As we grow our team and host more events, we’ll be looking for people to build and develop sales teams and manage event locations, so there may be opportunities for you to progress into other areas within your first year.

Hours & Pay: We’re primarily interested in people with full-time availability, but will consider part-time hours as long as you can work 20+ hours per week over 3-4 days Monday-Saturday. Salary is paid on a weekly basis and averages between $550 - $850 per week including base pay, commissions, and bonuses.

We also offer a range of additional benefits including:

• Cash Bonuses
• Travel Incentives
• Mentorship program
• Team sporting events
• Weekly team outings
• And more!

Requirements: No specific work experience nor degree is required, but you’ll need to be 18+ years of age and eligible to work in the USA to be considered. Sales, customer service, retail sales, hospitality, food service, or similar experience can be helpful since you’ll be working in a fast-paced environment and speaking directly with customers.

For Consideration: Please send your resume or candidate profile using the online application process. We’re actively reviewing applications as they come in, so please make sure your contact details are up-to-date and that you’re keeping an eye on your phone and email account in case we reach out to you. We look forward to speaking with you!
