Flooring Sales Consultant

About the role

Top performers in this role clear $100K+ in their first year — and there's no ceiling after that. This is a hunter's role, and the payoff matches the effort. You won't sit behind a desk waiting for foot traffic — you'll run appointments from our Mobile Flooring Showroom, build relationships with trade partners and remodelers, and grow a pipeline that pays you back year after year.

Responsibilities

• Run in-home sales consultations with pre-set, warm leads
• Present flooring options and pricing, and close on the spot
• Recommend solutions that fit the customer's style, needs, and budget
• Manage your pipeline — proposals, follow-ups, next steps
• Hand off closed projects to our install team for a seamless customer experience
• Build referral relationships with past customers, trade partners, remodelers, and local networking groups
• Prospect and develop new opportunities

What Success Looks Like

• $100K+ total earnings in year one
• 45%+ close rate on scheduled appointments
• Consistent 5-star customer reviews
• A growing referral and repeat-business pipeline that pushes earnings past $100K in the first year and beyond

Requirements

• 2+ years of outside sales, direct sales, or in-home sales experience (flooring, home improvement, or construction a plus)
• A track record of closing — comfortable asking for the sale and handling objections
• Strong communicator who builds trust fast with strangers
• Comfortable with basic math and estimating
• Self-motivated and organized enough to manage your own schedule and pipeline
• Valid driver's license

Compensation

• $50,000 forgivable draw + uncapped commission
• Realistic year-one earnings of $100K+ for top performers

Benefits

• Company van provided (mobile showroom included — no need to use your own vehicle)
• Paid training
• 2 weeks PTO + 7 paid holidays
• Flexible schedule — you control your calendar
