  • Experience presenting options (good / better / best)
  • Strong communication, professionalism, and closing ability
  • Valid driver’s license and ability to travel to customer homes
  • No prior sewer sales experience required; we provide training

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation with high earning potential
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance
