Outside Sales Representative

About the role

DuraServ is looking for a resilient Outside Sales & Business Development Representative to dominate our local industrial market. This role requires a high-energy "hunter" who thrives on the adrenaline of a cold call and the satisfaction of a closed deal.

Responsibilities

• Aggressive Territory Prospecting: Conduct daily "boots on the ground" cold calling and site visits with industrial parks and distribution hubs to identify new business opportunities.
• Solution-Based Consulting: Perform detailed site assessments to diagnose equipment needs (docks, levelers, high-speed doors) and provide custom-engineered solutions.
• Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner closely with Service Technicians to turn maintenance leads and equipment failures into long-term service contracts and capital upgrades.
• Relationship Management: Build and maintain a robust pipeline by nurturing long-term relationships with facility managers, owners, and general contractors.
• Proposal & Quote Management: Utilize CRM tools to create meticulous, technically accurate proposals, ensuring all job specifications and safety requirements are met.
• Market Influence: Actively market our brand within the industrial sector, using a mix of social networking, drop-ins, and professional presentations to win market share.
• Sales Cycle Ownership: Manage the entire sales process from initial contact and discovery to contract negotiation and the final closing of the deal.
• Responsive Problem Solving: Act as the primary point of contact for clients during disruptions, providing optimistic and fast-paced solutions to keep their operations running.

Requirements

• A high school diploma or equivalent required; Associate or Bachelor's degree preferred.
• 2+ years of B2B sales experience with a proven track record in outside sales, industrial services, construction, or equipment leasing.
• Proven territory management experience — demonstrated ability to develop a cold territory into a profitable book of business.
• CRM proficiency with the ability to manage lead pipelines and technical data using modern sales tools.

Qualifications

• The Hunter Mentality: A relentless drive to find and win new business without relying on inbound leads.
• Persuasive Communication: The ability to influence decision-makers through high-energy storytelling and logical ROI presentation.

• Emotional Intelligence: A high awareness of others' emotions to navigate tough negotiations and build instant rapport.
