Job Description

Position Overview

Join the Entry‑Level Sales Apprenticeship (Leadership Track) in Jacksonville at Forge Marketing. This opportunity is designed for early‑career individuals who want a long‑term sales career rather than just a summer job. The role starts with an intensive Summer 2026 ramp—6 days a week, in‑person, door‑to‑door work—which, if successful and enjoyable, transitions into a quota‑carrying sales role with a clear leadership track.

Key Responsibilities

  • Go door‑to‑door in assigned neighborhoods to introduce homeowners to pest control services.
  • Use a proven script to present, handle objections, and close new customers.
  • Work 6 days per week during the summer ramp (typically 8‑10 hours per day), mostly on your feet and outdoors.
  • Attend daily morning training sessions and role‑plays with your team lead.
  • After the ramp, manage your own territory as an ongoing rep by meeting weekly and monthly sales quotas.
  • Track your activity and results (doors, conversations, closes, revenue, and commissions).

Required Qualifications

  • At least 18 years old by May 1 and legally authorized to work in the U.S.
  • Available full‑time for the Summer 2026 ramp (approximately May–August, 6 days per week).
  • Willing to relocate and live in shared housing with teammates during the ramp period.
  • Comfortable with commission‑only pay, weekly/monthly sales quotas, and long days outdoors.
  • Demonstrate reliability, coachability, and the perseverance needed to sustain the entire ramp period.
