Job Description
Position Overview
Apply for the Entry‑Level Sales Apprenticeship (Leadership Track) at Grit Marketing in Weirton – a long‑term, career‑focused opportunity, not a short‑term summer gig. This role is designed for early‑career individuals from retail, fast food, blue‑collar, customer service, or similar backgrounds who are ready to commit to a career in sales. In this position you will gain hands‑on experience through door‑to‑door selling of pest control services, with Compensation: salary based on skills and experience (contact your recruiter for details). You’ll also benefit from a clear career progression – starting as a New Rep, advancing to Senior Rep, and eventually becoming a Team Lead.
Key Responsibilities
- Go door‑to‑door in assigned neighborhoods to introduce homeowners to our pest control services.
- Use a proven script to present, handle objections, and close new customers.
- Work 6 days per week during the summer ramp (May–August) with typical 8‑10 hour days, mostly on your feet and outdoors.
- Attend daily morning training and role‑plays with your team lead.
- After the ramp, manage your own territory as an ongoing rep, meeting weekly and monthly sales quotas.
- Track activity and results, including the number of doors, conversations, closes, revenue, and commissions earned.
Required Qualifications
- Must be 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 share housing with teammates during the ramp period.
- Comfortable with commission‑only pay, meeting weekly/monthly quotas, and working long days outdoors.
- Committed to treating this as a long‑term career path beyond the summer ramp.
- Reliable, coachable, and persistent throughout the ramp period.
