Inside & Outside Sales Reps — Commission-Only Marketing Sales ($50K–$250K Y1) — Houston / Remote
Job Description
ABOUT ZEM SOCIAL
ZEM Social is a Houston marketing agency helping small businesses grow their online presence — content creation, social media management, and reputation management. We create the content, run the platforms, and handle the reviews so owners can focus on their business. We're hiring both inside and outside sales representatives to bring in new clients across every industry.
THE OPPORTUNITY
We sell marketing packages that run roughly $3,800 to $9,600+ per month per client on 6- and 12-month agreements. You earn 10% of every monthly retainer for the full life of the contract — so every deal you close pays you every month, not just once. Whether you'd rather sell from the phone or from the field, you pick your market and own your book.
WHY ZEM SOCIAL
- Uncapped, always. No ceiling and no territory cap on your income. The only limit is how hard you sell.
- Transparent, no games. Clear pricing, a clear 10% on every dollar collected, and open books on your own deals. You always know exactly what you'll be paid and when — no shifting quotas, no mystery deductions.
- Recurring income. Every client you close pays you every month for the life of their contract, including renewals. Build the book once and it keeps paying.
- Paid on real money. Commission follows cash — when the client pays, you get paid. No chasing invoiced numbers that never collect.
- A product that sells itself. We deliver two to four times the content of a typical Houston agency at a comparable price. You're selling an obvious yes.
- We make you look good. Our creative team delivers so well clients renew — and your commissions renew with them. Close this week, we're shooting within two weeks.
TWO WAYS TO SELL — PICK YOUR LANE (OR DO BOTH)
Inside Sales Representative (Phone / Video · Remote-Friendly)
- What you do. Work leads and prospects by phone, video, email, and DM. Book discovery calls and close remotely.
- Where. Run high volume from anywhere — you can work your local market or a broader territory entirely by phone/video.
- Best fit. Best for closers who love the dials, the follow-up game, and stacking conversations.
Outside Sales Representative (Field · Houston Territory)
- What you do. Walk into local businesses, meet owners face-to-face, work referrals and events, and close in person.
- Where. Own a Houston-area territory. Boots on the ground — you build relationships block by block.
- Best fit. Best for closers who win in the room and love the handshake close.
Both roles hand signed clients to our creative team — you bring them in, we deliver. You don't manage accounts.
COMPENSATION
10% of every monthly retainer, for the full life of the contract, paid monthly and tied to client payment. Uncapped.
- Example: One Full Build client ($5,828/mo) on a 12-month agreement = $583/month and about $6,994 to you over the year.
- Example: One Premium client ($9,636/mo) on a 12-month agreement = $964/month and about $11,563 to you over the year.
- Y1: Realistic Y1 range: $50,000–$250,000 based on activity, close rate, and contract mix. Top performers exceed this.
WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR
- You've closed before — ideally in B2B services, media, ads, or software. For outside sales, in-person/field experience is a plus; for inside sales, strong phone and follow-up skills.
- Fully independent: self-directed, self-motivated, organized enough to track your own pipeline.
- Comfortable with rejection and objection-handling, and excited that commission-only means you eat what you kill.
- Inside reps can work anywhere by phone/video; outside reps live in or near Houston with reliable transportation.
WHO THIS IS NOT FOR
- People who need a base salary while they "figure it out."
- People who want to be told exactly who to call and what to say every morning.
- People who talk about selling more than they actually sell.
WHAT WE PROVIDE
- Full sales playbook, pitch scripts, pricing tiers, and qualifying questions — ready day one.
- Contracts, invoicing, fulfillment, and client management all handled by our team once you close.
- A creative team that delivers so well your clients renew — meaning recurring commissions for you.
- Fast turnaround: close this week, we're shooting content within two weeks.
