About the Role
Are you a natural people person? Do you thrive on conversation, connection, and being on the move—not stuck behind a desk or counter all day?
Following the massive recent storm activity across Northern Illinois and Central/Southern Wisconsin, local homeowners need our help more than ever. We are rapidly expanding our team to meet this unprecedented demand for exterior repairs and storm restoration. If you have a background in hospitality (server, bartender), automotive sales, or retail, you already possess the empathetic communication skills needed to excel in this market!
Why Our Program is Different
We know that transitioning to a new industry can be intimidating. While most roofing companies force you into a stressful "commission-only" setup, Pink Roofing does things differently. Our Exteriors Sales Career Program gives you a safety net: a steady, reliable base salary, full benefits, and a dedicated training period to ensure your long-term success.
What We Offer
- Steady Financial Foundation: A guaranteed yearly salary of $45,000–$60,000, ensuring peace of mind while you learn the industry.
- Uncapped Tiered Commission: Earn more as you grow! Our tiered structure ranges from 2% to 5% based on your volume, putting six-figure potential easily within reach.
- Company Vehicle: A dedicated company truck is made available to you after 90 days on the team.
- Comprehensive Benefits: Full access to Health, Vision, Dental, and Life Insurance after 90 days.
- Future Security: 401(k) retirement plan eligibility after 1 year of service.
- Extensive Training: A comprehensive program diving deep into the psychology of sales, storm damage metrics, and industry technicals. We don't just hand you a script; we build your career.
Key Responsibilities
- Community Engagement: Proactively connect with homeowners in storm-impacted neighborhoods through door-to-door canvassing and territory management.
- On-Site Inspections: Perform thorough on-roof and exterior inspections of roofing, siding, and gutters to document storm and hail damage.
- Education & Consultation: Clearly explain inspection findings, guide homeowners through solutions, and meet with insurance adjusters to verify property damage.
- Closing & Documentation: Manage customer pipelines smoothly within our CRM software from initial knock to finalized contract.
Schedule & Flexibility
As an Outside Sales Representative, you will enjoy the schedule autonomy and flexibility required to manage your own territory. To achieve maximum success and align with peak windows of homeowner availability, our top earners focus their efforts during prime industry sales windows (typically Monday through Friday afternoons/evenings and Saturdays). (Note: Fieldwork is highly dependent on weather variability—safety is our #1 priority, and you will never go on a roof if conditions are unsafe!)
Qualifications
- Sales Acumen & Drive: A proven ability to build rapport quickly, listen actively, and close deals effectively.
- Strong Communication: Empathetic, trustworthy personality capable of navigating stressful situations for storm-impacted homeowners.
- Physical Stamina: Comfortable walking neighborhoods, working outdoors, and safely climbing ladders to perform roof inspections.
- Reliable Background: A valid driver's license and a clean driving record (required for company truck eligibility).
- Preferred Experience: No previous roofing experience is required! If you have worked as a server, bartender, barista, or in hospitality/retail, we want to talk to you!
