We are hiring an experienced Outside Sales Representative to generate and close residential and small commercial contractor-service projects throughout the Paso Robles area.
We are specifically looking for a proven hunter who can create opportunities through door knocking, cold outreach, referrals, networking, and local relationship building. This is not an appointment-setting or order-taking role. The right candidate must be comfortable building their own pipeline and closing business without relying only on company-provided leads.
The ideal candidate has sold high-value services such as solar, roofing, HVAC, home improvement, construction, or similar contractor-based solutions. You must be confident meeting customers at their homes or project sites, presenting recommendations, handling objections, explaining pricing or financing options, and asking for the sale.
