Ascension Automotive is a premium automotive appearance and protection studio in Milford. We install paint protection film, ceramic coating, window tint, detailing and paint correction, and we have been doing it since 2022.
We have over 590 five-star Google reviews and we are the fastest growing auto restyling shop in Michigan. We got here by doing the work properly and taking care of our clients.
We are hiring one full-time Sales Representative. This is not a floor job and it is not cold calling. We are looking for someone who wants to help take this company to the next level, not someone looking for a temporary seat.
THE MONEY
$3,000 per month base salary, plus uncapped commission on a rising scale. Each band pays its own rate, so your rate climbs as you produce:
- On the first $40,000 you collect in a month: 5.0%
- On the next $30,000: 6.5%
- On the next $30,000: 8.0%
- On everything above $100,000: 10.0%
Commission is paid monthly, on the first payroll of the following month.
What that means in practice. Your first couple of months while you train and ramp will be lean, around $4,250 to $5,000 a month. Once you are running the board, $80,000 collected in a month pays you $7,750, which annualises to $93,000. A strong month at $110,000 collected pays $10,350. We would rather tell you that now than have you find it out in October.
SCHEDULE
- Monday to Friday, with the occasional Saturday
- 8:00 AM to 4:00 PM traditionally
- Minimum 40 hours per week
- This is a hybrid role with the primary hours spent inside the shop
WHAT YOU WOULD ACTUALLY DO
We get around 300 inbound leads a month from people who already want what we sell. Your job is to get to them fast, find out what the vehicle actually needs, prescribe the right package and close it.
Tickets run from $225 for a basic tint up to about $11,000 for a full body paint protection film job.
A normal day is a morning block on new leads, quotes out before lunch, an afternoon on the follow-up pipeline, time on the floor with walk-ins, and a block on past customers. You will run consultations in the studio with the vehicle in front of you, which is the best closing tool we have.
WHO THIS IS FOR
You will do well here if you have sold on commission before and liked it. We have had the most success talking to people from dealership finance and insurance desks, dealership sales floors, and in-home sales like roofing, solar, windows or HVAC.
You should be comfortable asking a direct question and then being quiet while someone thinks.
WHO THIS IS NOT FOR
- Someone driven to sell the highest possible ticket. We are a consultative company. We are not heavy on pushing a sale just to get the sale, and prescribing something a customer does not need is the fastest way to not fit here.
- Someone who cannot actively follow the system we have in place. We have a documented process and it works. If your instinct is to freelance around it, this will frustrate both of us.
- Someone whose answer to a price objection is a discount. We do not discount. If a customer pushes on price we change the scope, not the number.
- Someone looking to work from home. The primary hours are in the shop.
WHAT WE WILL NEED FROM YOU
- Minimum 1 year in sales
- Valid driver licence, because you will move customer vehicles on our lot
- Reliable transport to Milford
- Clean record
Ideally, we are looking for someone familiar with vehicles. You do not need to be a technician, but caring / knowing about cars makes this job significantly easier and a lot more enjoyable.
WHAT YOU GET FROM US
- A real onboarding and training program. We built a full internal training system covering the company, every service we sell, the sales process, tonality, and objection handling. You work through it before you are handed live customers, so you are not thrown at the phones on day one.
- Direct coaching from the owner, weekly. This is the part most sales jobs promise and almost none deliver. You will get recorded call reviews, real feedback and a standing one-to-one.
- Warm inbound leads, not a phone book.
- A product with real proof behind it, and a customer base that already likes us.
- Room to grow with the company. Your commission rate climbs as you produce, and we are growing fast enough that the person who takes this seat and runs with it will have a lot more available to them in a year.
How hiring works
- Apply here. If it looks like a fit we will have a short phone call, and from there a structured in-person interview at the shop so you can see the space and the work.
Pay: $65,000.00 - $110,000.00 per year
