Tired of Making Minimum Wage? Learn Sales.
Appointment Setter / Roofing Canvasser$50 Per Qualified Appointment | Paid Weekly | No Experience Required
Are you tired of waiting tables?
Tired of making $7.25, $10, or $12 an hour and wondering how you’re ever supposed to get ahead?
Tired of hearing that there are “no real opportunities” in the Rio Grande Valley?
Maybe it’s time to learn a skill that can actually change what you’re capable of earning.
At Trace Roofing & Construction, we’re looking for a few hungry people who want more than another hourly job.
This is not a forever appointment-setter position.
This is the starting line of a sales career.
We’ll teach you how to approach homeowners, start conversations, recognize opportunities, set appointments, use our systems, and eventually learn how professional roofing sales works from beginning to end.
You don’t need roofing experience.
You don’t need a college degree.
You don’t need to know anything about insurance claims.
You don’t even need to know how to sell a roof yet.
We’ll teach you.
What we can’t teach is hunger.
Here’s the Deal
Your starting job is simple:
We identify neighborhoods where there is a legitimate roofing opportunity.
We give you the territory.
We give you the marketing material.
We give you the basic script.
We teach you what to look for.
Then you go talk to homeowners.
When you generate a real, confirmed roof inspection appointment, we pay you:
$50 PER QUALIFIED APPOINTMENT
And we pay every Friday.
Set 5 qualified appointments?
$250.
Set 10?
$500.
Set 20?
$1,000.
Your effort matters here.
You’re not waiting for somebody to decide whether you deserve a 25-cent raise next year.
But the $50 Appointment Isn’t the Real Opportunity
This position is designed to train future sales representatives.
Think of it as paid training into a new profession.
You start by learning how to create the opportunity.
Then, if you prove yourself, we’ll start teaching you how to:
- Inspect roofs
- Understand roofing systems
- Work insurance claims
- Present estimates
- Handle objections
- Present contracts
- Close deals
- Manage customers
- Generate referrals
- Build a real sales pipeline
Our full Outside Sales Representatives earn 10% commission on the jobs they sell.
Our standard expectation for an established salesperson is $1,000,000 in annual sales.
That’s approximately:
$100,000 A YEAR IN COMMISSIONS
And that’s the target — not the ceiling.
So no, we’re not looking for someone whose lifelong dream is to knock doors.
We’re looking for somebody who is willing to start there so they can learn how to sell.
Who Should Apply?
This might be for you if you’re currently:
Waiting tables.
Bartending.
Working retail.
Working fast food.
Working construction labor.
Working at a warehouse.
Working somewhere you’re capped at $10–$15 an hour.
Or simply working a job where you’ve realized:
“I cannot build the life I want making this amount of money.”
We don’t care if you’ve never worked in roofing.
If you’re confident, coachable, competitive, willing to work, and comfortable talking to strangers, we want to talk to you.
A Fair Warning
This isn’t easy money.
You’re going to walk.
You’re going to sweat.
You’re going to knock doors.
You’re going to hear “no.”
Sometimes you’re going to hear “no” a lot.
Welcome to sales.
But you’re also going to learn something most hourly jobs will never teach you:
How to create income instead of waiting for someone to give you a paycheck.
That skill can change the trajectory of your life.
What Counts as a Qualified Appointment?
We’re not paying for random phone numbers.
A qualified appointment means:
- You’ve spoken with the homeowner or decision-maker
- The property is inside one of our approved target areas
- There is a legitimate opportunity for a roof inspection
- The homeowner agrees to an inspection
- An actual date and time are scheduled
- Their information is entered correctly
- The appointment is confirmed
Once it’s confirmed:
You earned your $50.
What We Provide
We aren’t throwing you into a neighborhood with a clipboard and saying, “Good luck.”
We provide:
- Training
- Proven talking points and scripts
- Marketing materials
- Targeted neighborhoods
- Guidance from experienced roofing salespeople
- CRM and technology
- Ongoing coaching
- A pathway into full roofing sales
You focus on learning how to create opportunities.
Our experienced salespeople handle the inspection, estimate, contract, and closing while you’re learning.
