Outside Sales Representative

ALTA MARKETING
Ames, IA Temporary | Intern
POSTED ON 12/10/2025
AVAILABLE BEFORE 4/8/2026

This isn’t a typical internship or a résumé checkbox.
It’s a real-world business experience built for ambitious students who want to grow faster than their peers and get paid like it.

As a Summer Sales Representative, you’ll work with a competitive team of student leaders, meeting homeowners face-to-face in assigned neighborhoods and helping them protect their homes with premium pest-control services. Yes — it’s door-to-door. And that’s exactly why the income and growth are on another level.

Most students choose “easy” internships. We choose the one that actually pays and builds leaders.

Earnings & Benefits

  • Unlimited commission potential
  • Typical reps earn $30,000–$40,000 in one summer
  • Top performers regularly exceed $125,000
  • Housing provided (Housing bonus available — ask during interview)
  • Daily coaching from 7-figure sales leaders
  • Rapid advancement opportunities for those who want to lead teams
  • A résumé experience that stands out in any industry
  • Bonuses, incentives, competitions & company trips

Why Us?

Door-to-door isn’t “lame” — it’s rare.
And rare traits create rare opportunities to make rare money:

  • You learn how to communicate, persuade, and lead in real life, not just online
  • You build resilience and confidence that transfers into every career field
  • You get paid based on performance, not hours
  • You can move up fast—many top managers in the industry started exactly here
  • You gain experience most students never get (and employers notice instantly)

Most people aren’t willing to do this.
That’s exactly why those who are willing earn more, grow faster, and stand out.

What You’ll Learn

  • High-level influence & negotiation
  • Door-to-door lead generation & territory management
  • Real business operations and closing strategies
  • Discipline, consistency, and high-performance habits
  • How to recruit, train & lead your own team (for those who advance)

Ideal Candidates

We look for drive, not experience.
This role is perfect for students who are:

  • Competitive and goal-oriented
  • Ambitious and hungry to grow
  • Comfortable talking to people face-to-face
  • Excited about earning real money, not hourly wages
  • Open to relocating for a summer experience that changes their trajectory
  • Coachable and eager to learn from top performers

If you want an internship that pays like a full-time job in 1/4 of the time and grows you like a startup founder — you’ll thrive here.

If you want a summer that transforms your income, confidence, and career, this is it.

Apply now and step into a role built for people who want more.
