Territory Sales Manager- Missouri

Diversified Botanics operates at the intersection of wellness, manufacturing discipline, and operational rigor. We build botanical wellness products that hold up under scrutiny—not just speed. Our portfolio includes category-leading brands such as MIT45, along with emerging products like Uprising and Kava , all produced under rigorous GMP and NSF-certified standards.

Our teams move with urgency, but never without evidence, accountability, and respect for the work. This is a place for people who take pride in precision, understand the cost of shortcuts, and show up ready to contribute to a team that runs tight by design.

Note to Recruitment Agencies

Diversified Botanics does not engage external recruiting agencies. All candidates must apply directly.

You own a single state. Your job is to get Diversified Botanics products onto the shelves of convenience stores across your territory and keep them selling.

This is a DSD-style field sales role. You are in the car. You are walking into c-stores. You are on the phone 50 times a day. You are building relationships with store buyers, category managers, and the distributors who supply them. You are not behind a desk.

Your territory has a defined addressable market — a real number of c-stores, a realistic penetration target, and a weekly velocity benchmark per door. That math produces your quota. You are accountable to hitting it.

The phone comes first. Emails go out before 9 AM so every call has a reason to connect. Fifty outbound touches per day — calls, texts, emails, and in-person visits — is the floor, not the goal. That's roughly 3 hours of call time. The rest of the day is field visits, follow-ups, and pipeline management.

You are selling into convenience stores. Your buyers are c-store owners, operators, and category managers. You need to understand how their business works — margin, category performance, shelf velocity, reorder cycles. You are not leading with product. You are leading with economics: how many dollars per door per day can this category generate for them.

You are working distributors. Your sell-in only matters if it drives sell-through. You are holding distributor partners accountable to door count targets and velocity benchmarks — not just taking orders.

You are opening new accounts every month. The minimum is 20 new c-store accounts per month. Existing accounts need consistent touchpoints, structured follow-through, and an 80% reorder rate within 60 days of opening.

You are managing a pipeline. CRM is updated daily. Every open quote gets a follow-up within 24 hours. Pipeline coverage stays at 3x your monthly quota at all times. Below 3x is a yellow flag. Below 2x is a red flag.

Your first 90 days are onboarding, training, and pipeline build. No revenue is expected in that window. Starting in month 4, quota phases in — 25%, 50%, 75% — before hitting 100% in month 7. You will have time to learn the territory. You will not have time to coast.

People with backgrounds in car sales, wireless/cell phone retail, DSD, or route-based sales move fast in this role. You already know what high-volume outbound looks like. You already know how to build a book from scratch while servicing what you've opened.

Convenience store channel experience is a plus. Distributor management experience is a plus. The non-negotiable is the work ethic and the activity standard — 50 touches a day, every day, logged.

If your best sales environments have been low-volume, relationship-only roles with minimal cold outreach — this role will be a hard adjustment. The activity floor is real and it is tracked daily. There is no version of this territory that gets built without consistent prospecting.

• 5 years of outside B2B sales — DSD, route sales, car, wireless, or similar high-activity environments strongly preferred

• Demonstrated ability to open new accounts while retaining and growing an existing book

• Comfort with 50 daily outbound touches alongside consistent field activity

• Experience managing distributor or broker relationships preferred

• C-store or independent retail channel experience preferred

• Strong CRM discipline and forecasting accuracy

• Ability to operate autonomously with clear performance accountability

You own a state. You have a quota, a lead system, a CRM, and daily activity standards. The company provides the infrastructure. You provide the output. If you can run 50 touches a day, get in front of c-store buyers, build distributor accountability, and drive sell-through — this is a significant commercial opportunity with real earning potential.

If you need to be managed into daily activity, this is not the right seat.
