Traveling Sales Representative

LazerEdge | Mount Airy, NC
Regional Travel | Event-Based Compensation

LazerEdge is looking for up to two dependable, energetic Traveling Event Sales Associates to help operate our growing schedule of festivals, state fairs, holiday shows, and other events throughout North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, Georgia, Tennessee, and surrounding areas.

LazerEdge is a Mount Airy-based manufacturer of American-made wood décor and gifts. Our Events Team travels throughout the region, bringing our products directly to thousands of customers each year.

This is a unique opportunity for someone who enjoys traveling, meeting people, selling, and working independently as part of a small team.

What You'll Do

Our events are typically operated by a two-person team responsible for executing the event from beginning to end.

Responsibilities include:

• Travel to festivals, fairs, holiday shows, and other events.
• Help transport our booth and inventory using a 20' box truck or trailer.
• Set up and tear down LazerEdge's 10' x 20' retail booth.
• Load, unload, organize, and maintain event inventory.
• Actively engage customers and drive sales.
• Learn LazerEdge's products and confidently explain available options.
• Provide excellent customer service throughout the event.
• Process purchases using Square POS.
• Maintain an organized, attractive, and fully stocked booth.
• Follow LazerEdge's barcode and inventory-control procedures.
• Communicate effectively with your event partner and LazerEdge leadership.
• Professionally represent LazerEdge with customers, event organizers, and other vendors.

Event Schedule

Most events are approximately three days, typically Friday through Sunday. Some are single-day events, while larger fairs and holiday shows may operate for a week or longer.

Event days can be long. Team members should be prepared to work approximately 8-12 hours per event day and remain engaged with customers throughout the day.

Setup, teardown, and travel days may also be required depending on the event.

Because our booth and inventory travel from our Mount Airy facility in an 20' box truck or trailer, experience confidently driving a box truck, large trailer, RV, or similar vehicle is strongly preferred.

Apply Individually or Together

LazerEdge needs two people to operate each event.

You may apply individually, and we can pair you with another LazerEdge team member, or you may apply alongside a friend, partner, or spouse who is also interested in the opportunity.

We are currently looking to add up to two people to our Events Team.

Compensation

This position is compensated based on the type of event day worked, rather than a traditional Monday-Friday schedule.

Compensation may include:

• Event/Selling Day Pay
• Travel, Setup & Teardown Day Pay
• Approved lodging while traveling
• Meal reimbursement or per diem while traveling
• Additional sales opportunities described below

Specific event schedules and compensation are communicated before accepting an event assignment.

Additional Independent Sales Opportunity

For individuals interested in earning additional income beyond scheduled events, LazerEdge may also offer a separate opportunity to work as an independent Sales Representative on a commission basis.

This provides an opportunity to develop business outside of events by pursuing potential wholesale, custom, commercial, or other qualified LazerEdge customers.

Sales Representative compensation is commission-based and governed by a separate independent contractor agreement.

Participation in independent sales is not required to work LazerEdge events.

What We're Looking For

The right person for this opportunity is:

• Dependable and accountable
• Friendly, energetic, and comfortable talking with customers
• Comfortable actively approaching customers and selling
• Able to maintain a positive attitude during long event days
• Comfortable traveling and spending nights away from home
• Available for weekends and nontraditional schedules
• Comfortable working closely with one other team member
• Organized and responsible with inventory, money, and company property
• Able to solve problems independently while traveling
• Comfortable receiving feedback and adapting quickly
• Professional when representing LazerEdge
• Comfortable using POS and inventory technology
• Able to assist with the physical demands of event setup and teardown

Previous experience in sales, events, retail, trade shows, festivals, or box-truck driving is helpful, but we're willing to train the right person.
