If you’re looking for a low-responsibility role where you can simply clock in and out, this probably won’t feel like the right fit.
What this role actually looks like:
As our Full-Time Sales Consultant, you’ll be responsible for booking sessions, selling portraits and products, and delivering an exceptional client experience. Your performance will be measured through lead conversion, average sale, completed ordering appointments, and consistent follow-up.
This is an in-person role working directly with clients. Professionalism, reliability, confidence, organization, strong communication skills, and emotional intelligence are non-negotiable.
- Minimum of 40 hours per week
- Must be available weekdays, evenings, and weekends
Your primary responsibilities will focus on:
- Converting new inquiries into booked sessions through phone consultations
- Following up consistently with leads and asking for the booking
- Leading in-person ordering appointments and asking for the purchase
- Helping clients narrow their image selections and recommending products that fit their needs
- Presenting pricing confidently and responding to questions and objections
- Recognizing opportunities to recommend additional images, albums, and wall art
- Working toward established booking and sales goals
- Documenting client details, commitments, and follow-up needs
- Creating a polished, organized client experience from first contact through the completed order
Because we are a small team, there will also be times where you’ll step in and support in other areas of the business as needed.
No two days look exactly the same.
Now the good stuff:
- You’ll work with a supportive, driven team that genuinely enjoys being here
- The work is meaningful, creative, and rewarding
- You’ll see the direct results of your work every single week
- There is real room to grow as the business grows
- Leadership opportunities may grow with the role over time
- You’ll be trusted to take ownership instead of being micromanaged
- No two clients, sessions, or stories are ever the same
We’re looking for someone who wants this to feel like their work home, not just another job.
This role is perfect for someone who:
- Is confident without being arrogant
- Is warm without being passive
- Communicates professionally and naturally
- Is comfortable discussing pricing, addressing hesitation, and directly asking clients to book or purchase
- Handles pressure well
- Takes initiative
- Learns quickly
- Brings positive energy into a room
We’ll train you on our products, systems, workflows, and sales process. We cannot teach energy, ownership, confidence, work ethic, or positive attitude toward selling.
