  • Build and maintain strong relationships with property managers, facility managers, general contractors, owners, developers, and other commercial decision-makers
  • Identify upcoming projects and get Top Shelf involved early in the process
  • Conduct sales calls, site visits, estimates, and presentations
  • Prepare and present professional proposals
  • Follow up consistently and close opportunities
  • Maintain long-term customer relationships and generate repeat business
  • Track opportunities, bids, follow-ups, and sales activity
  • Work closely with production and management to ensure a smooth transition from sale to project completion
  • Represent the Top Shelf brand professionally in the marketplace
  • Meet or exceed monthly and annual sales goals

What We’re Looking For

Required:

  • Proven experience selling industrial and/or commercial painting or construction services
  • Existing book of business and established commercial relationships
  • Demonstrated ability to generate your own leads and opportunities
  • Strong closing and negotiation skills
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building abilities
  • Professional appearance and demeanor
  • Highly motivated and self-directed
  • Strong organizational and follow-up skills

Compensation

Commission Only – 10% Commission

This is a commission-only opportunity designed for an experienced sales professional who already has an established book of business and can generate their own opportunities with little or no sales support from Top Shelf.

Additional Benefits:

  • Cell phone reimbursement
  • Gas allowance
  • Unlimited earning potential based on sales performance

The more you sell, the more you make.

Why Top Shelf?

At Top Shelf Painting & Improvement Specialists, we're building a company around quality, professionalism, accountability, and long-term relationships.

We aren't looking for someone who needs to be handed leads every day. We're looking for a hunter who already has relationships, understands the commercial market, and knows how to turn those relationships into profitable business.

If you have an established book of business and are confident in your ability to produce, we want to talk to you.

Ideal Candidate

The ideal candidate is someone who can walk into a commercial property, facility, general contractor's office, or job site and already know who the decision-makers are, what they need, and how to earn their business.

If you need leads handed to you, this isn't the position for you.
If you have relationships and know how to turn them into revenue, this could be a great opportunity.

Apply today and tell us about your current book of business, commercial experience, and sales results.

Pay: $95,000.00 - $268,816.80 per year
