    You have a Great ATTITUDE: enjoy learning, work best in a team, and have a strong sense of personal accountability to create high level results for yourself and your team. (We can’t train attitude so other than sign experience, you HAVE to bring this to the table)

    Enjoy PROBLEM SOLVING to meet customer's needs, and go the extra step to help them create the best version of what their solution could look like (Our largest customers are repeat, and some have been with our sales team for years so service is key to our success)

    Keen SERVICE minded and can-do attitude (Things in the sign world from customer issues, vendors, property management, and even weather regularly keep the work challenging)

    Fluent with Google's G-Suite (We use that heavily as part of our working environment so you need to be technologically proficient)

    Able to lift and carry up to 50lbs (You may need to help our with production, or delivery of graphics to the customer site, or else help customers load products into their vehicles from our store)

    Can climb ladders (You may have to conduct site surveys at the customer site and do measurements as well as potentially oversee sign installations and inspections)

    Have a valid driver's license (You will have to do site surveys at the customer site)

    Other "nice" to haves that will put you on the top of our list:

    Previous experience with CRM/Sales platforms especially Corebridge, as well as Hubspot

    Track record of sales experience with high close rates and your own sign customer list

    Combination of BOTH sign sales and sign production/installation experience
