Job Description
WOW CUSTOMERS & ROCK THE SALES GAME: TEES, HATS, STICKERS, SOCKS
JOIN US IN THE MEMORY-MAKING BUSINESS
THE OPPORTUNITY: We kicked things off in 1+84, taking care of the apparel needs for resorts around our hometown of Detroit Lakes, Minnesota. Fast forward to today, and our products are hanging in shops from sea to shining sea. With a strong presence in the resort apparel market, our eye-catching designs, amazing art, and obsession with WOWing Our Customers (one of our Core Values) set us apart. We're not your typical garment company, and we're definitely not looking for your typical sales rep. We need someone ready to bring their A-game, sell cool stuff, and have a blast doing it!
As an Independent Sales Rep, you'll team up with our National Sales Managers to drive business growth and create some serious waves in the industry. Your mission? Build and maintain strong relationships with existing and potential customers, expand our customer base, and crush those sales goals. Your passion for our products and standout sales skills will be key to stitching together our continued success. Our Resort lines- including EMI | TGT, Blue 84, and Yesterdays-each offer unique opportunities for you to represent!
This isn't your average sales gig. You'll be selling t-shirts, sure, but also hats, stickers, socks, and more! We're in the memory-making business, and with our diverse brands, there's always something new and exciting to dive into. If you're ready for a fun challenge that's anything but ordinary, let's chat and get this adventure started!
TERRITORY: Alabama. Seriously, if you live anywhere in Alabama & this opportunity speaks to you, let's talk.
