Are you a highly driven sales professional with a strong understanding of arboriculture?
Do you get energized by chasing targets, working in a fast paced environment, and seeing your effort directly impact your income and the success of the company?
You are relentlessly goal oriented, organized, and client focused. You take pride in your work and understand that sales are the lifeblood of a growing business. Door knocking and calling leads doesn’t bother you because you know your consistency and follow through are what keep the company moving forward. You pay close attention to details and confidently manage your own schedule, clients, and lead list. You communicate clearly and follow through every time because it drives you crazy when things fall through the cracks. You are willing to go the extra mile and have no problem working the evenings and weekends if it means closing deals.
