The Territory: Chicago Shores territory offers a rich and diverse landscape ripe with opportunity and challenge for a driven sales professional.

Additional Notes:
This is a true "hunter" sales role in a target-rich environment: you will have access to thousands of prime prospects and a strong foundation of active accounts, but your success will depend on your daily commitment doing the work, to prospecting & qualifying (phone calls, emails, visiting potential client), and closing new business.
We are building a championship team, every member is expected to be a self-starter, hold themselves and others accountable, and contribute positively to our culture of excellence, integrity, and continuous improvement.
You will be supported by a leadership team and business coach dedicated to your growth, but you are expected to own your results, embrace feedback, and demonstrate a relentless drive to achieve and exceed your goals.
This role is ideal for individuals who thrive in a healthy, collaborative, and externally focused competitive environment, those who are motivated by uncapped earning potential and driven to make a lasting impact through consistent, purposeful action. We seek A players who understand that true results come from hard work and smart strategies, not shortcuts or internal rivalries. The competition is out in the marketplace, not within our team; we value professionals who know how to compete and win against our competitors while supporting and collaborating with their teammates. You should be confident, tactful, and approachable, someone who brings positive energy and integrity to the team, excels under pressure, and consistently delivers results the right way
Only apply if you are ready to be challenged, measured, and rewarded based on your actions, results, and commitment to being the best, not just in words, but in performance and impact.
