As a construction sales representative, your job is to help buy and sell the equipment and materials needed for construction. In this role, you may call a customer to follow up on inquiries, act as the rep for your company when pursuing a lead, make a sales pitch to a potential customer, and provide feedback to your employer about the success rate of each marketing method. Some construction sales representatives work on commission, but many have a salary instead. This job often requires traveling to trade shows, demonstrating products to customers, and prospecting for new customers. Most construction sales representatives work closely with other marketers to coordinate advertising strategies.
