We're looking for an outgoing, confident Event Sales Lead who knows how to work a crowd and turn conversations into qualified in-home appointments.
We build walk-in showers. At home shows, fairs and festivals, your job is not to sit behind a booth and wait for people to approach you.
You'll engage people, create natural conversations, identify homeowners with a real bathroom project and schedule qualified appointments for our sales team.
If you can read a room, make strangers comfortable and confidently ask for the appointment, you may be a great fit.What You'll Do
  • Approach and engage people at home shows, fairs and festivals
  • Create energy and keep the booth inviting
  • Work the crowd instead of waiting for people to come to you

  • Set qualified in-home appointments
  • Manage multiple conversations without becoming pushy or scripted
  • Keep lead information accurate
  • Help with booth setup and teardown

The right person can grow into:
  • Event team leader
  • Recruiter/trainer for additional demonstrators
  • Event calendar and show manager
  • Responsibility for event performance and profitability
  • Eventually, ownership of the entire event marketing channel

Our goal is to grow the right person into the department leader.
Someone who consistently produces appointments, drives sales and builds a successful team can grow this into a six-figure opportunity.Schedule
Most events are on weekends, but occasional weekday availability is required.
  • Home & remodeling shows: Friday-Sunday
  • Senior/community fairs: usually Wednesday or Thursday, 4-6 hours
  • Festivals/street fairs: usually Saturday, sometimes Saturday-Sunday

The role begins with approximately four events in September and October and can expand as our calendar grows.What We're Looking For
You may be a strong fit if you:
  • Are outgoing, confident and comfortable approaching strangers
  • Know how to work a room and read body language
  • Can create energy without being pushy
  • Can manage several conversations at once
  • Are comfortable asking for an appointment
  • Have experience in sales, hospitality, restaurants, retail, events, fundraising or home improvement
  • Like being measured on results
  • Are dependable and available for weekend work
  • Can occasionally work weekday daytime events
Requirements
  • Valid driver's license
  • Reliable transportation
  • Ability to travel throughout Greater Seattle and the Puget Sound area
  • Ability to stand for extended periods
  • Ability to lift up to 50 pounds
  • Background and driving record check
This Role Is Not For You If...
You prefer to sit behind a booth, wait for customers to approach you, avoid performance-based compensation or are uncomfortable approaching strangers.
We're looking for someone who can work a room, create trust, produce appointments and grow with the company.
If that sounds like you, apply today.
