About Proclaim Roofing & Restorations
Proclaim Roofing & Restorations is expanding its Memphis operation and looking for competitive, coachable and self-motivated Outside Roofing Sales Representatives.
We help homeowners identify storm-related roofing damage, understand their replacement options and navigate the insurance restoration process. Our representatives receive hands-on field training, leadership support and a clear opportunity to increase their compensation based on performance.
This is not a desk job. The ideal candidate is comfortable working outdoors, knocking doors, speaking with homeowners, generating leads and following projects from the initial conversation through completion.
Compensation Plan
Paid Door-Knocking Training
New representatives receive $20 per hour during the initial two-week training period for scheduled door-knocking and field-canvassing hours only. Hourly pay does not apply to office meetings, roof inspections, customer appointments, independent prospecting or other activities unless approved in advance by management.
Training includes:
- Door-to-door prospecting
- Lead generation
- Customer introductions
- Roof-inspection basics
- Storm-damage identification
- Roofing and insurance terminology
- Customer follow-up
- Proclaim’s complete sales process
- Starting Net-Profit Share
Representatives begin at 25% of the net profit generated from each completed roofing project during their first 90 days.
Project profit is calculated after approved direct job expenses are deducted, including:
- Materials
- Labor
- Permits
- Disposal fees
- Subcontractor expenses
- Other approved job-related costs
A 10% company overhead deduction is then applied before the representative’s net-profit share is calculated.
Commission Example
If a completed project produces $10,000 in profit before the overhead deduction:
- 10% company overhead deduction: $1,000
- Remaining net profit: $9,000
- Representative’s 25% net-profit share: $2,250
There is no cap on earnings.
90-Day Performance Review
After the first 90 days, representatives may become eligible for an increased net-profit-sharing percentage based on performance.
Performance considerations include:
- Total sales production
- Door-knocking and lead-generation activity
- Closing percentage
- Customer communication
- Accuracy of paperwork and documentation
- Project follow-through
- Attendance and reliability
- Professionalism
- Compliance with company systems and procedures
Any increase is performance-based and is not automatic or guaranteed.
