  • Confidence in selling, handling objections, and closing deals
  • Motivation to hit and exceed sales goals (uncapped earning potential)
  • Excellent communication and customer service skills
  • Accuracy and accountability with POS transactions
  • Attention to detail in guest interactions and boarding processes
  • Ability to thrive in fast-paced, high-traffic environments

  • Comfortable in high-traffic, guest-facing environments
  • Ability to stand for extended periods and lift light supplies

Compensation & Benefits

  • $18/hour base pay + 3% uncapped commission on all sales
