Do you get excited thinking about home improvement? our Sales Associates get up in the morning wondering, "Whose home can I help beautify today?" If it's time for you to do something enjoyable AND rewarding, then it's time to apply!

Description

Our sales associates guide the customer journey from inquiry to installation. We're looking for customer enthusiasts who can help home and business owners navigate a major remodeling investment. While you will certainly be expected to soak up product knowledge, your most important trait is the ability to bond with prospective customers. You're the kind of person that customers naturally like and trust.

Our best sales associates view themselves as a business within the business, leveraging their personal brands alongside our powerful national and local branding. As such, you should be equally comfortable greeting customers in the showroom and promoting our store through your professional and personal networks. While you place a premium on the customer experience, you also don't hesitate to close when the time is right. You have the conviction to do what's right for your customers by helping them acquire the flooring of their dreams! Since most of our products are installed, you should also care deeply about the beauty and quality of a job done right. Take care of our customers and you can look forward to a competitive income with regular hours and a ton of satisfaction.
