Job Description
We are hiring a National Sales Manager to join our small team selling gift and novelty products to retailers nationwide. You will be the main point of contact for our 100+ independent sales representatives, and you will work directly with some of our top customers including regional and national retailers, independent gift stores and boutiques, national parks, tourist destinations, and more. You will travel to tradeshows across the USA throughout the year and represent our company and our various brands. You will report to the owner, and work closely with product development and design, customer service, and our warehouse to insure that we're offering the most on-trend product, at great prices, and servicing our wholesale customers quickly and efficiently.
Working for a small company, you will wear many hats and be expected to work across typical corporate barriers to get the job done. When business dictates an all hands on deck approach, you'll find everyone from our owner and bookkeeper to our customer service and product development manager in the warehouse packing orders or doing inventory. And when State Fair time rolls around, you'll most likely end up working some shifts at our booth, the one time each year when we switch from wholesale mode to retail mode and sell directly to consumers.
You should enjoy an entrepreneurial atmosphere, where you'll be expected to make quick and informed decisions and take reasonable risks to take advantage of sales opportunities.
You should think strategically and be a team player when needed, but also be comfortable working independently whether you're in the office or at a tradeshow representing the company.
We're looking for an ambitious person who isn't afraid to speak up, offer suggestions, and let your creativity show through.
A college degree is preferred but not required. Computer experience with the Microsoft Office Suite is required. Quickbooks experience is a plus. Previous sales experience is also a plus.
