Who we are:
In 2020, we introduced an amazing product to an industry that hadn’t historically seen products supported with the retail expertise and brand development we used to establish our products in the marketplace. Those core competencies, along with our “Award Winning” beverage has lead us to expand our operations.
Bong Water Beverage Company introduced its THC infused drinks in March of 2020 in Oklahoma. The word spread, and we’re now launching our products in other states. With the new law in effect in Minnesota effective July 1st, 2022, we are actively looking to immediately fill territory/route sales representatives to support the Minnesota market.
What you’ll be doing:
· Work within an assigned geography/territory to introduce Bong Water products by visiting retailers/stores that are looking for Delta 9 infused products, and support retailers that already carry Bong Water Beverage products. You'll initially have product on-hand to close sales immediately!
· Work with the retailer’s primary contact responsible for inventory management and product selection either on new or refill orders.
· Provide an extraordinary customer experience to retail partner staff and management by taking a proactive approach to inventory fulfillment, as well as providing a quick response time to inquiries and retailer needs.
· Approach your work with a mindset that focuses on developing business relationships with your locations that will help them grow their business and increase Bong Water Beverage sales within your assigned territory.
Who we’re looking for:
· Out-going, customer-centric minded sales “Hunters”.
· Individuals who understand and have established new retail distribution and grown existing store sales.
· Those with experience around new product introduction/launches.
· If you’re confident speaking with all audiences of a retailer. (Sales, Mgmt, Owners)
· People that are self-disciplined and can work independently to hold themselves accountable for performance to deliver results.
· Individuals that are comfortable working in a start-up environment that has an element of ambiguity and change.
· Field sales professionals that understand the road warrior approach successfully developing an assigned territory. (This is not a 9-5 role, retail/week-end hours matter)
· People that are comfortable, if not already familiar with working on a commission based compensation plan with uncapped earning potential based sales.
Compensation:
These are base + commission roles. You are compensated on initial sales as well as all orders placed after that initial sale. Hunting for new distribution (retailers) is key, however over time the retail base you build will be a significant portion of your income, therefore account (retailer) management of these legacy locations is critical to significant income tomorrow.
Year one forecasted income - $50,000 - $75,000*
* This is not a role that you will walk into a six-figure income overnight. But with our product and brand behind you, you’ll get there if you have what it takes and have the attributes we’ve laid out previously, this is not a hard sale. The product is selling itself. But follow-up with retail leads is critical. We are in a rapid expansion phase at this point, so you can benefit if you put in the time.
