Job Description

Ready to build a sales career—not just take another sales job?

Graphic House, Inc. is looking for a motivated, competitive, and coachable Sales Executive who is ready to learn, grow, and build a successful territory.

You don't need years of sign industry experience. You don't even need an extensive sales background. We're willing to train the right person.

What we do need is someone who is hungry to succeed, isn't afraid to pick up the phone, enjoys meeting new people, and is motivated by turning opportunities into wins. If you're someone who takes initiative, likes a challenge, and wants your effort to directly impact your income and career growth, we'd like to meet you.

We Invest in Your Success

We aren't going to hand you a territory on day one and tell you to figure it out.

Your first six months will be focused on training and inside sales , giving you the opportunity to learn our business from the ground up. You'll prospect for new customers, work on bids, learn our products and manufacturing capabilities, and work alongside experienced members of our team.

Once you're ready, you'll transition into an assigned sales territory with the knowledge and support you need to succeed.

What You'll Get

• Minimum $65,000 base salary plus commission
• Company vehicle
• Extensive sales and product training
• A defined path from training into territory sales
• Opportunity to grow your income through performanceSupport from Project Managers, Estimating, Design, Manufacturing, and Installation
• Hands‑on experience learning how custom signage is designed, built, installed, and serviced
• A long‑term career opportunity with room to grow
• The ability to sell a product you can actually see being built—from concept through installation

What You'll Do

You’ll be responsible for building relationships and creating new business. That means being proactive—not waiting for opportunities to come to you.

You’ll:

• Prospect and develop new customers
• Make outbound calls and emails and follow up on leads
• Identify new opportunities within your assigned territory
• Meet with prospective customers and learn about their businesses
• Listen to customer needs and help develop the right signage solutions
• Work with our internal team to prepare estimates, proposals, and presentations
• Follow opportunities from the first conversation through the close
• Build strong, long‑term customer relationships
• Work toward individual sales goals and continuously grow your territory

Who We're Looking For

We’re more interested in your drive and potential than the number of years on your résumé.

You may be a great fit if you are:

• Hungry and motivated to build a successful career
• Competitive and energized by achieving goals
• Coachable and willing to learn
• Comfortable reaching out to people you don't know
• Confident communicating by phone, email, and in person
• Persistent—you don't give up after the first "no"
• Organized and able to manage multiple opportunities at once
• Curious and willing to learn a technical, custom-manufacturing business
• Someone who takes ownership instead of waiting to be told what to do
• Motivated by the opportunity to earn more based on your performance

Previous sales experience is a plus, but it is not required. We are willing to train someone who has the right attitude, work ethic, communication skills, and desire to succeed.

A valid driver's license and acceptable motor vehicle record are required. Travel within your assigned territory will be part of the position, with minimal overnight travel.
