Job description

Build Relationships. Grow Partnerships. Help Create Exceptional Homes.

At Good Deals Appliances, we believe that extraordinary projects begin with extraordinary partnerships. We're looking for an energetic, relationship-driven Business Development Representative to become the face of our company within the design and building community.

This is not a traditional sales role.

Your mission is to build long-term relationships with kitchen designers, interior designers, architects, custom home builders, remodelers, and other trade professionals, helping them discover why Good Deals Appliances is the trusted partner for luxury appliance solutions.

You'll spend most of your time outside the showroom- visiting firms, networking, attending industry events, and creating opportunities that generate lasting referral relationships. Once a client is referred, our experienced appliance specialists take over the design consultation, quoting, ordering, and project management. Your focus remains where it matters most: strengthening partnerships and growing our referral network.

What You'll Do

• Develop and maintain relationships with kitchen designers, interior designers, architects, builders, remodelers, and other trade professionals.
• Make regular in-person visits to design firms, builder offices, and job sites.
• Identify and develop new trade accounts throughout the market.
• Represent Good Deals at industry networking events, association meetings, and trade organizations.
• Plan and host educational seminars, product demonstrations, CEU events, happy hours, and networking events in our showroom.
• Collaborate closely with our showroom sales consultants to ensure referred clients receive an exceptional experience.
• Serve as an ongoing resource and advocate for our trade partners throughout their projects.
• Stay informed on industry trends, luxury appliance brands, and the evolving needs of the design community.
• Track business development activity and maintain relationships through our CRM.

What We're Looking For

• A genuine passion for building relationships and connecting with people.
• Excellent communication and presentation skills.
• Comfortable spending significant time on the road meeting clients face-to-face.
• Self-motivated with strong organizational and time-management skills.
• Experience in business development, outside sales, account management, or relationship management.
• Experience working with designers, builders, architects, or the luxury home industry is highly preferred.
• Ability to network confidently and represent a premium brand professionally.
• A collaborative mindset with the ability to work closely alongside an internal sales team.

This Position Is NOT

• Cold-call retail sales.
• High-pressure commission selling.
• Responsible for appliance design consultations.
• Responsible for preparing quotations.
• Responsible for processing orders.
• Responsible for project fulfillment or installation management.

Instead, your success will be measured by the strength of the relationships you build, the quality of the partnerships you develop, and the long-term referral business those relationships generate.

Why Join Good Deals?

For decades, Good Deals has earned a reputation as one of the region's leading appliance specialists. Our luxury showroom, premium brand partnerships, knowledgeable appliance experts, and commitment to exceptional customer service make us the ideal partner for today's design and construction professionals.

We're investing heavily in growing our trade business and are looking for someone who wants to become a trusted resource within the local design and building community - not just another salesperson.

If you enjoy networking, developing meaningful business relationships, and becoming a valued partner to architects, designers, and builders, we'd love to meet you.

• Join us and help shape the relationships that build beautiful homes.
