Description

Most of our work comes as a result of customers experiencing a “loss” at their home from fire & smoke damage, water damage, or mold damage. These are not planned events. Customers can be overwhelmed and of course want to get back to the way their home was before as soon as possible. We need people who are empathetic to these situations and enjoy helping people. We market to companies and organizations who hear about these losses firsthand. This role is responsible for building a relationship of trust, where they trust 1-800 Water Damage of Southeast Michigan to help their customers out. We have an excellent reputation. We need someone who is confident and proud of that reputation and will tout us and strongly encourage businesses like insurance agencies and plumbing companies primarily to recommend our services.

The right candidate will be self-driven and understand that sales is a numbers game. We are not selling by phone. We are out meeting and visiting our referral sources. Plumber meetings typically begin by 7AM. Other businesses such as insurance agents are typically open from 9-5. That means we should be seeing our first agent by 9:30 am and our last appointment should be between 4-4:30pm. The more people we regularly see, the more jobs we will get. This is a full-time job, not part time.

Compensation

We offer very competitive compensation (based upon experience), a company vehicle, paid vacation, holidays and health insurance.
