Position Overview

Stop Pest Control is looking for a high-energy, results-driven Sales Growth Leader to help take our Melvindale operation to the next level.

Primary Responsibilities

• Drive new commercial and residential pest control sales.
• Build and manage a strong pipeline of new opportunities.
• Prospect through cold calling, email, networking, referrals, door-to-door business development, and in-person meetings.
• Develop relationships with property managers, facility managers, business owners, general managers, and decision-makers.
• Schedule and conduct walkthroughs of prospective customer locations.
• Prepare proposals, pricing, presentations, and service recommendations.
• Follow up aggressively and professionally on open opportunities.
• Convert one-time pest control customers into recurring service agreements.
• Identify opportunities for multi-location and larger commercial accounts.
• Build partnerships with property management companies and other organizations that can generate recurring business.
• Track sales activity, opportunities, proposals, wins, losses, and monthly revenue.
• Work closely with operations to ensure new accounts are transitioned properly after the sale.
• Help develop sales strategies, territory plans, and growth targets for the company.
• Recruit, train, and eventually help lead additional sales representatives as the company grows.
• Represent Stop Pest Control professionally throughout Metro Detroit.

What We Are Looking For

We want a hunter and a builder—someone who does not wait for leads to come in.

Ideal candidate has

• Strong sales and business-development experience.
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills.
• Experience with commercial accounts and recurring service contracts.
• Strong cold-calling and prospecting ability.
• Confidence meeting directly with executives, owners, and facility decision-makers.
• Ability to negotiate and close business.
• Strong organization and follow-up skills.
• Leadership mentality with the ability to eventually build a sales team.
• A strong understanding of Metro Detroit and the local business community.
• Pest control, facility services, property management, landscaping, janitorial, HVAC, security, or other B2B service-industry sales experience is a major plus.

What Success Looks Like

The goal of this position is simple: grow Stop Pest Control.

Success will be measured through new recurring monthly revenue, new commercial accounts, sales pipeline growth, customer retention, multi-location opportunities, proposal close rate, and overall territory growth.

We want this person to become a major part of the company’s growth—not just fill a sales seat.

Location

Stop Pest Control

Melvindale, Michigan

Opportunity
