Average Earnings: $50,000–$75,000/year
Hourly Base + Uncapped Bonuses | Full-Time with Benefits

Help Shoppers Save Money and the Planet
If you're looking for a role where you can talk to people, grow your skills, and make a difference—all while working in a fun retail environment—this is the opportunity for you. Our Sales Associates are stationed inside popular big-box stores, engaging shoppers and sparking interest in solar energy and home battery systems.

You’ll act as the first point of contact in the customer's clean energy journey. No cold calling, no door knocking—just genuine, one-on-one conversations with people already browsing in-store. Your job is to explain the basics, answer questions, and set up free home consultations.

Why This Role Stands Out
You’ll be representing a top-tier residential clean energy provider that offers affordable, accessible solutions to homeowners. With ongoing training and real career advancement paths, this role offers more than just a paycheck—it’s a stepping stone into the booming clean tech industry.

In addition to competitive pay, you’ll have access to employer-paid education, health benefits from day one, and extra income for every lead and sale generated. This is a performance-driven environment with strong mentorship and a team that celebrates your wins.

Daily Responsibilities

• Create a welcoming presence inside high-traffic retail locations

• Approach customers naturally to discuss solar energy and battery backup systems

• Use simple language to explain how renewable energy works and how it benefits homeowners

• Capture customer interest and schedule follow-up consultations

• Log leads and notes via a mobile tablet provided by the company

• Consistently meet outreach goals to maximize your commissions

Compensation Structure
This position offersuncapped earning potentialwith a base hourly rate and performance-based incentives:

• Hourly Wage: $16+

• Lead Bonuses: $25–$60 per appointment set

• Sale Completion Bonuses: $90–$600 per closed deal

• Paid every two weeks with direct deposit

We’re Looking for People Who…

• Are outgoing, engaging, and comfortable starting conversations

• Enjoy working independently in a fast-paced environment

• Can adapt to a flexible schedule including weekends and evenings

• Have reliable transportation and can travel within a local territory

• Have experience in customer service, sales, or hospitality (preferred but not required)

Get More Than Just a Job
From day one, you’ll be enrolled in a benefits program that supports your total well-being—financially, physically, and emotionally. Medical, dental, and vision coverage are just the beginning. We also offer:

• Paid time off, holidays, and a personal “You Day”

• 401(k) with company matching

• Tuition-free education programs and upskilling opportunities

• Mental health and telehealth support

• Paid parental leave and volunteer days

• Discount programs for wellness services and family care
