Areli Sportswear Sales Rep

Location

West Chicago, IL

Job Summary

Areli Sportswear is seeking motivated Sales Representatives to develop new business

and build lasting relationships with schools, sports teams, clubs, organizations, and

local businesses. This role is responsible for identifying prospective customers,

understanding their apparel and uniform needs and converting opportunities into

long-term accounts.

An ideal candidate is comfortable with outbound prospecting, relationship-based selling,

and consistent follow-up. Success in this role requires initiative, resilience, strong

communication skills, and the ability to manage the sales process from initial outreach

through close and ongoing account development.

As a Sales Representative, you will have the opportunity to build your own book of

business while representing custom uniforms, team apparel, spirit wear, online team

stores, and corporate apparel. The role is well suited for someone who is goal-oriented,

self-directed, and motivated by both new business development and repeat customer

growth.

WHY ARELI?

Areli Sportswear is building a modern custom sportswear company for teams that want

great uniforms, great service, and a partner who actually gives a damn.

We're ambitious. We're growing. And we're looking for salespeople who want to grow

with us.

You won't be selling some random product you don't care about.

You'll walk into gyms and see kids wearing uniforms you sold.

You'll see your customers on Friday nights.

You'll see your work on fields, courts, diamonds, and rinks.

That's a lot more fun than sitting in a cubicle or walking door-to-door every single day.

• - Manage the sales process from initial outreach and qualification through proposal, follow-up, closing, and ongoing account development.
• - Be available 24/7 for consumer questions and assistance.
• - Grow an individual book of business by generating new accounts, encouraging repeat seasonal orders, and identifying opportunities to expand existing customer relationships.
• - Communicate clearly and professionally with customers throughout the ordering and sales process while ensuring commitments and follow-up items are completed in a timely manner.
• - Maintain accurate and organized records of prospects, customer interactions, opportunities, and sales activity.
• - Work independently and take ownership of assigned goals with minimal day-to-day supervision or hands-on direction.
