WOW CUSTOMERS & ROCK THE SALES GAME: TEES, HATS, STICKERS, MEMORIES & MORE

THE OPPORTUNITY: At EMI-TGT, part of the Lakeshirts family, we're in the memory-making business. For more than 30 years, we've been creating travel- and adventure-inspired products that celebrate where people go and what they experience along the way. From bold stickers and accessories to stylish tees, hats, and cozy sweatshirts, our designs help retailers tell stories-and help customers take a piece of their adventure home.

We're looking for a Sales Representative who's ready to grow business, build relationships, and bring energy to the road. In this role, you'll partner closely with our National Sales Manager to expand our retailer base, strengthen existing accounts, and make sure EMI-TGT products stand out in shops across your territory.

This isn't a buttoned-up, corporate sales job. We're creative, fast-moving, and fueled by originality. If you love selling products that spark emotion, connect with travelers, and turn moments into memories....this might be your next great adventure.

TERRITORY

Washington State - we're looking for someone located anywhere in the state, who is willing to travel. If this sounds like a fit for you, let's talk.
