About the role

We are looking for a driven Inside Sales Representative to grow our wholesale division by building their own client base. This role is not about servicing existing accounts — it’s about creating opportunity, starting conversations, and converting leads into long-term clients.

If you enjoy speaking to people, understand how selling works, and are confident in negotiating and closing deals, this role is built for you.

Key Responsibilities

• Proactively establish and grow your own client base through calls, walk-ins, WhatsApp, referrals, and any other effective sales channels
• Identify and approach potential wholesale customers (e.g., contractors, retailers, developers, plumbers, project buyers, etc.)
• Present products clearly and confidently, understanding customer needs and offering suitable solutions
• Negotiate pricing and terms within company guidelines
• Close deals and follow through to ensure smooth order processing
• Maintain basic sales records and client information
• Work closely with the internal team to align on pricing, availability, and delivery timelines

What We Are Looking For

• Strong people and communication skills (verbal and written)
• Natural ability to build rapport and hold sales conversations
• Understanding of sales fundamentals: prospecting, negotiation, and closing
• Self-motivated and results-driven mindset
• Willingness to learn product knowledge quickly
• Ability to commute reliably to work Monday to Friday (8am–5pm)
• Previous experience in sales, wholesale, hardware, plumbing, building materials, or related industries is an advantage — but not a deal-breaker

What We Offer

• Opportunity to build and own your sales pipeline
• Exposure to a growing wholesale business with strong product backing
• Support, training, and product knowledge development
• Remuneration: [Base salary + commission structure / Commission-based / To be discussed]
• Growth potential for the right candidate
