Summer Sales Associate

We are looking to bring on 3-4 summer sales interns for about 2 months (exact start & end dates flexible). We are a healthy dog food startup, looking to expand our retail footprint amongst independent retailers (think your local mom & pop pet store!). We have a hot brand that is beginning to have recognition within the market. This is an exciting time for an entrepreneurial student to get their feet wet with sales! You'll work directly with the founder of the company. You'll learn the dynamics of the pet food market, what makes our product special, and how you can use that knowledge to make sales.

Day to day responsibilities will include: 1) developing & maintaining a list of prospective customers; 2) working to move target retailers through the sales pipeline, and 3) closing by getting the prospect to place an initial order! Unlike most pet food manufacturers, we have no order minimums and cover the cost of shipping, which removes a lot of friction for prospective retailers.

Position will have a negotiable monthly stipend and the opportunity to earn bonuses based on performance. Further details to be discussed & formally outlined later in the process.
