Transportation Services Sales Rep Kansas City, MO
Job description
Hello, Thank you for checking out our opportunity, you've landed on a great one! Have you ever wanted the chance to start your own sales department, from scratch?
We are a small trucking business in Kansas City that is sitting on the launchpad, filling the rocket with fuel, and preparing to take on exponential growth. We can't do it without this role being filled with a ROCKSTAR! Is this you? We will back up your great sale with excellent service, that is our promise to you.
To make sure we're the most efficient with this process, we're looking for someone with at least a few years of experience in transportation sales at a minimum. If this isn't you, please keep our info and look us up later as we'll no doubt be adding more sales team members in the near future! =)
Another quality that we must have a salesperson who's hungry but humble, and carries themselves with the highest of integrity. A kind spirited individual who has a passion for the craft of interacting with people and staying true to our companies values. Our culture is number one to us.
Our operation starts in KC daily, and runs out a half day on average, unload, reload and come back to KC for the night. So our needs are very specific and niche. Are you ready for that challenge?
We have over 70 years of industry experience in our office alone, and everyone has a CDL for help with the growth. We are currently small at 14 drivers, and are primarily looking for opportunities that pickup from any of the following locations and come to Kansas City.
Services Sold: Truckload, LTL and Power Only trucking, Yard Management Services (spotting/hostling), Real Time Warehousing services (not looking for long-term storage with large volume at this time, but if it came with enough trucking, we'd find a facility to make that happen).
Lanes: We are primarily looking for lanes within 300 miles of Kansas City coming back to Kansas City to start. With special emphaisis on the KC - Springfield and Springfield KC markets! Can you make this happen for us?
Quick Examples: Springfield MO, Joplin MO, Emporia KS, Salina KS, Omaha NE, Des Moines IA, Macon MO, Columbia MO, STL, Rolla MO, NW Arkansas, NE Oklahoma. Also, KC to these locations, just need to focus on back hauls first.
Pay structure: Commission Only w/Base*
Starting 6 month Base: $1000/week for the first 180 days. Not an advance. Then $1000/week is an advance on commissions if it's exercised after 180 days.
Commission: Up front commission will vary based on many factors, but would be no less than the amount of the first load we haul for them, and as much as 10% for the first XX days.* Residual pay of 2% of the earnings for the first year.
Example: $2.5M in revenue pays the base advance. Bring $5M in revenue, make a residual $100k not including up front commissions, and it just goes up from there.
Bonus: Large bonuses given for hitting sales goals
Example: Land 10 loads a week from outside KC coming back = 10% of the gross for the first ___ days (many variables but paid for a minimum of 30 days).
