Job Title: Sales Associate: Custom Specialist
Location: LABEL, Soho, New York City
Reports to: Sales Manager
LABEL is seeking a results-oriented "hunter" to drive direct sales, acquire clients, and build a robust pipeline in the custom clothing industry. We value accountability, ambition, and a commitment to hitting measurable sales targets.
What You Will Do:
- Lead Generation: Proactively self-source new clients via cold calling, email, and social media. Consistently meet appointment-setting and revenue goals.
- Sales Appointments: Conduct sales appointments with professionals, including business executives and entrepreneurs, in our LABEL showroom or at other convenient locations.
- Client Management: Build long-term relationships through personalized follow-ups, regular communication, and meticulous CRM record-keeping.
- Operations: Ensure timely, accurate order submissions and collaborate with the team to optimize sales workflows.
The Candidate Trial Phase (Pre-Hire): To ensure a mutual fit, top-tier candidates complete a two-week, 10-hour paid working trial. You will manage your own outreach schedule independently within this window to execute the following:
- Initial Training (3 hours): Learn the essentials of LABEL’s service, client profile, and appointment-setting strategies.
- Execution (7 hours): Build a target list of 50-100+ high-quality leads and initiate outreach. You book the meeting; a LABEL Mentor conducts the appointment. Proof of work (prospecting/outreach) is required.
- Assessment: We evaluate your activity level, coachability, professional communication, and ability to create urgency. Candidates must generate $3,000 or more in sales during this phase to advance.
Training & Certification (Once Hired): Following a successful trial, you will complete a structured two-three month training program to master LABEL’s sales processes, product knowledge, and measuring techniques. Successful completion of the final certification test is required to begin selling independently.
Attributes We Value:
- Hunter Mentality: Motivated by pursuing leads, closing deals, and exceeding targets.
- Accountable & Ambitious: Take ownership of results with an entrepreneurial spirit.
- Professional & Detailed: Exhibit a polished demeanor with accuracy in every detail.
- Personable: Natural ability to connect with clients and foster trust.
- Coachable: Value personal growth and open to feedback.
What We Are Looking For:
- 1-2 years of experience in sales, cold calling, or customer service preferred.
- Proven ability to meet or exceed sales goals.
- Bachelor’s degree or equivalent work experience.
- Successful completion of the two-week paid trial.
