Outside Eyewear Sales Representative (Washington DC-Baltimore Area)

Independent Sales Representative (1099) – Mid-Atlantic (Washington, D.C. / Maryland / Northern Virginia) .

Denon Eyewear New York is looking for an independent sales representative to manage and grow a territory of independent eye care customers. This is a great opportunity for a motivated salesperson to advance their career in B2B sales.

The Role: Your main focus will be visiting independent eye care locations to ensure they are stocked, styled, and educated on our latest collections. You will be the face of the brand, helping opticians and frame buyers understand the value and quality of our products.

Key Responsibilities:

• Visit all accounts on a consistent rotation to check inventory and refresh displays.
• Build strong relationships with practice owners, decision makers and staff members.
• Set up point of purchase materials, including window clings and posters.
• Identify and open new accounts to expand our footprint.
• Keep sample trays clean and presentable for every sales call.
• Communicate Denon Eyewear core values and benefits.

Compensation and Support: We offer a competitive compensation package that includes a guarantee to help with territory expenses, a strong commission structure, and performance-based bonuses. There is significant room for growth as you scale your account base.

Requirements: We are looking for someone energetic and goal-oriented. We prefer at least two years of outside sales experience within eyewear sales. You must be able to drive the territory five days a week and carry/wheel sample bags weighing up to 30 pounds.

About Denon Eyewear:

Denon Eyewear is a family-owned eyewear brand based out of New York. We make quiet luxury frames and sunglasses: no oversized logos, well-made and understated eyewear that people wear for years.

We sell only to independent practices. More than 250+ independent optical shops across the Northeast and Midwest carry Denon, and none of them compete with a chain down the street selling the same frames.

Our reps get real support in the field:

• B2B ordering platform: your accounts can reorder online any time, so you can spend your calls selling instead of writing up orders.
• CRM access: see your accounts’ order history, what they’ve bought, and when they’re due to reorder, all before you walk in the door.
• Consumer marketing: paid social, streaming TV, and out-of-home campaigns that send customers into your accounts asking for the brand.
• Direct access to ownership: no layers of management. When an account needs something, you get an answer the same day.

We’re growing one territory at a time and looking for reps who want to grow with us.
