As part of the Hunter Douglas family of brands, we've spent over 15 years transforming outdoor living spaces with premium, custom solutions. 

Here at SPF, we are a solution-based company, with a team that genuinely has each other's backs. This role gives you a steady stream of pre-set, high-quality appointments, strong marketing support, and the freedom to own your territory like it's your own business. We are selectively expanding our sales team and are  seeking proven sales professionals who thrive in a performance-driven, high-ticket environment. 

This is  not a training role. This is a  closer's seat.  

The Opportunity  

As a Design Consultant (DC), you will run 2-4 qualified, pre-set appointments per day , generated by aggressive company marketing. Your role is to deliver confident, consultative presentations and  drive decisive buying outcomes for homeowners investing in premium outdoor living solutions. 

Top performers in this role consistently: 

• Surpass the average close rate of 25%  of their issued appointments 

• Generate $125,000–$150,000+ in monthly sales  

• Operate a strong one-call-close process with disciplined follow-up 

What You'll Do  

• Deliver professional, consultative presentations focused on value - not price 

• Confidently ask for the sale and drive one-call closes whenever possible 

• Own your pipeline from first appointment through installation, following up strategically with issued quotes to maximize close rate 

• Be in control of your own compensation by generating additional revenue through referrals, repeat business, and local partnerships 

• Step in and support nearby territories when needed - because there's truly no 'I' in team, but there is an 'us' in success, as long as you look at it the right way  

• Maintain expert-level CRM pipeline management and communication standards 

Who This Role Is For:  

• Have 2-5+ years of high-ticket, consultative sales experience (move to the front of the line with in-home sales background) 

• Have consistently overachieved revenue goals set by company, ideally in a commission-based role 

• Thrive in a performance-driven environment with clear metrics, taking full ownership of your results, both wins and losses 

• Are confident, polished, and highly persuasive in the home, presenting premium pricing  

• Manage your time, territory, and follow-up like the pro you are 

This Role Is Not For You If You:  

• Are unable to overcome objections and have to rely on heavy discounts to close 

• Need scripting, micromanagement, or lack the ability to motivate yourself 

• Are uncomfortable being measured by close rate and revenue 

Compensation & Support  

• Uncapped commission structure –which for our top consultants is $150,000- $250,000+ annually. DCs not yet maximizing their territory typically see an average annual income of $80-$90k 

• Salar ied training (2 weeks) &  salary + commission during ramp-up period (10 weeks) 

• Company-generated, qualified appointments (no cold prospecting required) 

• $500 monthly car allowance + toll reimbursement 

• Sales iPad, product samples, and professional measuring equipment provided 

• Full benefits package: 

• Medical, Dental, Vision, Life, Short-term disability, Accident  

• 401(k) with 6% match 

You   focus on  closing deals,  we handle  marketing, production, and installation!  

Schedule & Requirements  

• Full-time, 5 days per week. Must be available to conduct weekend and evening sales appointments.

• Reliable personal vehicle, valid driver's license, and a willingness to travel within assigned territory  

• Ability to lift up to 40lbs & utilize a ladder for measurements 

Why Top Performers Choose SPF  

• Premium product with strong market differentiation 

• High average ticket and strong close potential 

• Consistent appointment flow backed by marketing 

• Long-term territory ownership 

• Leadership that recognizes and rewards performance  

If you are a proven closer looking for a platform that rewards excellence, we want to talk to you.
