Sales Representative

Selling beverages isn't like selling anything else. You're not chasing cold leads or pitching strangers — you're walking the same stores week after week, building the kind of relationships where a store manager calls you before they call anyone else. You see the results of your work immediately: your brands on the shelf, your displays in the best spot, your numbers moving. At Virginia Eagle Distributing (VED), our Sales Representatives carry some of the most recognized brands in the world into every corner of their territory. VED is one of Virginia's top beverage distributors, and our Lynchburgteam is looking for someone who's competitive, credible, and ready to own a market. You'll manage a defined book of retail accounts, grow volume and distribution, and work hand-in-hand with a delivery and merchandising team that backs you up every single day. The pace is real, the relationships are lasting, and your paycheck reflects exactly how well you execute. Compensation This is a fully commission-based role — no base salary or draw. Compensation is made up of three components: Estimated Commission Potential (ECP) — tied directly to your territory's sales volume and commission rate Quota achievement bonus — $3,600 annually Pay for Performance (PFP) — $9,300 annually Estimated annual total compensation for this location ranges from $55,000-$63,000. Actual earnings vary by territory and individual performance — reps who build strong account relationships and execute consistently earn at the top of the range.
