Position Description
We’re looking for a motivated, sales-oriented Account Manager to follow up on leads, provide quotes, manage accounts and sell the product line. The company has an excellent reputation in the industry and a team of professionals who are passionate about the company and product line. Many of the employees have been with the company a very long time – they have a great work culture and working environment. You will be compensated by a base salary and commission, and there is no cap on commission. What you sell, you earn commission on. This is an on-site position and you’ll be working with the inside sales team at their mid-west headquarters in Livonia. The product line is expansive, so there will be adequate training to get you up to speed on the products.
If you’ve been in the workplace for a few years, you know how important it is to find a company that values their employees and provides a platform for long term success, support and growth. Opportunities like this one are often hard to find.
What we’d like you to bring to the table:
- A few years of relevant work experience

- A willingness to learn the product line
- Several years of sales experience – retail, inside sales, route sales, etc.
- Technical mindset – you enjoy technical products and have an aptitude for it
- CRM savvy – you’re familiar with CRM entries and data management.
- Team player – your prior experience demonstrates that you integrate well with both managers, peers and customers.
- Reliable – you show up to work on time and stay focused on your responsibilities.
- The ability to pivot from rejection and maintain a positive outlook.
Starting base salary range likely in the 50K-65K range plus commission, based on prior experience. No experience and straight out of college, you'll be in the 50K base range to start (plus commission you're looking at closer to 60K first year). With experience, you'll be starting in the 60K-65K base salary range plus commission (70K-75K plus with commission). Excellent benefit package. Great work culture.
