About Us Priddy Chimney Solutions is a growing family-owned company based in Beltsville, Maryland specializing in chimney cleaning, repair, relining, appliance installation, and masonry services in Maryland, D.C. and Virginia. We offer the opportunity to join one of the top chimney service brands in the DMV area with year-round employment, consistent hours, and the continued reinvestment in our employees with ongoing paid training, certification and professional development. Our core values are honesty and integrity, a commitment to service excellence, and rock-solid reliability. The companys goal is to deliver outstanding results each and every time. Job Overview The In-Home Sales Consultant is a trusted consultant responsible for helping homeowners make informed decisions about the safety, performance, and appearance of their chimney and fireplace systems. This role combines professional Level 1-3 chimney inspections with consultative in-home sales. Through detailed inspections, customer education, and solution-based recommendations, the In-Home Sales Consultant identifies safety concerns, maintenance needs, repair opportunities, and fireplace enhancement projects. In addition to inspection appointments, Sales Consultants also meet with homeowners interested in replacing, upgrading, or installing new fireplaces and help design solutions that meet the customer's vision, needs, and budget. Success in this role comes from building trust, educating customers, delivering professional recommendations, and creating long-term customer relationships—not high-pressure sales tactics. Primary Responsibilities Customer Consultations Perform professional chimney inspections in accordance with customer needs as well as industry and company standards. Evaluate chimney and fireplace systems for safety, functionality, maintenance needs, and code-related concerns. Consult with homeowners interested in fireplace upgrades, remodeling, replacements, or new installations. Listen carefully to understand homeowner concerns, priorities, and project goals. Consultative Sales Clearly explain inspection findings using inspection reports, photos, videos, and other visual aids. Educate homeowners on recommended repairs, maintenance, safety improvements, and enhancement options. Develop recommendations that align with the customer's needs, priorities, and budget. Prepare and present professional proposals whenever possible during the customer visit. Confidently ask for the customer's business while maintaining a consultative, customer-first approach. Follow up on outstanding proposals in accordance with company sales processes. Customer Experience Deliver an exceptional customer experience during every appointment. Build trust through professionalism, honesty, and technical expertise. Maintain strong communication throughout the sales process. Generate referrals and repeat business through outstanding service. Sales Process & Administration Maintain accurate customer records, inspection findings, and sales opportunities in Housecall Pro. Manage opportunities from initial inspection through proposal, follow-up, sale, and handoff to Operations. Meet established sales, close rate, and customer satisfaction goals. Collaborate with Operations, Customer Service, and Installation teams to ensure a seamless customer experience. Professional Development Stay current on chimney safety standards, fireplace products, venting systems, building codes, and installation practices. Participate in company training, coaching sessions, and industry certification programs. Continuously improve product knowledge, sales skills, and customer communication. Qualifications Preferred Experience Experience in consultative, in-home, or outside sales. Experience in residential construction, remodeling, HVAC, roofing, restoration, fireplaces, home improvement, or similar industries is preferred. Experience performing residential inspections is a plus but not required. Ability to build trust and communicate technical information in a way homeowners can easily understand. Strong listening, presentation, and closing skills. Comfortable using CRM software and mobile technology. Valid driver's license with an acceptable driving record. Education High school diploma or equivalent required. Industry certifications are a plus and can be obtained through company-sponsored training. What Success Looks Like Successful Outside Sales Advisors consistently: Build trust quickly with homeowners. Perform thorough, professional inspections. Clearly explain findings and recommendations. Present complete proposals before leaving the home whenever possible. Maintain disciplined follow-up on every opportunity. Meet or exceed sales and close-rate expectations. Deliver exceptional customer experiences that generate referrals and repeat business. Work collaboratively with Operations to ensure projects are completed successfully.
