Job Description
Outside Roofing Sales Representative | Jacksonville-Crystal Coast | $120K at Target Fortitude Roofing |
Jacksonville, NC Territory:
Jacksonville, Onslow County, Topsail, Swansboro, and the Crystal Coast Independent 1099 Opportunity | 10% Commission | Uncapped Earnings Build Your Career—and Your Territory Fortitude Roofing is expanding throughout Eastern North Carolina. We are looking for an ambitious, self-directed sales professional to develop roofing business from Jacksonville to the Crystal Coast. The position is advertised in Jacksonville because it provides a central location for the assigned territory, which will primarily include: Jacksonville and Onslow County Holly Ridge and Sneads Ferry Surf City and the Topsail area Swansboro and Cape Carteret Morehead City and surrounding Crystal Coast communities This opportunity is for someone who wants more than another sales job. It is a chance to develop your own market, build a valuable book of business, and create meaningful income through your performance. Roofing experience is not required. We will teach you our products, systems, and sales process. You do need initiative, confidence, discipline, coachability, and the willingness to create opportunities instead of waiting for someone to assign them to you. A Company You Can Be Proud to Represent Fortitude Roofing serves homeowners, builders, and businesses throughout Coastal North Carolina.Our mission is simple:
Better our communities through our work. We operate around three core values: Develop Leaders — We want people to become more capable because they worked with Fortitude. Provide an Unmatched Customer Experience — We do not compete by being the cheapest. We compete by being better. Impact Our Community — We believe successful businesses should strengthen the communities they serve. These values influence how we sell, how we operate, and who we allow to represent Fortitude. Sell Something Worth Representing Fortitude provides premium roofing systems for homeowners, builders, and businesses, including: Architectural asphalt-shingle roofing Standing-seam metal roofingFORTIFIED
roofing systems Residential and commercial roofing New-construction and replacement roofing Roofing systems designed for coastal conditions We roll-form our own standing-seam metal panels, specialize in coastal roofing systems, and have a professional operations team responsible for delivering the work our sales representatives produce. When you meet with a homeowner, builder, or property owner, you can be confident in the company behind you. What You Will Do Your responsibility is to create revenue by developing relationships, identifying roofing opportunities, and closing business throughout your assigned territory.Your work will include:
Prospecting for residential and commercial roofing opportunities Conducting neighborhood outreach Building referral and professional networks Developing relationships with homeowners, builders, real estate professionals, property managers, and community partners Inspecting properties and identifying roofing needs Guiding customers through the roofing consultation and sales process Presenting proposals and asking for the business Following up consistently with prospective customers Managing your pipeline and tracking your performance Developing relationships that produce repeat and referral business Some days will involve customer appointments and proposal presentations. Other days will require creating those opportunities from scratch. This is not a company-managed, appointment-running position. Fortitude may occasionally provide an opportunity, but you should not expect a steady flow of company-generated leads. The people who succeed here take ownership of their pipeline. Focus on Selling—Not Managing Construction At many roofing companies, salespeople become responsible for materials, scheduling, production problems, collections, and customer complaints after the contract is signed. Fortitude is built differently. Our operations team manages job preparation, scheduling, production, project communication, and field execution. This allows you to remain focused on what produces revenue: Creating opportunities. Building relationships. Closing business. Growing your pipeline. Sell the project, hand it to a professional operations team, and go create the next opportunity. What Fortitude Provides Fortitude gives its sales representatives a professional platform from which to build their business, including: Roofing product and sales training Direct coaching and performance feedback CRM, estimating, presentation, and sales technology Marketing resources and branded materials Professional estimating support Dedicated production and operational support Established company systems and reputation Opportunities across residential, metal, builder, and commercial roofing Advancement opportunities as the company expands We provide the brand, training, technology, resources, and operational infrastructure. You are responsible for using those resources to produce revenue. Who Will Succeed Here This opportunity is well suited for someone who: Wants income and advancement tied to performance Is confident initiating conversations with new people Can work independently without constant supervision Is competitive and motivated by measurable goals Responds well to coaching and applies feedback Is willing to prospect consistently Communicates professionally and follows through Takes responsibility when results fall short Wants to build a professional network and book of business Is willing to do uncomfortable work to create better opportunities Wants to help develop a territory rather than inherit an established position Relevant experience may come from sales, athletics, hospitality, real estate, home services, entrepreneurship, fundraising, military service, leadership, or another performance-driven environment. We can teach roofing and professional selling. We cannot teach personal drive, reliability, character, or work ethic. Compensation This is an independent 1099, commission-only opportunity .Annual sales target:
$1.2 million in contracted revenue Standard commission: 10% of contracted revenue Expected earnings at target: Approximately $120,000Accelerators:
Increased earning opportunity above annual target Earnings cap: None Top-performer potential: $200,000+ There is no base salary, guaranteed lead flow, company vehicle, mileage reimbursement, or employee-benefits package. Your income will be determined by the business you create. Candidates should be prepared to manage the financial ramp associated with building an initial pipeline and waiting for commissions to be earned and paid. Where This Can Go Fortitude is expanding throughout Eastern and Coastal North Carolina while growing its residential, builder, commercial, and standing-seam metal divisions. Someone who establishes a strong track record in the Jacksonville-Crystal Coast territory could earn opportunities involving: Greater responsibility within the local market Builder and commercial accounts Larger territories New-market development Sales leadership Recruiting and developing future representatives Market or team leadership Advancement is not based on tenure. It is earned through production, leadership, sound judgment, and consistent execution. Is This the Right Opportunity for You? This is not a traditional sales position with a salary, benefits package, and appointments waiting on your calendar. It is an opportunity to learn professional selling, establish valuable relationships, build a book of business, and create income through your own production. If you want a base salary, guaranteed appointments, or a highly managed environment, this will not be the right fit. If you are competitive, coachable, willing to initiate conversations, and excited by the opportunity to build business throughout Jacksonville, Topsail, Swansboro, and the Crystal Coast, we want to hear from you.
