Carpet City Flooring Center - Marshfield, WI • Marshfield, WI, US
Posted 2 hours ago
Turn Conversations into Customers. Build Relationships into Business.
Carpet City Flooring Center is looking for a motivated salesperson to join our Marshfield team and help us grow.
This is an in-office/showroom-based sales position with a strong focus on business development. You'll work with customers who come into our showroom, but we're looking for someone who is equally motivated to create the next opportunity.
That means picking up the phone. Following up on a quote. Reconnecting with a past customer. Introducing yourself to a property manager or builder. Asking for a referral. Identifying a local business that could benefit from working with us—and starting the conversation.
You'll have the resources and stability of an established flooring showroom behind you while having the opportunity to develop your own customers, grow your sales, and increase your earning potential.
Potential customers include homeowners, property managers, assisted and senior living communities, builders, remodelers, local businesses, small commercial properties, and other organizations with ongoing flooring needs.
On-Target Earnings: $50,000–$80,000+
This position pays the higher of base pay or earned commission, providing the security of a guaranteed base with the opportunity to earn more as your sales grow.
Create & Develop Business
Business development is an important part of this position. We're looking for someone who takes ownership of generating opportunities rather than relying solely on incoming showroom traffic.
Identify and pursue new customers and sales opportunities
Build relationships with property managers, builders, remodelers, senior living communities, local businesses, and other potential accounts
Generate opportunities through phone calls, email, referrals, networking, and consistent follow-up
Reconnect with previous customers to generate repeat and referral business
Turn new contacts into appointments, quotes, and long-term customer relationships
Maintain relationships with existing customers and look for additional opportunities to serve them
Consistently manage and follow up on leads, quotes, and open opportunities
Build and maintain an active sales pipeline
Help Customers from Selection Through Installation
You'll also work directly with customers throughout their flooring projects.
Welcome and assist customers in our Racine showroom
Learn about each customer's project, style, timeline, and budget
Help customers select flooring products that fit their needs
Coordinate measurements, estimates, product selections, and project details
Prepare and present quotes and proposals
Follow up on open quotes and work to earn the sale
Manage customer projects from the initial conversation through installation
Maintain accurate customer, project, and follow-up information
Coordinate with our installation and operations teams to provide a positive customer experience
Your Showroom Is Your Home Base
This position is based at our Marshfield location and is primarily an in-office/showroom role
The showroom gives you a place to meet customers, manage projects, learn products, and collaborate with an experienced team—but your sales opportunities don't have to begin at the front door
When you're not actively assisting a showroom customer, we want you working your business: following up on quotes, reaching out to prospective accounts, reconnecting with previous customers, asking for referrals, scheduling appointments, and developing your pipeline
There may also be opportunities to attend networking events, visit customers, or participate in other business-development activities in the community, but the majority of your work will be based at the Marshfield location
Flooring experience isn't required. Sales initiative is.
We'll provide the product and industry training. We're looking for someone who brings the confidence, communication skills, and persistence needed to develop customers and close sales.
You may be a strong fit if you:
Have previous sales, business development, account management, or relationship-building experience
Are comfortable initiating conversations with prospective customers
Enjoy both helping customers and actively developing new business
Are confident using phone, email, and face-to-face communication to generate opportunities
Understand the importance of consistent follow-up
Are motivated to develop your own customer base and grow your sales
Can build relationships with homeowners, contractors, property managers, and business owners
Are organized and comfortable managing multiple customers and projects at different stages
Take ownership of your sales pipeline and results
Enjoy working independently while being part of a store team
Are comfortable learning and using technology to manage customer information, quotes, and follow-up
Experience in retail sales, B2B sales, account management, building materials, construction, property management, restoration, home improvement, real estate, business services, or another relationship-driven sales environment can translate well to this position.
Compensation
$50,000 - $80,000
