About the Role
Join an award-winning organization where any door you open can lead to a large-scale project with a new key client. FASTSIGNS Conroe is a top-performing center in a network of nearly 800 franchise locations. We're looking for an experienced sign industry sales professional who knows the industry, knows how to create opportunities, and enjoys turning first-time projects into long-term customer relationships.
The Ideal Candidate
Sign Industry Sales Experience. Three years of direct sign industry sales experience is required. Five or more years preferred. Experience at FASTSIGNS, Signarama, or a comparable full-service sign shop is strongly preferred.
Proven Self-Starter. You can show how you opened new accounts, won the first job, and grew the relationship. You make time for prospecting even when business is busy.
Practical Sign Knowledge. You can walk a site, ask the right questions, and recommend a solution that fits the customer's needs, budget, and timeline.
Strong Follow-Through. You keep your CRM current, set a date for the next step, and follow up as promised. You're comfortable reviewing outreach, pipeline, and results with your manager.
Key Responsibilities
Build Your Own Pipeline. Research target businesses, identify decision-makers, and use calls, emails, visits, and referrals to start conversations.
Develop Accounts. Look beyond the first order. Find out who buys signage, what other locations or departments need, and what projects are coming up. Turn small jobs into opportunities for repeat business.
Sell and Close Projects. Lead customer conversations and site visits, scope the work, and coordinate pricing and proposals. Follow up on estimates, work through objections, and ask for the business.
Own Your Activity and Results. Block time each week for prospecting and estimate follow-up. Track outreach, opportunities, and utilize the CRM for next steps. Come to pipeline reviews ready to discuss what moved, what's stuck, and what's next.
