Join to apply for the
Entry‑Level Sales Apprenticeship (Leadership Track) (Danville)
role at
Forge Marketing .
Base pay range:
Entry‑Level Sales Apprenticeship (Leadership Track) .
Who This Is For Early‑career people who want a long‑term sales path, not just a summer job. You might be coming from retail, fast food, serving, warehouse/blue‑collar work, customer service, or you skipped/left college and want a real career.
What You’ll Do
Go door‑to‑door in assigned neighborhoods introducing homeowners to our pest control services.
Use a proven script to present, handle objections, and close new customers.
Work 6 days per week during the summer ramp, typically 8‑10 hours per day, mostly on your feet and outdoors.
Attend daily morning training and role‑plays with your team lead.
After ramp: run your own territory as an ongoing rep, hitting weekly and monthly sales quotas agreed with your manager.
Track your activity and results like a business: doors, conversations, closes, revenue, and commissions.
Career Path & Leadership Track This role is designed as a starting point in a sales career, not a one‑off summer.
Typical Progression (timelines Depend On Performance)
Months 0–3: New Rep – learn the system, hit ramp quotas, prove you can produce and show up.
Months 4–12: Senior Rep – higher personal production targets, helpshadow/train new hires.
12+ months: Team Lead – run morning trainings, coach a small team, and earn overrides on your reps’ sales.
Top performers can eventually run a full team/office with significant override potential.
Requirements (read Before Applying)
At least 18 by May 1 and legally authorized to work in the U.S.
Available full‑time for the Summer 2026 ramp (approx. May–August, 6 days/week).
Willing to relocate and live in shared housing with teammates during ramp.
Comfortable with commission‑only pay, weekly/monthly quotas, and long days outdoors.
Intend to treat this as a career track (staying beyond summer) if both sides are happy with performance.
Reliable, coachable, and able to stick with a hard thing for the entire ramp period.
Not a Fit If You
Need guaranteed hourly pay.
Can’t relocate or live with teammates.
Only want a short‑term internship or side gig.
How To Apply
Your current or most recent job and how long you’ve worked there.
Why you want a long‑term sales career instead of “just a job”.
Why you believe you can hit quotas and stick out a full summer ramp in door‑to‑door sales.
