High-Performance In-Home Sales Role With Technical Execution

This is not an entry-level role. If you're not already:

  • Closing jobs in the home
  • Confident selling repairs and upgrades face-to-face
  • Able to perform the work yourself at a high level

This is not the role for you.

  • 1+ years' experience: $7,500 sign on bonus
  • 3+ years' experience: $10,000 sign on bonus

What This Role Really Is

This is a high-performance, in-home sales role with technical execution.

You will:

  • Walk into homes where customers already need service (NOT a door-to-door sales job)
  • Diagnose the problem
  • Present options confidently
  • Close the job on the spot
  • Then complete the work yourself

If you can't confidently do all five, you won't succeed here.

Our best techs:

  • Close 80%+ of opportunities
  • Consistently present options the customer actually needs
  • Earn 5-star reviews by delivering both service AND experience
  • Take ownership of their numbers, not blame the leads
  • Demonstrate integrity, communicate clearly, and execute cleanly

This location operates with expanded service hours to support increased capacity and customer demand. Team members may be scheduled for shifts from 6:00 AM to 4:00 PM or 12:00 PM to 10:00 PM, with assignments based on performance and seniority. The facility is open seven days a week, requiring flexibility in scheduling, including weekends.

What You'll Do (No Fluff)

  • Build trust fast with homeowners
  • Clearly explain problems, options, and pricing
  • Confidently ask for the sale and handle objections
  • Maximize every opportunity without being pushy

Execute

  • Replace springs, motors, rollers, and full systems
  • Install openers, keypads, and wiring
  • Ensure every job is done right the first time

Deliver

  • Create a 5-star customer experience on every job
  • Generate repeat and referral business
  • Represent A1 as a professional subject matter expert, not just a technician

What You'll Get

  • Uncapped earnings: $100K$300K+ (Top performers consistently exceed $200K)
  • Company vehicle + gas card
  • Tools provided
  • Full benefits (medical, dental, vision, 401k)
  • PTO + weekly pay
  • Paid training (for alignmentnot basics)
  • One thousand dollar bonus upon training completion

Who We Want

You are:

  • Currently working as a garage door technician
  • Already closing jobs and comfortable selling in the home
  • Able to clearly explain your sales process and close rate

Do Not Apply If:

  • You've never sold and closed your own jobs
  • You rely on others to sell while you install
  • You can't speak to your numbers (close rate, avg ticket, etc.)
  • You struggle with customer interaction
  • You want a predictable, low-pressure job

What We'll Ask You

Be ready to talk about:

  • Your close rate
  • Your average ticket size
  • Your sales process in the home

  • Your customer reviews / 5-star feedback
