About The Position

AKE Safety Equipment is hiring experienced outside sales representatives in agricultural areas nationwide to sell STOP-FYRE fire extinguishers directly to farmers. Representatives drive farm-to-farm within a protected territory and work in a 1099 independent-contractor outside-sales position. Compensation is 100% straight commission, with significant weekly performance bonuses and uncapped earning potential. The company reports average representative earnings of $90,816 and top-performer earnings above $200,000 annually. No fees are charged to salespeople, and representatives do not purchase products from the company to resell.

This opportunity is suited to independent, self-motivated salespeople who want to control their schedule and income while receiving team support. Advancement is available to representatives who consistently achieve their goals. Candidates selected by the company’s committee proceed through a one-on-one phone interview and may then be invited to a virtual in-person interview with the VP of Sales.
