About The Position

Join the Voice of Small Business: Elite Outside Sales Advocate. Do you want a career that impacts your community, your state, and our nation? NFIB is looking for the rare professional who combines the heart of a servant-leader with the drive of a high-stakes closer. Our most successful team members are more than sales reps—they are former business owners, military instructors, community leaders...those who understand that small business is the backbone of the American dream. Think of this as a hybrid work environment where you're not tied to an office location. Instead, your office is the work area you serve. Approximately 95% of your time will be spent in the field within your local market, meeting face-to-face with small business owners and growing NFIB membership.

Requirements

• Entrepreneurial Spirit: You’ve owned a business, run a department, or managed a territory as if it were your own. You take full accountability for your results.

• Coach Mentality: You value continuous improvement. You are a fast learner who thrives on mastering a proven, structured sales model.
• Mission-Driven: You aren't just selling a membership; you are growing the Voice of Small Business. As they are busy running their business, we are in Washington, D.C., the state capitals, and in the courts fighting to protect them.
• Professional Perseverance: You see "no" as a step toward "yes" and thrive under pressure.
• Strategic Adaptability: You are quick-witted and able to overcome objections with ease.
• Transferable Excellence: We value results over specific resumes. Whether your background is in Sales, Military Leadership, Education, Small Business Ownership, or just out of college - if you have the drive, we want to talk to you.
• Technical Savvy: Intermediate skills to manage our digital sales tools.

• Prospecting: Conduct in-person cold calls to meet small business owners (no appointment setting).
