Outside Sales Representative
About The Position
NFIB is hiring an Outside Sales Representative to drive new membership growth through prospecting, territory management, and face-to-face sales. This field-based B2B role involves meeting directly with small business owners, presenting NFIB’s advocacy mission and membership benefits, identifying business needs, handling objections, and enrolling new members. This is a hunter/closer role with a structured sales process and an assumptive one-call close. There is no account management after the sale, so the representative can focus on prospecting, selling, and growing membership. The role offers an uncapped, 100% commission compensation plan, performance-based training pay, weekly commission payments, and monthly and quarterly bonuses. NFIB also provides sales training and a flexible, self-directed work environment.
