National Strategic Account Sales Representative 

Position National Large Account Sales Representative  
Location Raining Rose, Inc.  
Description

Who you are: You’re an industry rising star who thrives on growth, relationships and crushing goals. You know how to get in the door with large and complex accounts – and then turn those relationships into ever-expanding opportunities. You’re creative, you’re tenacious, and you know how to work well in a fast-paced team. You are independent, organized, accountable and you manage your time well. You understand how selling is evolving, and you know how to advocate for any brand you work for across multiple methods (social, presentation, online content, in-person).

What you’re looking for: You’ve demonstrated success in promotional products sales, possibly for a supplier or services provider. You’ve built relationships in the industry. You’re looking for a growing company where you can make your mark and write your own ticket. You’re genuinely curious about personal care, wellness, manufacturing, and companies who are focusing on sustainability.

About Us: We are a fast-growing manufacturer and supplier of personal care promotional products, including lip balm, sunscreen, hand sanitizer, and lotion. We manufacture for nationally known retail brands also, and we bring that knowledge to the promotional world. We don’t have a broad catalog – we are the type of company that prioritizes quality over quantity, and we are known for it. Our team is changing, and you’ll work alongside an inside sales team, customer service team, marketing and graphics team, and many others who support our sales in the operations areas.
