Junior Field Sales Representative
The outside sales newcomer — learning to sell in person across a territory.
What it's like to be a Junior Field Sales Representative
As a Junior Field Sales Rep, you're developing skills in territory-based outside sales. You visit customers and prospects in person, presenting products or services and working to close business.
Your day involves customer visits, prospect calls, product presentations, and sales follow-up. You work in the field, managing your schedule to cover your territory effectively. You're building experience in face-to-face selling.
The work requires self-direction and relationship skills. Field sales means working independently much of the time, managing your own schedule while hitting activity and sales targets. Junior reps develop these skills while learning their territory and customers. The people who succeed here are self-motivated, comfortable with rejection, and enjoy the variety of field work.
