Entry-Level Field Sales Representative - Solar & Roofing

$65,000–$100,000+ Target First-Year Compensation

$45,000–$50,000 Annualized Base + Uncapped Commission

BUILD A SIX-FIGURE CAREER IN ROOFING AND RESIDENTIAL ENERGY

Phoenix Exteriors is looking for ambitious, entry-level professionals who want to build a serious career in outside sales.

Founded in 2007, Phoenix Exteriors is a Chicagoland leader in Tesla Solar Roof, solar panels, Powerwall battery storage, insurance-claim roofing, and premium exterior remodeling. We also install Tesla Wall Connectors, SPAN smart electrical panels, and specialty roofing systems from DaVinci, Brava, CertainTeed, and other leading manufacturers.

Very few companies can evaluate and sell the entire home—from the roof and storm damage to solar, battery storage, EV charging, and electrical infrastructure. That makes our company different - and creates an unusually valuable career opportunity for the right person.

No roofing, solar, or sales experience is required. We will train you.

THE OPPORTUNITY

You will begin as a Field Sales Development Representative, working assigned neighborhoods, introducing homeowners to Phoenix, identifying potential opportunities, and setting qualified appointments.

As your knowledge and performance grow, you can advance into an Energy & Exteriors Consultant position, where you will inspect properties, present solutions, and close your own projects.

This is not intended to be a permanent appointment-setting position. It is the starting point for developing future six-figure sales professionals.

COMPENSATION AND BENEFITS

• $45,000–$50,000 annualized base compensation, paid hourly

• Overtime eligibility

• Generous, uncapped performance commissions

• Target first-year total compensation of $65,000–$100,000+

• Six-figure earning potential following advancement

• Health-benefit eligibility

• Mileage reimbursement or gas support according to company policy

• Paid sales and technical training

• Company-provided technology, CRM access, territories, and marketing materials

Individual earnings depend on performance, qualified appointments, eligible project sales, collected revenue, project-margin requirements, and continued employment.

WHAT YOU WILL DO

This is an active, field-based position - not a desk job.

You will:

• Work professionally selected and mapped neighborhoods

• Introduce Phoenix Exteriors to homeowners through face-to-face outreach

• Follow up in neighborhoods reached through our direct-mail campaigns

• Identify possible roofing, storm-damage, solar, battery, and electrical opportunities

• Set qualified appointments for experienced Energy & Exteriors Consultants

• Track activity and homeowner information in our CRM

• Attend required weekly sales and technical training

• Work consistent afternoon and early-evening field hours when homeowners are available

• Develop the knowledge necessary to inspect properties and close your own projects

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

Our training program will teach you how to:

• Identify potential roofing and exterior storm damage

• Understand the residential insurance-restoration process

• Evaluate whether a home may be a good candidate for solar

• Understand Tesla solar panels, Solar Roof, and Powerwall storage

• Introduce Tesla Wall Connectors and SPAN smart electrical panels

• Recognize premium roofing opportunities involving DaVinci and Brava

• Conduct professional neighborhood outreach and homeowner follow-up

• Read a home as a complete roofing, energy, and electrical system

• Progress from generating opportunities to presenting and closing projects

YOUR CAREER PATH

Representatives who consistently meet the company’s activity, appointment, professionalism, training, and production standards may become eligible for:

• Advancement into an Energy & Exteriors Consultant position

• The opportunity to run and close their own appointments

• Higher project-based commissions

• A company vehicle, subject to performance, driving eligibility, company policy, and business needs

• Long-term earning potential of $150,000–$300,000+ for proven top performers

• Future leadership and sales-management opportunities

Advancement is earned through documented performance, reliability, product knowledge, professionalism, and the ability to represent Phoenix properly in the field.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR

You may be a strong fit if you are:

• Ambitious and interested in building a professional sales career

• Comfortable starting conversations with people you have never met

• Competitive, resilient, and not discouraged by hearing “no”

• Coachable and willing to follow a proven daily process

• Reliable and willing to work consistent field hours

• Comfortable working outdoors and walking neighborhoods

• Interested in Tesla products, renewable energy, construction, roofing, or technology

• Organized enough to document activity and follow up consistently

• Motivated by both personal development and performance-based income

Experience in sales, hospitality, athletics, military service, automotive, construction, customer service, or other competitive environments is helpful—but not required.

REQUIREMENTS

• Valid driver’s license

• Acceptable driving record

• Reliable personal transportation during the initial development period

• Ability to pass applicable pre-employment screening

• Ability to walk neighborhoods and work outdoors for extended periods

• Availability during designated afternoon and early-evening field hours

• Commitment to paid training and documented performance expectations

WHY PHOENIX?

We are not hiring people to sell one ordinary product.

We are developing professionals who can eventually understand and sell roofing, insurance restoration, solar panels, Tesla Solar Roof, Powerwall battery storage, EV charging, smart electrical panels, and premium exterior systems.

That knowledge takes time to develop—which is why we invest in training, provide base compensation while you learn, and offer a defined path toward a six-figure sales career.
