About You

Job Opportunity: Customer-Focused Sales Professional

We’re seeking individuals who have a passion for meeting customer needs and helping them make informed decisions. While prior sales experience is beneficial, it’s not a strict requirement. If your idea of a "salesperson" doesn’t resonate with your personality, that’s okay—we encourage you to apply!

At its core, sales is about understanding and meeting customer needs. While it can be challenging, it’s not the stereotype you might imagine. We’re here to support you every step of the way—we won’t just throw you to the wolves.

For Experienced Sales Professionals:

We value your expertise and the skills you bring to the table. Let’s explore how your experience aligns with our goals. Success in this role will require common sense, strong problem-solving skills, and a dedication to customer satisfaction.

For Problem Solvers and Career Seekers:

Are you someone who enjoys analyzing situations, identifying needs, and designing effective solutions? Are you looking for more than just a job—a career with long-term learning opportunities in an ever-evolving industry? If so, we’d love to hear from you!

For Outside Sales Professionals Seeking Stability:

If you’re an outside salesperson tired of commission-only or cold-call-focused roles, this could be the perfect fit. In this position, you’ll have the chance to connect with customers, build relationships, and provide ongoing sales and service in a supportive, family-oriented business environment.

Why Join Us?

• Stability and long-term growth potential
• A family-oriented company culture
• Opportunities to learn and grow in a rapidly evolving industry

Whether you’re experienced in sales, a natural problem solver, or ready to begin a rewarding career, we invite you to apply and explore how you can make an impact with us.

What our Team/Company Offers to You:

We are truly a team. We are a bit old fashioned in that our owners care about family and stability and growth. The owners have their sleeves rolled up every day and they love to HAVE FUN. We are aggressive and constantly changing to align ourselves with the most advanced laundry and housekeeping chemical brands and technology. Based in the backdrop of the Great Smokey Mountains, we also understand the importance of environmentally conscience industries - our advanced technology allows our products to be top-notch and eco-friendly. Come visit as part of our application process and you will learn we truly have Culture!

Educational / Learning Compensation for You:

If you become a successful salesperson of laundry chemicals, you can go anywhere in the continental United States and have a job the next day, because this is a field with few solid salespeople who also have the knowledge to come up with solutions and get them on paper quickly to present. We will teach you to do this if you are open minded and I hope you stay forever, but if you don’t, and if we leave on good terms…we will certainly provide you a recommendation if you want to move elsewhere. In this business, if a great salesperson decides to become a “free agent”, then everybody in the industry from Oregon to Maine hears about it. All of a sudden that person’s phone will be ringing off the wall of other companies trying to get him. (and we know that phones are no longer attached to a wall!)

Our definition of sales includes: A repetitive yet an "every day is different" routine. Get a list of the hotels. Get a list of the hospitals. Get a list of nursing homes for a given geography.

LSOT will help you build this list with existing and potential customers. Then, we plan a route, put a strategy in place and start the process. Building a strong customer list (funnel) is crucial, its blue collar selling most of the time. Solve problems. Find more problems, solve them. Build a great network of referrals.

Time and Territory Management is hard for most of us, but this discipline will yield great results. We will help you. You'll go into the area you're working that day. You'll visit our existing customers and while you're there, you will very professionally ask for referrals and (you will have earned them because of your great follow up and execution on your work with that client) continue to build your list and influence in the market. Then you will stop in to see potential customers who you have identified as potential people you can help. Sometimes you will have scheduled (by phone or text or email) appointments with them.

Sometimes you will drop in and they may or may not have time right then. You are friendly and ask pointed questions to identify potential needs and problems. Sometimes the problems are not even going to require things that we sell (ice machines, HVAC, contractor needs, etc) …but you help with that anyway if it doesn’t take too much time. Again……Solve Problems.

To the right Person, we offer:

• Competitive base salary commensurate with experience, plus monthly commissions on sales.
• Great educational and networking opportunities in the Commercial Laundry, Hospitality and Healthcare industries.
• Solid brands with a client and community reputation that leads to referrals and trust
• Paid holidays (all major)
• Paid 1 week vacation as well as 5 personal days used at your discretion
• 401K Retirement Benefits
• Vehicle, cell phone, computer and all required tools provided
• Family atmosphere and professional development opportunities to grow your skills
• Opportunity to make an Impact on People, and to grow Personally

This is one of those “tough jobs that you will love” that can pay very well with longer term stability
