Outside Sales Intern
Are you a graduating senior or recent college graduate looking to build a successful career in sales? Do you enjoy meeting new people, solving problems, and challenging yourself to achieve ambitious goals?
We are seeking 1-2 motivated, outgoing, and driven individuals to join our team as Outside Sales Interns. This paid internship provides hands-on training alongside a proven sales professional, giving you real-world experience in business-to-business (B2B) sales within the rapidly growing workplace refreshment industry, including Office Coffee Service (OCS), Vending Solutions, Pantry Services, and Micro Markets.
This is not a desk job. You'll be in the field learning how to identify opportunities, build relationships, generate leads, conduct sales presentations, and close new business.
While the internship pay is $20/hr, successful interns may be offered a full-time sales position upon completion of the program, including comprehensive benefits and the opportunity to earn $100,000+ in your first year through a combination of salary, commissions, and performance incentives. Our newest sales rep is already on pace to earn this in 2026.
Note: We are looking for the right individual to add to our sales team that can enhance the current growth of our company. We have not had a sales rep leave our company over the past few years - this is not a turn and burn sales environment.
