EXPERIENCED RETAIL SALES PROFESSIONAL – PART-TIME

$15.00–$15.50/HOUR BASE PAY

+ PERFORMANCE BONUSES & SALES INCENTIVES

Millersville & Severna Park, Maryland

Part-Time | Approximately 12–24 Hours Per Week

WE ARE BUILDING A STRONG SALES TEAM.

We are two very small, new specialty retail stores looking for EXPERIENCED RETAIL SALES professionals who can help take our businesses to the next level.

This is NOT a cashier position.

We are looking for confident, motivated SALES professionals who know how to actively engage customers, identify their needs, make strong product recommendations, upsell and cross-sell effectively, maximize sales opportunities, build lasting customer relationships, and DRIVE SALES.

The right person understands that exceptional RETAIL SALES is about much more than processing a transaction. It is about creating an outstanding customer experience, recognizing opportunities, increasing transaction value, building repeat business, and contributing directly to the growth of the stores.

We don't need someone simply to cover a shift.

We need SALES professionals who want to help GROW the businesses.

COMPENSATION

• $15.00–$15.50/hour BASE PAY
• PERFORMANCE BONUSES & SALES INCENTIVES in addition to hourly pay
• Opportunity to earn additional compensation based on SALES performance and results

Strong performance matters here — and it will be recognized and rewarded.

RETAIL SALES EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED.

A MINIMUM OF 3 YEARS OF DIRECT RETAIL SALES EXPERIENCE IS REQUIRED TO BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS POSITION.

If you do not have at least 3 years of RETAIL SALES EXPERIENCE, please do not apply.

APPLICATIONS THAT DO NOT MEET THIS EXPERIENCE REQUIREMENT WILL NOT BE CONSIDERED.

We are specifically looking for candidates with demonstrated RETAIL SALES EXPERIENCE in:

• Proactively approaching and engaging customers
• Turning customer traffic into SALES
• Identifying customer needs and SALES opportunities
• Making confident, knowledgeable product recommendations
• Upselling and cross-selling
• Creating appropriate add-on SALES
• Increasing average transaction value
• Closing SALES
• Building customer relationships
• Developing repeat business and customer loyalty
• Working toward SALES goals and being accountable for results
• Taking initiative and working independently

WHAT WE EXPECT FROM OUR SALES TEAM

Every customer who enters the store should be acknowledged and actively engaged.

You must be comfortable getting out from behind the counter, approaching customers on the sales floor, starting conversations, asking questions, identifying needs, discussing products confidently, making recommendations, and recognizing additional SALES opportunities.

Strong product knowledge is essential. You will be expected to learn our products thoroughly so you can confidently answer questions, explain products, make meaningful recommendations, and SELL.

We want SALES professionals who understand how to build a sale — not simply process one.

We also expect our SALES team to think beyond today's transaction. Building these businesses means developing relationships, creating repeat customers, earning referrals and giving people a reason to come back.

Your SALES performance will have a direct impact on the growth of these stores.

WHO WILL SUCCEED HERE

You may be a great fit if you:

• Have at least 3 years of proven RETAIL SALES EXPERIENCE
• Genuinely enjoy SELLING
• Are naturally outgoing and comfortable initiating customer conversations
• Know how to turn customer engagement into SALES
• Are confident with upselling, cross-selling and add-on SALES
• Know how to maximize SALES opportunities without being pushy
• Are motivated by SALES goals, results, bonuses and incentives
• Take ownership of your individual SALES performance
• Are excellent at developing customer relationships
• Understand the value of repeat customers and customer loyalty
• Are energetic, dependable, professional and self-motivated
• Take initiative without needing constant direction
• Are comfortable working independently in a very small retail environment
• Are excited by the opportunity to help take two new specialty retail businesses to the next level

SCHEDULE

Part-time, approximately 12–24 hours per week.

Availability must include a combination of weekday and weekend shifts.

If you have proven RETAIL SALES EXPERIENCE, know how to SELL, know how to build customer relationships and repeat business, and want the opportunity to help take two new specialty retail stores to the next level, we want to hear from you.
