Sales Representative – 1099 | $80K–$110K+ | Roofing Sales

The number one reason people walk away from commission sales before they start: they don't think anyone will actually teach them what to do. That concern is legitimate. Most companies hand you a territory and wish you luck.

We don't operate that way. When you join Premier, you're paired with a dedicated trainer. You go through structured classroom onboarding first — roofing fundamentals, insurance process, how the claim works from first knock to signed contract.

Then you shadow in the field. Then your trainer works alongside you until you've closed your first claims. The program is built around one outcome: getting you to a productive income as fast as possible.

Most reps close their first claim within the first week. By the end of year one, reps who complete training are earning in the $80K–$110K range. That's not a ceiling — it's where most people land when they do the work.

If you've never sold roofing before, that's the point. Nearly half our reps came from outside the industry entirely. Premier Roofing is a national storm restoration company — roofing, siding, and gutters — with 20+ years in business and 14 locations across the country.

We started with two people and a pickup truck. The model is simple: when storms damage homes, homeowners need someone they can trust to navigate the insurance process and restore their property. That's what our sales reps do.

This is a field role. You'll be in the neighborhoods, meeting homeowners, identifying damage, and guiding them through the insurance claim and restoration process. It's a consultative, relationship-driven career — not a call center, not a desk, not a quota sheet.

What You'Ll Do

Canvass storm-affected neighborhoods to identify damage and introduce Premier's services Meet with homeowners, inspect damage, and build enough trust to earn a second conversation Educate homeowners on their options and support them through the insurance process Schedule inspections and coordinate with our production team through project completion Participate in weekly training and ongoing skill development This is a 1099 independent contractor role. Your income is commission-based, tied directly to the projects you close. There is no salary.

To help you ramp up, we provide a startup draw of $500 per week for your first 8 weeks while you're building your pipeline. After that, your earnings reflect your production. Realistic earning range: $80,000–$110,000 in a productive year.

Top performers earn more. ) The upfront cost to get started is straightforward: you need a valid driver's license and reliable transportation. That's it.

Training We don't put people in the field unprepared. You'll go through paid classroom onboarding, field shadowing, and structured skill development in roofing fundamentals, insurance process, and sales technique. 70% of candidates in our research said hands-on training was extremely important to them before joining a company like this.

We built our program around that expectation. Schedule You control your schedule. Most reps work full-time hours during storm season and scale back in slower months.

Evenings and weekends are sometimes necessary depending on homeowner availability and market conditions — that's the reality of field sales. It's also why the flexibility to work around your life is built into the model. Coachable.

You don't need experience — you need to be willing to learn and apply feedback. Comfortable with people. This career is built on conversations.

Self-directed. There's no manager setting your daily schedule. You own your output.

Physically mobile. You'll be outside, in neighborhoods, sometimes on rooftops. A valid driver's license and reliable vehicle are required.

Resilient. Rejection is part of the job. So is the income that comes from pushing through it.

Sales experience is a plus. It's not a requirement. Why Premier 20+ years in business.
