Job Description Job Description
Pay: $45,000 - $156,000 per year (base + draw + commission)
Hey storm sales pros - and anyone tired of selling for a company that treats you like a number.
I'm Steve, Sales Manager at Pete's Builders. Two years ago I was making $38K managing a restaurant. Last year I made six figures selling roofs. I'm not special - I got handed a system that works, and now I'm hiring the next three people to hand it to.
Why this sale is different
After a hailstorm, insurance pays for the roof; the homeowner just pays their deductible. You're not asking anyone to spend $18,000 - you're helping them collect on a policy they already pay for. Last summer's hail across our Cheyenne area left thousands of damaged roofs, and most homeowners don't know they qualify. That's the job.
The money - open books, real numbers
- Average commission: $1,800+ per job
- First-year reps typically earn $45K-$70K
- Average rep here: $72K. Top rep last year: $156K
- At your interview, we show you actual commission statements
Pay your way
We offer both W-2 (base + draw + commission) and 1099 (straight commission) plans - we'll walk you through which fits you at the interview. W-2 reps get a paycheck while they ramp plus health benefits eligibility. Either way: company truck or vehicle allowance and a gas card.
What else we provide
- Company-generated leads - storm data plus canvassing support. No cold-calling a phone book.
- Paid 2-week training: claims, adjuster meetings, inspections. We teach the roof - you bring the work ethic.
- A manager who walks your first roofs and first adjuster meetings with you
Where it goes

"What about winter?"
Storm season (April-Sept) is when the big checks land. October-March we run gutters, water-damage work, and a retail re-roof division. Reps earn year-round, and the draw plan smooths your income.
The ask
Knock doors, inspect roofs (ladder included - we train you), meet adjusters, walk homeowners through claims. Evenings and Saturdays in storm season. Real work. Pays like it.
