This is not a training job. We're looking for someone who already knows how to knock a door and have a real conversation with a homeowner. You work the neighborhoods our crews are already in, find the tree work people have been putting off and set up the estimate. $40K a year, or 10% commission on the jobs you bring in if you'd rather bet on yourself.

The role

You're out in KC metro neighborhoods talking to homeowners about their trees. Almost everybody has a limb over the driveway or a dead tree in the back they've been meaning to deal with for two years. Your job is to find those people and get them on the calendar for an estimate. You don't price the work and you never touch a saw. You find the opportunity and hand it off clean.

What you'll do

Work the streets our crews are already on

When a crew is on a block with the bucket truck out, the neighbors are the warmest doors in the metro. You're not cold-knocking a random town with nothing behind you.

Read a property and start the conversation

Spot the dead limb over the driveway before you knock. Knowing what to point at is the difference between a real conversation and a door closing.

Book estimates that actually hold

Get the name, the number and a time that sticks. A booked estimate the homeowner forgets about helps nobody, including your commission.

Run your own follow-up

Which houses, who was interested, who said come back after the holidays. Nobody is going to chase your pipeline for you, and that is where a lot of the money is.

Represent the company at the door

You're the first person a homeowner meets. How you handle that door decides whether they trust the estimate that follows.

What we're looking for

We'd rather pay more for someone who already has this skill than train someone who doesn't. Tree knowledge you can pick up. Knowing how to talk to people at their front door is the part we can't teach you.

Real door-to-door or sales experience

Home services, solar, pest, security, roofing, retail closing, anything where you had to open a conversation and ask for the business.

Genuinely good with people

Homeowners can tell in about four seconds whether they like you. That instinct is most of this job and either you have it or you don't.

You manage yourself

Nobody is riding along behind you counting doors. You set your day, you work it, and the numbers show whether you did.

You keep going after a no

You already know most doors are a no. If that still stings after a few years in sales, this pace will wear you out.

A way to get around the metro

You'll be moving between neighborhoods on both sides of the state line, so a reliable way to get there matters.

You'd rather be outside

If sitting at a desk under fluorescent lights all day sounds miserable to you, this is the opposite of that.

What you get

$40K a year, or 10% commission

Take the salary if you want the floor, or take 10% of the jobs you bring in if you'd rather bet on yourself. We'll walk through both on the first call and you pick.

No cap on the commission side

Tree jobs are not small tickets. Ten percent of a good week is real money, and nobody here is going to cut your territory because you had a strong month.

Warm territory, not a phone book

You work the streets our crews are already on. The trucks, the chipper and the neighbor's finished job are doing half the selling before you knock.

Full-time, year-round

Storm season, summer trimming, winter removals. The phone rings here all year, so your income doesn't dry up in January.

Nobody micromanaging you

You're trusted to run your own day. Bring in the work and how you got there is your business.

A family-owned crew

Small company, owner answers his own phone. You'll know everybody's name in the first week and your work gets noticed.
