Job DescriptionJob Description
Field Sales & Marketing Representative (Tampa Bay)
$2,000+ per week base opportunity
1099 | Tampa / St. Pete + surrounding areas | Start Immediately
Flexible field schedule | Typically 11am–sunset | Mon–Fri or Tue–Sat (Saturday optional)
Tampa Bay electricity bills keep climbing, and homeowners want a smarter option — without the pushy “solar rep” experience. Empire Energy is expanding locally, and we already have strong solar specialists who handle the actual consult and close.
We’re hiring Field Sales & Marketing Representatives to be the friendly first point of contact: meet homeowners, share simple info, offer incentives, and book virtual or in-home appointments. This is a marketing-first role. You are not quoting pricing, not battling objections, and not closing deals at the door.
We’ll keep it old school: we recruit the smile and train the skills. If you’re coachable, can follow directions, and show up with a good attitude, you can learn fast and grow.
Guaranteed Base Opportunity (Not Commission-Only)
This is NOT a commission-only role.
Our pay model includes a $2,000+ per week base opportunity for hitting the basic performance quota (we’ll cover the exact details during the application process). On top of that, there are bonuses tied to performance and closed projects.
We’re selective — we’re only bringing on a small group of people who fit the culture and standards.
Why We Start at 11am (On Purpose)
Most field roles try to own your whole day. We don’t.
We start at 11am so you can:
Work out in the morningHandle life stuff in the morningsBe present with familyStart your day with energy instead of rushing
Then we run the field shift through sunset, when homeowners are actually home.
What You’ll Do
Work in the field across
Tampa Bay neighborhoods (team-based — not alone)Knock doors professionally and introduce yourself with a short, respectful scriptHand out flyers and simple info (no long pitch)Offer a thank-you incentive voucher (gift delivered after verified appointment rules)Collect basic info when appropriate (name/phone/email)Book virtual or in-home appointments for our solar specialist to complete the presentationTrack your activity in a door-knocking app (doors, conversations, notes, appointments)Move on quickly if someone isn’t interested — no pressure, no arguing
What You Will NOT Do
You will NOT close solar at the doorYou will NOT quote pricing or negotiateYou will NOT pressure uninterested homeownersYou will NOT be expected to be a solar expertYou will NOT be thrown out there alone with no support
Our “Gift + Opinion” Model (Why People Say Yes)
We run a different approach. Homeowners can receive thank-you gifts in exchange for their time and opinion after completing a presentation with our solar specialist — even if they don’t buy. Incentives vary by promotion and may include gift cards, local experience incentives, and tickets to sports games.
We do it professionally: we use voucher/gift-receipt language at the door; gifts are delivered after verification. The whole experience is respectful and low-pressure — that’s the point.
Who This Is For
No experience needed — learn while you growPositive, coachable, motivated attitudeCan follow directions and work a simple systemProfessional appearance (clean, sharp, presentable)Comfortable talking to strangers like a normal humanAble to walk outdoors for extended periodsReliable transportationCompetitive with yourself — you like improving
Growth Opportunity
Top performers can grow into events (farmers markets, trade shows, home shows), leadership, and optional sales paths if you want to level up.
