You own a defined territory in Chicago and run the full sales cycle yourself: you find restaurants, meet owners in person, run demos, close, and stay with the account until it is live. Your pipeline is yours. Many of the restaurants you meet already run Toast, Square or Clover, so a big part of the job is showing owners why switching is worth it and timing the conversation to their contract.
What You'll Focus On
- Prospect your territory in person and by phone: new openings, restaurants on legacy systems, and Toast, Square and Clover customers approaching contract renewal
- Run discovery and product demos with owners and general managers
- Build proposals, model processing rates and total cost against the restaurant’s current system, and close
- Hand off cleanly to onboarding and stay involved until the restaurant is live
- Ask every new customer for referrals and build relationships with local suppliers, associations and partners
- Keep your pipeline and activity up to date in our CRM
What You Bring
- 1+ years of quota-carrying, full-cycle B2B sales; restaurant POS or payments experience (Toast, Square, Clover, SpotOn, Lightspeed, ISO/merchant services) strongly preferred
- A track record of hitting or beating quota, with numbers you can walk us through
- Comfortable walking into restaurants and starting conversations with owners
- Strong spoken and written English; a second language is a plus
- Self-directed and organized enough to run your own territory
- Valid driver’s license and reliable transportation
What We Offer
- Guaranteed commission draw during your first 3 months while you ramp
- A clear path from Territory AE to Senior AE to Sales Manager
- Hands-on training on the product, the restaurant business and competitive selling
- A fair compensation package
- Medical, dental, and vision insurance
- 401(k)
- 100% employer-paid Short-Term Disability (STD)
- 100% employer-paid Life Insurance and option for additional employee-paid Life Insurance
- 100% employer-paid Accidental Death and Dismemberment (AD&D) Insurance and option for additional employee-paid AD&D Insurance
- Company holidays
- Birthday off
- Paid Parental Leave
- Flexible Paid Time Off (PTO)
- Employee Assistance Program (EAP)
- Fuel reimbursement
The salary for this role is $50,000-$80,000 plus sales commission, depending on experience.
