WOW CUSTOMERS & ROCK THE SALES GAME: TEES, HATS, STICKERS & MORE
THE OPPORTUNITY:At EMI-TGT, we create travel-inspired products that celebrate life's best moments. From iconic stickers and cozy hoodies to bold hats and high-quality tees, our goods tell a story-and we want you to help retailers share it.
We're on the hunt for an Independent Rep to represent our growing brand in Western New York. This 1099 role is ideal for a self-motivated sales pro who values flexibility, thrives on relationship building, and doesn't mind traveling to connect with retailers and close deals.
You'll work directly with our National Sales Manager-but you're in charge of your own schedule. From boutiques and resort shops to hotels and outfitters, you'll help businesses discover the kind of merch their customers love.
If you're driven, personable, and passionate about connecting people with cool products, let's talk.
TERRITORY: Georgia. The ideal candidate would live near Atlanta, but seriously, if you live anywhere in Georgia & this opportunity speaks to you, let's talk.
SCHEDULE & PAY: You decide. Hit the road, sell, and then take time for YOU. Sell more = earn more.
