Competitive? Coachable? Good With People?
You might be surprised how well that translates to sales.
Weather is growing our NYC events team and looking for motivated people who enjoy competition, communication, teamwork, and getting better at what they do.
You'll represent established brands and nonprofit partners at pop-up events, live activations, and community campaigns throughout NYC, learning how to turn strong people skills into measurable sales results.
We don't expect you to arrive knowing how to sell. We do expect you to be willing to learn, take coaching, practice, and improve.
If you've played competitive sports, worked in hospitality or customer service, been involved in campus organizations, or simply thrive in environments where effort and results are noticed, that mindset can translate well here.
Learn the Playbook. Then Make It Your Own.
Your first few weeks are about learning the fundamentals: how to approach people, communicate value, handle questions, build confidence, and close.
From there, you'll work toward clear individual and team goals while getting regular coaching on your performance.
You'll:
- Represent brands and campaigns at live events across NYC
- Start conversations with new people and quickly build rapport
- Learn practical face-to-face sales and closing techniques
- Generate customers, supporters, leads, and sales
- Track your results and identify where you can improve
- Work alongside teammates who are pursuing the same goals
- Learn from experienced team leaders through hands-on coaching
- Take on leadership responsibilities as your skills and results develop
Why Athletes Tend to Get It
Sales and sports have more in common than people think.
You practice. You get feedback. You adjust. You perform. You keep score.
A bad interaction doesn't ruin your day—you move on to the next one. A strong week gives you a new standard to beat. And improvement comes from repetition, coaching, and consistency rather than waiting around for experience to happen.
That's the kind of mentality we're looking for.
This Could Be a Fit If You...
- Like having goals you can actually measure
- Enjoy competition without losing the team mentality
- Respond well to coaching and feedback
- Have the confidence—or willingness—to approach new people
- Want your performance to influence what you earn
- Get bored doing exactly the same thing every day
- Want to develop sales and leadership skills early in your career
- Are looking for more than another line on your résumé
No previous sales experience is required.
