Red Door Three designs, builds, and manages trade show exhibits for clients across the United States. Our work spans custom builds, portable systems, show-services management, installation and dismantle coordination, permanent installations, and exhibit storage. We have built a national reputation on design quality, reliable execution, and a boutique client experience that larger competitors cannot match. We grow intentionally – by earning the next show with the clients we already serve and by adding new clients who value the same level of care.

Red Door Three is a division of Trade Show Savvy LLC. Our DFW location at 1020 Mustang Drive in Grapevine sits minutes from one of the busiest airline hubs in the country. Trade shows happen in every major U.S. city, and DFW gives our team direct flights to almost all of them – meaning more time on show floors and in front of clients, and less time connecting through other airports.

As we expand sales capacity, this role is a key part of how we grow over the next several years.

We are hiring a Sales Executive to drive new business and expand existing client relationships. We work with exhibitors at every stage of their program – from first-time portable buyers to multi-show custom build clients. Many of our best client relationships started with a single portable exhibit and grew into full programs spanning custom builds, show services, storage, and I&D. That growth happens because we earn it, show by show.

Your job is to find clients who are ready to be taken care of at that level, start the relationship right, and build it from there.

This role owns the full arc – from the first cold call to the signed contract to the fifth renewal. The person who prospects is the person who closes, manages the account, and shows up on the show floor. We don't split that function, and we don't want to. The relationship starts before the first meeting, and the candidate who understands that is the one we're looking for.

In practice that means you will build target lists, prospect consistently across multiple channels, qualify and close new business, and manage and grow your assigned accounts over time – adding new lines of work, deepening engagement, and protecting recurring storage and services revenue. You are the face of Red Door Three to your clients from first contact through the show floor, and you stay their primary relationship throughout.

If you're currently prospecting at a large exhibit house – building lists, working the phones, qualifying leads – and watching someone else close your deals, manage your clients, and collect commission on relationships you started, this posting is worth reading carefully.

At Red Door Three, the person who makes the first call owns the client. You close the deal.…
