Launch Your Career Through Sales

At Traffic, we believe every successful career starts with learning how to communicate, build relationships, solve problems, and create value for others.

That's why we don't treat this as "just another sales job."

Whether you're looking to build a long-term career in sales and leadership, gain real-world business experience before graduate school, strengthen your resume before transitioning into another industry, or simply develop skills that will make you more valuable in any profession, this opportunity is designed to accelerate your growth.

Sales teaches you how to confidently communicate, influence decisions, manage relationships, think strategically, and perform under pressure—skills that transfer into virtually every career path, from business and marketing to law, healthcare, entrepreneurship, finance, and nonprofit leadership.

If you're willing to work hard, stay coachable, and challenge yourself, we'll provide the training, mentorship, and opportunities to help you grow.

Traffic is a sales and marketing firm specializing in face-to-face customer acquisition, community outreach, and experiential campaigns.

We partner with nationally recognized nonprofit organizations and help them grow support through direct, in-person conversations. In a world full of digital advertising and automated messages, we believe genuine human interaction still creates the strongest results.

Our people are the reason we grow. We invest heavily in training, leadership development, and internal promotion because we know great leaders are built, not born.

Let’s be transparent:

This is a face-to-face sales and fundraising role.

You'll spend your day interacting directly with members of the public at events, pop-up campaigns, community outreach locations, and high-traffic environments throughout the NYC area.
