Outside Sales Representative
ESR Motor Systems is seeking an experienced Outside Sales Representative to develop new business and grow an assigned Indiana territory. This home-based, field-sales position is supported by our Indianapolis branch and experienced inside-sales team.
Candidates may live anywhere in Indiana. The territory will be structured around the successful candidate's location and ESR's business needs. Most customer travel can be completed within the same day, with occasional visits to the Indianapolis branch.
The primary focus is new-account development: identifying prospective industrial customers, understanding their operations and applications, solving problems, and converting opportunities into profitable, long-term business.
ESR is a premier U.S. industrial distributor with one of the country's strongest electric motor brand lineups. Our excellent inventory, industry-leading tools, technical knowledge, responsive support, and strong growth trajectory give salespeople the resources to solve difficult customer problems, win business, and build successful territories.
Why Join ESR?- Guaranteed minimum total compensation for the first 12 months with uncapped earning potential
- High autonomy and ownership of your assigned territory
- Fast, experienced inside-sales and quoting support
- Direct access to company leadership and responsive decision-making
- Manufacturer-supported technical and product training
- Opportunity to expand ESR's Indiana presence and advance into sales or branch leadership
This is a consultative, problem-solving sales role—not an order-taking position. You are responsible for turning ESR's products, expertise, tools, and service capabilities into meaningful customer results.
- Develop and execute a territory plan, consistently prospect for new industrial customers, and generate profitable, long-term growth.
- Spend meaningful time at customer facilities learning their operations, critical equipment, maintenance practices, production priorities, and recurring problems.
- Look beyond the initial request to identify root causes, prevent future problems, and uncover opportunities to improve reliability and uptime.
- Continually develop and apply knowledge of ESR's offerings, providing customers with valuable information about products, applications, alternatives, and services they may not have considered.
- Respond with urgency, communicate next steps clearly, keep customers informed, and follow through from the initial conversation through delivery and after-sale support.
- Coordinate ESR's inside-sales team, technical resources, and manufacturer partners while remaining personally accountable for the customer experience.
- Prepare solution-based proposals, negotiate terms, close profitable business, and earn loyalty by consistently solving problems and delivering results.
- Maintain an accurate CRM pipeline, document customer activity, and provide reliable forecasts and follow-up.
