First and foremost, your core values should align with ours
Give A Crap
— Delight others by owning your role and saying yes. Take pride in how you appear, act, and handle every detail of the job. Be on time, attentive, and enthusiastic. Act as if the buck stops with you on every aspect.
Chase Perfection
— Chase perfection knowing we may not reach it, but along the way we will catch excellence. Have a sense of urgency; Go-Forth Time — right now might be the only time you have to get it right.
Dig Deeper
— Be an action-oriented professional who makes decisions based on evidence rather than stories and assumptions. Stay curious. Data can speak for itself. Understand the cause of the fire rather than rushing to extinguish it.
Fight For Simplicity
— Keep it simple and consistent. Focus on how things should be done every time.
Face It, Fix It
— Confront challenges directly and address issues head-on. A bias for action and powerful conversations drive our progress. It’s about getting it right rather than being right.
GROW!
— Growth is our purpose. Growing as people and growing our business.
Field Sales and Service
Build and grow a customer base from zero by actively engaging in door-to-door prospecting, generating leads through referrals, and closing deals.
Handle inbound leads from company advertising and office calls, converting them into loyal customers.
Provide exceptional pest control and termite services, including inspections, treatments, and follow-ups.
Conduct home visits and consultations to assess customer needs and recommend appropriate pest and termite solutions.
Ensure customer satisfaction by addressing inquiries, resolving issues, and maintaining positive relationships.

Lead the startup of the new Florida branch, establishing operational processes and building momentum through consistent sales and service efforts.
Track personal performance metrics, such as sales targets and customer acquisition, and implement strategies to drive growth.
Prepare for future team expansion by demonstrating best practices in sales techniques, customer service, and industry knowledge.
Operational Management
Establish and manage initial day-to-day operations for the startup branch, including personal scheduling, initial territory mapping, and basic resource setup to launch effectively.
Coordinate with headquarters and support departments to secure startup resources and ensure smooth initial execution of solo sales and service activities.
Monitor and maintain personal inventory levels, equipment, and supplies to enable efficient, independent field operations during the early growth phase.
Roll out and adhere to company policies, procedures, and safety standards from day one, with an emphasis on personal compliance in pest and termite services to build a strong foundation.
