Join J. Blanton Plumbing
J. Blanton Plumbing is expanding its Sewer Sales Division in Columbus, Ohio, and we're looking for experienced In-Home Sales Consultants, Residential Sales Representatives, HVAC Comfort Advisors, Home Improvement Sales Professionals, and High-Ticket Sales Professionals.
If you have a proven track record selling high-ticket products or services directly to homeowners, we'll teach you the sewer and plumbing side of the business.

Responsibilities include:
- Conducting in-home sales consultations with homeowners
- Building rapport and establishing customer trust

- Presenting high-ticket sewer repair and replacement solutions
- Handling questions and objections
- Closing sales during the initial appointment when appropriate

- Home Improvement or Remodeling Sales
- Plumbing or Restoration Sales
