<![CDATA[Help! One of our key interior designers just had a severe accident while she was on vacation. Thankfully, she’ll be fine, but unfortunately she’ll be off work a very long time to heal her wounds. And while we will miss her, the show must go on. Besides, we’ve been thinking about adding another person due to our increased business anyway. What this means to you is that we have an opening right now for a qualified interior designer. If you’ve got the right stuff, you could be working here as soon as next week! Rockridge Furniture & Design is a local furniture store, located in the historic Rockridge District in north Oakland. Our store has been part of the neighborhood community for over 40 years. We are a family owned small business. Our 4,500 sq ft Rockridge store is our only location. And while our website is undergoing a massive redo, you can check out our old one at <a href="http://www.RockridgeFurniture.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.RockridgeFurniture.com</a> . Our clients just love us, and that’s why our sales are up 27% in 2010 so far! In this position you’ll be talking with 20 to 40 new prospects daily, assisting them with their home furnishing needs. Specifically you’ll work with them to select furniture, finishes, upholstery, rugs, art, wall color and more. This is done face to face in our store, and often times at the client’s home if needed. Frequently there’ll be homework for you to do before you meet with that client again to present your recommendations. There isn’t any cold calling. The prospects come to you! The ideal candidate would be an interior designer who is looking for more clients, and ways to expand their existing business. If you’ve run your own small business, you probably have some insight into the mindset required to succeed You’ll be part of a small, elite team. Your co-workers will show you respect, and go beyond the call of duty for you – and you’ll be expected to do the same for them. Our culture is non-predatory, cooperative and results driven. Our job openings don’t come up very often, as this is a special place to work and people tend to stay a long time. Our work environment is very different than most. The right person will love it here, while most others just won’t get it. Our typical workweek is 38hrs. We offer one of the highest commission rates in the industry. Benefits include medical and dental coverage, as well as vacation pay. Here is what you need in order to be successful in this position: - A strong fashion/design esthetic. Can you pick out pieces of furniture and accessories, which create an environment where the whole is greater than the sum of the parts? - Near Tireless Energy - Willingness to work most weekends and Holidays. - Coach-ability, you’re going to get lots of constructive feedback, especially at first. It’s your job to hear it without getting hurt or defensive, and then integrate that into your behavior. If you have a big ego, and need to be right about everything, don’t apply. We can’t coach someone who already knows it all. - 2+ years Sales experience. Cashiering & order taking experience do not count as sales experience. Preferably direct experience in the home furnishings area. - Comfortable working on a commission basis, and have experienced success in prior commission based work. Our commission rate is high, so if you do the work, you’ll get rewarded well. - You’re results focused vs. being excuse focused. If your not hitting your targets, and you believe the cause is something outside your influence (i.e. “the economy”), it’s not going to go well for you here, and you shouldn’t apply. - Must have a car to visit your clients. - Strong organizing skills. You’re going to be managing hundreds of details for tons of clients. If you expect to keep all this in your head without an external system, then don’t apply. Only you know what works for you organizationally, we will show you our system, however it up to you to invest the time ongoingly to make it work. - Know how to sell; you must know the specific steps/phases of selling, and have basic competence in each phase. If you don’t know them, please don’t apply – we don’t want to hear about how fast of a learner you are. Your sales are the result of your personal effectiveness at working a selling process, and your continual self-improvement. Your sales aren’t the result of having good or bad luck. So if your life is a chaotic, lucky/unlucky drama filled existence – just don’t apply. You must believe at the deepest level that you make your own luck. - Results based orientation. Everything you do either moves you towards or away from those results. You know this intuitively, and are self-directed. Bonus: If you meet the above qualifications, your knowledge and experience in the following areas will be especially useful so be sure to let us know if you any experience or training with: - Direct Response Marketing - Persuasion principles and techniques - Advanced communications trainings By the way, it’s also cool if you’re a non-smoker.
