  • Deliver live product demonstrations, remote training, and educational presentations for customers and prospects.
  • Work with technical services, finance, and other support teams to ensure customer success—including installation support, product usage calculations, and A/R activities.
  • Represent ICP Group through participation in sports surfacing organizations, trade shows, and industry events.
Experience needed:
  • Proven sales success in sports surfacing coatings and cushion systems or closely related construction/materials industries.
  • Strong track record of cold-calling and territory development, from small businesses to large nationwide accounts.
  • Exceptional communication skills, with the ability to deliver impactful presentations and conduct effective customer training.
  • Ability to work independently, build trust with clients, and overcome common sales objections such as pricing and application knowledge.
  • Experience interacting with multi-level business leaders and cross-functional teams to achieve shared objectives.
  • Travel approximately 50% of the time across multi-state markets and major cities within your region.
