I love the ability to not only work outside but also help customers at the same time. Those who work hard can make lots of money.

Cons

If you are willing to put in the time and effort, there aren't many.

Thank you for sharing your experience and highlighting one of the best aspects of a sales career at Advocate Construction. The ability to work outdoors while directly assisting homeowners in our own communities is a major draw for our team. For individuals who enjoy working with the public but are exhausted by the demanding hours and capped earning potential often found in retail, hospitality, or traditional customer service roles, this position offers a refreshing and dynamic alternative where your dedication directly translates to high rewards. We also appreciate your positive feedback on our recently simplified compensation structure. Our current structure of a reliable base salary paired with a robust system of bonuses was designed to reward those who put in the effort and drive results. We strive to support our team members by equipping them with tech-savvy tools, our company truck program, and a supportive culture that values continuous improvement and accountability. We're grateful for your hard work in the Milwaukee market and look forward to celebrating many more of your successes in the field.

Thank you for sharing your experience with our team in St. Louis. We are thrilled to hear that you have found success and a sense of community here over the last several years. It's great to see our evolution from a traditional commission structure to a base salary with robust performance bonuses reflected in your feedback on compensation. We believe that anchoring our system in earned success ensures that high-performing individuals have access to some of the highest earning potential in the industry. Thriving in this role naturally requires adapting to the schedules of the homeowners we serve, as our approach is built on direct, face-to-face engagement with our customers. While this dynamic schedule involves evening and weekend availability, we focus on developing sustainable performance and a book of business that allows for work-life balance over the course of time.
