Specification Sales Reps for Architectural Bath & Wellness Products

This opportunity represents a long-established manufacturer of bathing, shower, and wellness systems designed for residential and light commercial environments. The role focuses on driving product specification by working upstream with architects, designers, and project stakeholders to influence product selection during the design and planning phase.

The sales motion is specification-led rather than transactional, with repeat order potential tied to project pipelines, builder relationships, and long product lifecycles.

WHY THIS SELLS

• Products are specified early in the design phase, creating long sales tails and repeat orders
• Strong demand driven by residential renovation, hospitality, and wellness-focused builds
• Spec-based selling reduces price shopping once products are written into plans
• Extensive technical documentation (CAD, BIM, submittals) supports easier adoption by designers
• High switching costs once specified, protecting commissions downstream

BUSINESS MATURITY (PROVEN VS NEW)

Established. The product line has long-standing use across residential and light commercial projects, supported by mature manufacturing, documentation, and distribution infrastructure.

YOUR DAY-TO-DAY

• Track specified projects through completion and reorder cycles

SUPPORT & RESOURCES
