Sales Associate — CITY Furniture
Employer: CITY Furniture
Location: Altamonte Springs, FL (555 Douglas Ave — onsite)
Pay: Starting at $65,000 / year (commission-driven; uncapped earning potential)
Type: Full-time — Sales / Retail (Commission)
What You’ll Do:
• Help guests design their homes and present furniture, mattress, and service options.
• Convert showroom interactions into sales — create invoices and schedule deliveries.
• Prospect, manage accounts, cultivate referrals, and drive repeat purchases.
• Assist guests with financing options and guide them through the sales process.
• Keep the showroom neat and welcoming; be on your feet ~8 hours/day and navigate a large floor.
• Meet or exceed monthly sales goals and KPIs; address customer concerns and ensure satisfaction.
• Participate in ongoing training, role-play, and professional development to improve performance.
Why It Stands Out:
• Strong training program and marketing/delivery/aftercare support — company provides the product, marketing, and logistics so you can focus on selling.
• Clear, transparent compensation model with uncapped commission — first-year minimum target of ~$65K if hitting goals and potential to earn $200K+ with high performance.
• Highly promotable culture (90% promote-from-within) and robust benefits (medical/dental/vision, 401[k] match, paid leave, parental leave, EAP, discounts).
• Entrepreneurial sales role — you run your own book of business and control your time and income upside.
Potential Trade-offs:
• Commission-driven — income highly dependent on your sales volume, prospecting, and pipeline management.
• Physically demanding (long hours on your feet) and requires consistent prospecting and follow-up.
• Performance expectations and KPIs are strict — monthly targets and conversion metrics matter.
• Work can be sales-pressure heavy; success depends on self-discipline, hustle, and relationship management.
Qualifications / Requirements:
• Positive energy, goal-oriented, strong verbal communication and active listening.
• Self-driven, motivated, and comfortable in a customer-facing sales environment.
• Experience in relationship management, influencing customers, and meeting KPIs preferred.
• Professionalism, integrity, and ability to work collaboratively with showroom team and managers.
• Willingness to learn — company provides training; previous furniture sales helpful but not required.
Perks / Benefits:
• Competitive, transparent compensation with uncapped commission — potential to exceed $200K for top performers.
• Medical, dental, vision, life & disability insurance; voluntary insurance options.
• 401(k) with company match, paid vacation & sick time, paid parental leave, on-site health clinic (Tamarac), EAP, associate discounts, ERGs, and strong promotion-from-within culture.
• Best-in-class onboarding/training program and ongoing marketing and delivery support.

Would you take this job?
If you were applying, what would be your top three non-negotiables: (A) a clear base salary + transparent commission plan and payout cadence, (B) formal training + predictable schedule and sales support (lead flow, marketing handoffs), or (C) a structured mentorship/career path and documented promotion criteria? Which would you pick and why — and what would you ask the hiring manager before accepting (for example: “What is the exact comp plan — base vs. commission split, commission rates, and payout timing?”, “How many leads does marketing deliver vs. what I’m expected to source?”, “What’s the average first-year earnings for someone who meets targets and what support/mentorship is provided?”)?
