Revolution Brewing, your favorite craft beer proudly brewed right here in the midwest, is hiring an Area Sales Manager to share the story of our brewery in Southern Illinois. As our front-line voice you'll work with our local distributor and retail partners to get our fresh beers into consumer fists. This may be through landing great spots for our displays, making sure our beer is pouring at your local bar or restaurant, or talking about our tasty beer at samplings or festivals in the future.

We're hiring for the territory that for us covers central and southern Illinois - ideally this person will be based out of Peoria for easy access to most distributors, but Bloomington/Normal area could work, too. You are required to live in the territory you represent and manage travel around to the various distributor areas. Let us know in a cover letter where you've had success!

Established relationships with local bars, restaurants and stores in these areas will be key to creating awareness with these partners and our consumers. You’ll be in the market most days, safely seeing accounts to drop off merch, beer, or anything else that will let folks know about our flagship or fun, new beers. Planning your days will have you using VIP, our sales data system, to analyze sales opportunities to get Rev into the public's hands. Following up with your accounts and summing up your wins to the distributor will showcase those great communication skills we know you’ll have, too.

If found on a different site than revbrew.com/employment, the base salary for this role is from $50,000-55,000, plus an annual bonus of 10% paid in January and a quarterly sales bonus tied to KPI's, up to $12,000year (most reps earn between $2-3K/quarter). Benefits begin the first day of the month after you start, with medical/dental/vision insurances, 3 weeks PTO, 401(k) with company match, and more offered.

Why You'll Be Amazing in this Role!
