Rebel
Who?


 


Why Rebel, Why
This Job.
Some people like the status quo, the safe and the
mundane. Others challenge every convention in the book, create new values and
expectations, and change their world. They are the Rebels. They are the
Challengers. If this is you, read on.


 


Rebel Athletic is a classic
Challenger Brand. Established in 2013 by Ernst & Young Entrepreneur of the
Year 2020, Karen Aldridge, to challenge the lowly conventions of the All-Star
Cheer apparel market. Rebel is now the undisputed All-Star Cheer market,
thought and style leader.


 


Over the past
8+ years, Rebel has turned heads quicker than any other manufacturer, and
expanded into School and Sideline Cheer, Dance, and everyday athletic wear –
all with a trademark sparkle. Rebel’s cutting-edge designs, technological
innovations and unstinting focus on service, quality, choice, and value have
set a new standard in an industry that was starving for something new. Rebel is
the brand that everyone else follows. So, if you want to be a follower, go and
work for them. If not, become a Rebel.


 


Summary of Position: Rebel’s Sales Representatives are the
life blood of the company. Without this army of self-motivated go-getters,
there is no business. You will be responsible for prospecting your territory to
find the athletic directors, coaches and teams who want to be Rebel Level. Be
warned, Rebel isn’t for everyone, and we’re ok with that. But for those who
demand excellence, Rebel is the only choice.


 


We
are looking for great salespeople first, cheer or dance aficionados second.
Being part of the cheer industry, past or present, is not a pre-requisite.
Being ambitious, a great communicator, organized, a charismatic people-person,
and unsinkable, are.
Rebels wear their passion on their sleeve. They are team
players, creative thinkers, and impatient doers. They love a challenge and
don’t take no for an answer.


 


Our Mission


To bring School Dance and Studio Dance from the sidelines to center stage. To have those who
dance recognized as the incredible athletes they are. To ensure that greatness
is never constrained.


 


What’s This
Role All About?
As a Rebel Sales Representative you will:


  • Be assigned a geographical
    territory; responsible for reaching out to and managing all customers in
    that territory.

  • Cold call and prospect schools in
    the assigned territory (Division and Territory will be assigned). You would
    be calling and selling to people you probably will not know; this is a big
    part of the job and something you need to be comfortable doing.

  • Represent Rebel at company
    events, coach’s conferences, trade shows, and cheerleading competitions.

  • Help expand the Rebel line to the
    cheer and dance industry.

  • Make presentations to prospects,
    coaches, Booster Clubs, etc.

  • Work with other Reps when called
    upon – specifically on high profile programs.

  • Attend all company-sponsored
    meetings and conference calls – virtually or in person, as required.

  • Submit, on time, all reports
    required to show your progress and book of business.

  • Be proficient in Microsoft
    software, particularly Excel

  • Professionally always represent
    Rebel and all Rebel policies accurately.

  • Manage customer expectations.
    This means clearly explaining the deadlines and reminding the customer
    that delivery dates are in jeopardy if they do not respond.

  • Assist all departments in making
    the Rebel experience a remarkable one. This means responding to emails
    promptly, returning phone calls within hours, getting art, tech, project
    managers questions answered immediately. It means providing a level of
    customer service unseen by anyone in our industry

  • Most importantly, building
    long-lasting relationships with Rebel customers so they will be loyal to
    the brand, forgive us when we make a mistake, and allow us to fix it, tell
    their friends about us, and be proud when they tell someone who made their
    uniforms.

  • Be a positive force for good, for
    change, and for excellence in the cheer and dance world.

 


What
requirements do I need to be a Rebel?


  • A college degree, BA, BS,
    preferred.

  • Proven sales experience and
    success.

  • A self-starter, entrepreneurial
    spirit and level of dedication and grit.

    everything you do
