NATIONAL BOOK BUYERS

Title:  Independent Buyer/Rep.
Compensation: Average 1^st year is $51,984 based on working 40 weeks a year

Experience: 1-2 years of Sales experience

Job Description

Join National Book Buyers and become a professional textbook buyer for an industry leader.  With over 30 years of experience, National Book Buyers is positioned to help you grow a new territory.  The position involves traveling locally to purchase unwanted or surplus textbooks from college faculty.  In reality you're selling yourself, your personality, and your ability to quickly build a relationship with each call.  We have been successful in this industry for over 30 years and will give you the training you need to make you successful, just as our other buyers have done.

Any college, university, or community college is a potential target. Where you travel is up to you.  You will determine future routes based on success.  This will all be part of your training and on-going support.

This is an independent sales role.   Therefore, you don’t have a boss nagging you about numbers.  If you are a self starter and money motivated, this is a great opportunity for you.  You set your work day and week to meet your financial goals.  Our average first year buyer makes $51,984 in just 40 weeks of work a year.  The most successful buyers are exceeding $100,000.00.

Requirements

The ideal candidate will have a strong desire to succeed by making calls on a daily basis.  The more books you buy, the more money you make.  Good communication skills are key to your success.  Your ability to build a relationship with the first call will greatly increase your chances of earning the business.  Experience is a plus but not a requirement.  We will train the right candidate on what has been successful in the past and give you the tools to grow your business.  The key to grow your business and income is the ability to consistently and successfully cold call.  You will be calling on warm leads, because every college professor has unwanted or unsolicited textbooks.  They may or may not want to sell these textbooks.  That’s up to you to find out!

A 4-year degree is desirable, but some college work will be very beneficial. Sales experience will be an added asset.  Persistence, creativity, an entrepreneurial spirit and a strong desire to succeed will make you successful in this role.  In addition, some computer expertise with MS Excel and email is necessary; as well as a reliable vehicle and the ability to lift 60 lbs.  If you desire to invest in growing your own business in a profession that is proven to have long-term positive implications, we're ready to speak to you.

No purchase of inventory or start up fees.  Some start up cash needed—not a dime goes to us.  Start up cash is for purchases that will result in a profit to you based on market price of books.
