Business Development Manager For Fast-Moving Wine Brand

•  ATLANTA Area
•  Only Top Performers Need Apply

Are you ready to build something extraordinary?
We’re looking for a sales pro who doesn’t need babysitting. Someone who wakes up hungry,
knows how to hustle smart, and is ready to take full ownership of their territory.

This role is NOT about managing distributors. This is about selling. Period.
We’re a fast-moving wine brand with big goals and a modern approach. We’re not looking for
average — we’re looking for exceptional.

What You’ll Actually Do:

•  Protect and grow sales in a defined list of high-potential accounts.
•  Focus relentlessly on the 20% of accounts that drive 80% of results.
•  Build long-term relationships with restaurant and retail buyers.
•  Own your outcomes. No blaming the distributor. No excuses.
•  Keep your CRM updated. If you hate CRM, this job’s not for you.
•  Collaborate with our team, but act like the CEO of your territory.

What We’re Looking For:

•  Highly organized, self-motivated, zero-handholding required.
•  Clear understanding of how to add value to the buyer, not just pitch products.
•  A modern, data-driven mindset with excellent business acumen.
•  Someone who gets excited by challenges, not paralyzed by them.
•  You take notes. You follow up. You make stuff happen.

Compensation:

•  Modest base salary + a no-cap, tiered commission plan.
•  Sell more, make more. It’s that simple.

Important: If you’re looking for a comfy gig with a fat salary and little accountability, this is not
the job for you. But if you're ready to build a thriving sales territory with a high-performance team
behind you, we want to hear from you. This is an entry-level position with enormous upside
potential!
