Landscaping Sales Representative Jobs in Illinois

A Landscaping Sales Representative is a professional who promotes and sells landscape services and products to commercial and residential clients. They establish and maintain relationships with clients, create and present proposals, negotiate contracts, and follow up on leads to secure new projects. Additionally, they work closely with the design and installation teams to ensure that client expectations are met or exceeded. These professionals are essential to the landscaping industry as they drive sales and contribute to the growth and profitability of the business.
