Home Improvement Sales Consultant
Location: Pomona, CA | Field-based throughout Southern California
Compensation: Base salary up to $75,000, plus 3% uncapped commission
Earning potential: $120,000–$180,000+
Employment: Full-time
If you know how to earn a homeowner’s trust, evaluate a property, present a solution, and confidently ask for the sale, this may be the opportunity for you.
American Precast Concrete and Concrete Fence Installers are looking for an experienced Home Improvement Sales Consultant to grow residential sales throughout Southern California.
This is a field-based, high-ticket sales position for someone who knows how to build relationships and generate business—not someone who wants to wait for leads to appear. You will develop your own pipeline through referrals, networking, community involvement, and consistent prospecting while also working company-generated opportunities.
Who We Are
American Precast Concrete (APC) manufactures high-quality precast concrete fence and wall systems. Concrete Fence Installers (CFI), our installation division, completes the work using our own trained crews.
Because we manufacture and install our own systems, our sales consultants can offer homeowners a complete solution—from the initial property evaluation through installation and final walkthrough.
Our products provide a durable, attractive, and low-maintenance alternative to traditional wood fencing and CMU block walls.
The Opportunity
You will meet with homeowners at their properties, understand what they are trying to accomplish, and recommend the right precast concrete fence or wall solution.
You will own the relationship from the first conversation through the signed agreement. That includes prospecting, property evaluations, consultations, estimating, presenting proposals, overcoming objections, negotiating within company guidelines, and closing the sale.
This position is best suited for a self-directed salesperson who is comfortable generating new business and selling high-value home improvement projects.
What You’ll Do
- Generate residential business through networking, referrals, self-prospecting, community involvement, and company-generated opportunities
- Conduct professional in-home consultations and property evaluations

- Present pricing confidently and respond to homeowner questions and objections
- Negotiate contracts while protecting company pricing and profitability

- Coordinate with estimating, production, and installation teams
- Set clear customer expectations before the project is handed off to operations
- Meet or exceed monthly and annual sales goals
