All Other Specialty Trade ContractorsSeptic Tank and Related ServicesCustom Computer Programming ServicesPorta Pro is software built for portable toilet companies and site service operators.
Most of the people we talk to are running their business on paper, spreadsheets, or outdated systems. Or they’re stuck using expensive, overly complex software that actually makes things harder.
We give them a simpler way to manage jobs, routes, equipment, and customers without the chaos. On top of that, Porta Pro includes built-in tools like marketing campaigns, e-signatures, and customer portals so they can drop tools like Mailchimp and Docu Sign and keep everything in one place.
We’re looking for independent sales reps who can connect with these operators, understand how they run today, and show them a system that actually fits how their business works.
This is a 1099 contractor role. You manage your own pipeline. We’ll support where it makes sense.
Tasks What the role actually looks like:
Prospect and reach out to portable toilet companies and service operators through your own outreach and network
Work inbound leads as they come in and run them like a true consultant, not a script
Talk directly with owners and decision makers about how they currently run scheduling, routing, and operations
Run simple, straightforward demos focused on how Porta Pro makes their day-to-day easier
Keep everything organized inside Salesforce so pipeline, notes, and follow-ups are always clear
Manage your deals from first conversation through close, including follow-ups and next steps Avoid feature dumping. Focus on the real problems and how the product fixes them
Share feedback from conversations so we can keep improving positioning and product direction
Requirements:
This isn’t a corporate checklist, but this is who tends to do well:
Experience selling software. Not just physical products
Comfortable selling into contractors, or blue-collar industries. The “M” in SMB is where we’re focused. Established operators with real volume, real problems, and real urgency to fix them.
Able to run a consultative sale instead of reading off features
Comfortable picking up the phone and starting conversations
Organized enough to manage your own pipeline inside Salesforce
Able to talk to business owners in a normal, direct way
Comfortable working as a 1099 contractor
Bonus if you’ve worked with field service, sanitation, construction, or logistics-related software
Benefits:
What you get out of it:
Flexible schedule. You control your time and pipeline
Commission-based earnings with no cap
A product that actually solves real problems for operators and is easy to sell once they see it
Straightforward communication. No layers, no corporate process
Early opportunity to grow with the company as more customers come on
If this sounds like something you’d be good at, send over your info.
No long cover letter needed. Just a quick note on your background and why this makes sense for you.
We’re not into buzzwords. No need to be a “dynamic rockstar,” or “sales guru
