Territory Sales Representing Jonas Paul Eyewear & TOMS Eyewear in plains region

Description

About Us

Jonas Paul Eyewear helps kids feel confident in glasses they actually want to wear — blending style, comfort, and purpose at an accessible price. In 2025, we’re expanding into the adult optical space through our partnership with TOMS Eyewear, bringing back a beloved, mission-led brand to the wholesale market.

As we grow our wholesale presence, we’re hiring a Territory Sales Representative to cover the Central Midwest territory — including Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Nebraska, Arkansas, Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota — representing both Jonas Paul Eyewear and TOMS Eyewear to independent optical accounts, regional retailers, and key industry partners.


What You’ll Do

  • Drive sales by managing, nurturing, and growing wholesale accounts throughout the Central Midwest region
  • Present and place the Jonas Paul and TOMS Eyewear collections with optical shops, regional chains, and eye care professionals (ECPs)
  • Deliver compelling brand storytelling and product education to drive interest and loyalty
  • Attend trade shows, in-store appointments, and local events to represent the brands and generate new business
  • Support sell-in and sell-through efforts with marketing tools, training, and relationship-building
  • Maintain regular in-person customer visits on a 4–12 week rotation to deepen relationships and support sales growth
  • Keep CRM, pipeline, and account activity organized and up to date


What We’re Looking For

  • 2–5 years of territory sales experience, ideally in optical, fashion, or consumer goods
  • Existing relationships in the Central Midwest optical market are a major plus
  • High initiative, self-direction, and comfort working remotely and independently
  • Strong communication, presentation, and follow-up skills
  • Must reside in one of the covered states (MO, KS, IA, NE, AR, MN, ND, or SD), preferably near a central metro hub to allow efficient travel across the region
  • Willingness and ability to:
  • Travel regionally up to 80% of the time
  • Use a personal car for work travel (valid driver’s license required)
  • Lift and carry 20–30 lb sample bags for meetings and events


Why You’ll Love This Role

You’ll represent two brands that customers love — Jonas Paul Eyewear and TOMS Eyewear — each with a clear purpose and beautiful product. You’ll be supported by a growing team, product innovation, and marketing that drives results. If you’re passionate about people, storytelling, and creating meaningful growth, we’d love to meet you.
