About the Role
We are seeking a Retail Account Manager to cover Northern Illinois. In this full-time role, you will serve as a brand ambassador for Stine, representing our commitment to quality and innovation. This position offers an excellent opportunity to grow professionally and financially within a supportive environment.
You will act as the primary link between Stine and our retail dealers, promoting our brand to increase sales and awareness across your assigned territory. Your day-to-day involves visiting key retail locations, performing at least twenty on-site dealer visits per week, and collecting side-by-side yield data to demonstrate product value.

To succeed, you will need to be a self-starter capable of working with minimum supervision to meet established goals. You will leverage provided tools—including a company vehicle, laptop, and promotional budget—to manage prospect data, communicate account performance, and organize product training classes.
