Sales – North America (Grocery & Retail)

Details

Commentsell helps grocery stores and retailers increase sales through social media. We work with 300+ stores, have generated billions of SEK in retailer revenue, and are established in Sweden and Finland. We already serve customers in North America. This is not an early idea-stage startup. We are hiring one of our first dedicated North American sales hires. You will own outbound prospecting, run demos, close deals, and help shape how we grow across the U.S. and Canada. You will work directly with the founders and have real influence over messaging, outreach strategy, and positioning. The product is easy to understand. Grocery stores and retailers sign up, connect their social media, and start running campaigns. Customers can often get started the same week. Sales cycles are short and the value proposition is concrete. This is a remote role. You can be based anywhere in the U.S. or Canada. The role begins with a 30-day trial period for both parties to ensure a strong mutual fit.

What You'll Do

• Find and reach out to grocery stores and retailers through cold calls, cold emails, LinkedIn, and any channel that works
• Run product demos and close deals
• Travel to stores and customer locations
• Build and manage your own sales pipeline
• Help shape our outreach messaging and positioning for the North American market
• Give direct feedback to the founders on what resonates and what doesn't
• Attend trade shows and industry events when it makes sense
• Consistently generate new business and grow revenue

What We're Looking For

• Experience with cold outreach and outbound prospecting
• You've sold to small or medium businesses before
• Comfortable picking up the phone, writing cold emails, and getting rejected
• Self-starter who doesn't need a playbook handed to them
• Willing to travel to stores and customer locations
• Retail, grocery, or food industry experience is a strong plus
• Based in the U.S. or Canada
• No degree required

Why This Role Is Different

• Most sales jobs mean joining a team of 20 reps, getting a territory, and following a script. This is the opposite.
• You are one of our first dedicated sales hires in North America. You will help figure out what works.
• You will have direct access to the founders. Your feedback shapes the product, the pitch, and the strategy.
• The product is already proven with 300+ stores in Europe. You are not selling vaporware.
• If you perform, you grow with us. This is a ground-floor opportunity in a company that already has real revenue and real customers.

Compensation & Benefits

• $2,500–$4,000/month base salary plus uncapped commission
• Your total earnings depend on your results. The base keeps the lights on; the commission is where the real money is
• Travel and business expenses covered

Who you'll work with

We're a small team that moves fast. No layers of approval, no endless meetings — you'll see your ideas ship and your work directly impact hundreds of stores. We care about winning together and helping each other get better.
