About the Opportunity

We’re looking for an outgoing, motivated student who wants hands-on experience in sales, business development, partnerships, and events.

This isn’t an internship where you’ll spend your time observing from the sidelines. You’ll work directly with the founder across three growing businesses in the activewear, custom apparel, sports, and event industries.

You’ll have the opportunity to help generate new business, develop relationships with brands and organizations, support major events, and learn how partnerships and sales opportunities are taken from an initial conversation through execution.

The position will primarily be based in our Huntington office during the week, with opportunities to travel to events on select weekends throughout the year.

What You’ll Do

• Identify and reach out to potential customers, partners, gyms, events, and organizations
• Assist with custom apparel sales and client development
• Support sports partnership and sponsorship outreach
• Help develop leads and maintain our sales pipeline
• Participate in sales calls, meetings, and follow-ups
• Assist with in-person retail sales at events and pop-ups
• Support event coordination and on-site activations
• Build and maintain relationships with customers and partners
• Help develop new ideas for generating revenue and growing each business
• Travel to select events, competitions, and activations

What You’ll Gain

You’ll gain real-world experience in:

• Sales and business development
• Sponsorships and sports partnerships
• Custom apparel and merchandise
• Event sales and activation
• Relationship management
• Entrepreneurship and small-business growth
• Working directly with a founder and business owner

This role also provides opportunities to attend and work at major events in different cities throughout the year.

Who We’re Looking For

We’re looking for someone who:

• Is confident communicating and meeting new people
• Has a strong work ethic and takes initiative
• Is organized and dependable
• Enjoys sales, business, sports, fitness, apparel, or events
• Is comfortable reaching out to potential customers and partners
• Wants to learn by actually doing the work
• Is willing to occasionally work and travel on weekends
• Has reliable transportation

Previous sales experience is helpful, but not required. We care more about personality, work ethic, communication skills, and a willingness to learn.

Compensation

This is a paid internship with base compensation plus commission opportunities, allowing you to earn additional income based on the business and sales you help generate.
