  • Conklin Fashions
  • Bainbridge, NY

Job Description

Pay Structure: $16.00/hour base + commission
Schedule: Monday–Friday, 8:30am–5:00pm
Location: On-site
Territory: National | Open book

About the Role

We are seeking one or two B2B Fashion Accessories Account Executives to grow wholesale relationships nationwide. This is a relationship-driven sales role , not a quick-close environment. Our business is built on long-term partnerships, large-volume orders, and trust developed over time.

This position is ideal for someone who is comfortable with commission-based earnings, enjoys building genuine business relationships, and understands that wholesale sales momentum builds gradually—but can become very rewarding once established.

How Compensation Works

  • $16.00/hour base pay + commission
  • Draw begins after 6 months OR after the first $10,000 wholesale order , whichever comes first
  • New customer commission: 5% of net sales
  • Repeat customer commission: 2.5% of net sales
  • Commission is calculated on net sales only (no shipping, gifts, or extras included)
  • Commission is paid in the first paycheck of each month
  • Commission is paid after customer payment is received (relevant for Net 30 accounts)

Earnings Transparency (Please Read)

This is a commission-based wholesale role, and earnings vary based on effort, consistency, and timing of large-volume orders.

  • New hires typically experience a ramp period focused on outreach, follow-ups, and relationship building
  • Early earnings can be inconsistent while a pipeline is established
  • As momentum builds, successful reps commonly earn in the mid–five figures annually , with higher earnings possible for consistent performers who close large wholesale orders

There is no income cap , but results are driven directly by activity, follow-through, and relationship management. This role is best suited for individuals who understand and are comfortable with variable commission income.

Lead Sources & Sales Approach

  • Leads provided when available
  • Cold outreach is expected
  • Extremely relationship-based sales cycle
  • Focus on quality, competitive pricing, and long-term customer value
  • New buyers often receive incentives such as free shipping, displays, or promotional support depending on order size

Product Lines

Wholesale jewelry and accessories across multiple tiers:

  • Entry-level costume: ~$6/dozen
  • Mid-tier costume: ~$18/dozen
  • High-quality department store styles: ~$24/dozen
  • Designer brands (e.g., Chico’s, White House | Black Market): ~$42/dozen
  • Scarves, hats, and winter apparel from $12/dozen up to $84/dozen

Typical wholesale orders range from $1,800–$4,800 , with minimums starting around $500 .

Day-to-Day Responsibilities

  • Outbound calls, emails, and follow-ups
  • Building and maintaining long-term wholesale relationships
  • Account management and reorders
  • Trade show participation (highly valued):
    • ASD & Off Price (Las Vegas)
    • Additional shows as opportunities arise (company expensed)
  • CRM activity tracking and organization

What You Need to Have

  • Comfort with commission-based compensation
  • Strong self-motivation and follow-through
  • Ability to handle rejection and long sales cycles
  • Professional communication skills

Nice-to-Haves

  • Prior B2B sales experience (any industry)
  • Jewelry or fashion industry experience
  • Existing wholesale relationships
  • CRM familiarity

Tools & Support

  • CRM: HubSpot
  • Samples, catalogs, and pricing support provided
  • Training and onboarding are limited—most learning happens through hands-on experience

Schedule & Expectations

  • Monday–Friday, 8:30am–5:00pm
  • Strictly on-site position
  • Candidates are encouraged (but not required) to handle calls or emails outside normal hours due to commission ties
  • Customers may request account transfers if communications are unattended

Is This Role a Good Fit?

This position is best for someone who:

  • Enjoys building long-term business relationships
  • Is comfortable with variable income tied to performance
  • Understands that wholesale sales take time—but can scale significantly

If you’re looking for a guaranteed or highly predictable paycheck, this role may not be the right fit—and that’s okay.

Ready to Apply?

If you’re motivated by relationship-based sales, large wholesale orders, and long-term growth, we’d love to hear from you. Apply to get started.
