By design, sales positions are very conducive to working from home since most (if not all!) of the work can be done virtually. These days, companies can even successfully conduct global sales meetings online — without the extensive travel required of sales professionals in the past.
Even though some remote sales jobs may still require partial travel, as companies realize just how much work can be done remotely, more and more sales responsibilities are moving online. And they can be very lucrative positions! According to Salary.com, a sales representative with only four to seven years of experience earns an average of $91,531 per year.
To help you launch your remote sales career, FlexJobs has identified 11 companies that commonly hire for remote sales jobs, with positions that range from entry-level to senior management and executive level.
