About Vivazen

Vivazen started with a bold idea: plant-powered performance could outperform synthetic stimulants dominating convenience stores. More than a decade later, we’ve helped define the category, selling over 700 million servings nationwide.

We operate fast. We reward performance. And we promote from results.

Our Territory Sales Representatives are entrepreneurial operators who own their markets. They open new accounts, build retailer relationships, and grow volume like founders grow startups.

What You’ll Do

This is not a “sit behind a desk” job. You’ll be in the field daily, learning by doing and building real sales experience fast.

You will:

• Open new retail accounts every week (convenience stores, smoke shops, bodegas, etc.)
• Build relationships with store owners and decision-makers
• Close deals and secure prime shelf space
• Drive reorders and keep shelves stocked
• Execute in-store marketing and promotions
• Track performance in a mobile CRM
• Manage inventory and deliveries
• Analyze your numbers and improve weekly

You’ll see direct results from your effort — in your paycheck and in your growth.
