We represent fantastic Vendors! We have awesome Customers!

Keeping them connected with the right sales professional is where the magic happens!

To start – this is an opportunity to own your own business while having the support and collaboration of a team. Although you don’t have to buy anything to get started, it is an investment of time and a learning curve to develop it to be the rewarding career it can be.

Our industry is 100% commission driven. The upside that the rock stars in the business are driven by is their independence, control of their time and financial future. The downside is the initial building process to earn relationships with buyers.

Sales Producers, Inc. is a progressive business-to-business sales organization established in 1983. We exclusively represent well-known brands in the Gift and Home Accessory industry with a wide variety of product categories.

Our 25 + Independent Retail Consultants cover the 13 Western States and enjoy the benefits of selling to an almost unlimited array of retail stores – if there’s a store front and a cash register, it’s likely to be a sales opportunity for one or more of our lines.

Our industry is similar to the Real Estate industry in that the relationships we earn are our biggest asset.

We represent fantastic Vendors! We have awesome Customers!

Keeping them connected with the right sales professional is where the magic happens!

To start – this is an opportunity to own your own business while having the support and collaboration of a team. Although you don’t have to buy anything to get started, it is an investment of time and a learning curve to develop it to be the rewarding career it can be.

Our industry is 100% commission driven. The upside that the rock stars in the business are driven by is their independence, control of their time and financial future. The downside is the initial building process to earn relationships with buyers.
