We are looking for a dedicated, high-energy Salesperson to represent our brand at various farmers' markets. This role is a hybrid of logistics, physical setup, and proactive sales.

Core Responsibilities
1. Logistics and Load-In
- Arrive punctually at the market to begin the "Load-In" process.
2. Setup
- Lead the assembly of the booth, which includes carefully lifting and anchoring the tent with weights.
- Organize an attractive display using tablecloths, baskets, and risers to create an inviting professional appearance.
- Hang branding banners and ensure menus/pricing are clearly visible to customers.
3. Sales and Customer Service
- Act as the primary "Salesperson," greeting every customer with a smile and staying approachable at all times.
- Maintain deep product knowledge to answer questions confidently and engage in storytelling about our offerings.
- Proactively up-sell products, such as suggesting a lemonade with every transaction or offering "bundle of 3" samosa snack packs.
- Maintain a professional presence: do not sit, eat, or use a mobile phone in the presence of customers.
4. Operations and Maintenance
- Keep the booth area tidy, free of clutter, and clear of debris throughout the day.
- Manage waste and recyclables according to market standards.
- Process payments accurately using the device and manage the cash pouch.
5. Pack-Up
- Initiate pack-up 30 minutes before closing, encouraging last-minute sales.
- Label and pack unsold products carefully to ensure freshness and document items returning to storage.
- Load the vehicle strategically, placing heavier items first for stability.
