Account Executive Rupt · Remote (Midwest) · Full-time NOTE: APPLICATIONS WILL ONLY BE LOOKED AT VIA OUR RUPT CAREERS PAGE, APPLY HERE: careers.rupt.com/account-executive Imagine walking into a distributor meeting and telling them their client can get ONE fully custom jacket, made in about 5 days and shipped anywhere in the world. Nobody else in promo can say that. You can. We started Rupt in 2024 because promo felt stuck: the same catalogs, the same minimums, the same waiting. So we built the opposite. Fully custom products with a 1-piece minimum, made in about 5 days and shipped to 70+ countries. The product’s ready and distributors are starting to notice. Now we need people who make sure every one of them knows.
What you’ll do:
  • Book 5–12 virtual distributor meetings and make about 25 calls a week. Prospect, wake up quiet accounts, and follow up on what just shipped.
  • Study the distributor’s biggest clients: launches, conferences, recruiting pushes, gifting season. Think in buying windows, and pitch 60–90 days out.
  • Walk in with the idea. Grab logos, brief our designers, and show up with virtuals before anyone asks.
  • Stay in it. Call after every order, turn happy reps into intros, and pick up the phone when something goes sideways.
  • How the team works
  • Hunter → Farmer → Operator. You’re the hunter. But you don’t toss a lead over the fence and disappear. If it’s a new customer, a big deal, or a relationship that needs a real human, you’re still in it.
  • Probably you1–3 years in sales, account management or business development. Promo experience is a bonus, not a requirement.
  • You’d rather pick up the phone than send a fourth “just following up” email.
  • Organized as hell. Clean CRM, time-blocked calendar, and you know what tomorrow looks like before today’s over.
  • Competitive in a way your friends find slightly annoying.
  • You can read a company’s LinkedIn and spot five reasons they need merch this quarter.
  • Probably not you
  • You’re waiting for inbound.
  • You close it, hand it off and ghost.
  • A packed week sounds exhausting instead of fun.
  • The details
  • Remote, based in the Midwest
  • Full-time with benefits
  • Base + commission
  • Reports to our Director of SalesHow to get our attention
  • Skip the cover letter. /account-executive and show us how you think: pick a company you’d love to sell branded merch to, and name three moments over the next six months where product could show up.
  • GO HUNT. BRING THE IDEA.
