Road Warrior (Wine Jobs: Sales & Marketing)

Full Time

  Rebel Coast Winery

  Everywhere, California

Do you want to cruise around in a ‘67 VW Bus up and down the coast for the next year? Surf wherever, stay wherever? Do you like pouring wine? Drinking wine? Chatting with strangers and making new friends? Do you normally use Tinder to find your “hotel” rooms? Hahaha...no, but seriously. Do you know how to plan trips using a map and calendar? No joke, that’s all we are looking for.

So here's the deal, Rebel Coast Winery is growing and we need someone to help us continue doing what we started out doing. Which is pouring wine into strangers glasses. We need another road warrior to drive all over CA and go to the the wine events that will continue to grow our brand. This includes everything from the small town wine sampling events on a Tuesday at the local mom and pop wine bar we sell to, to conducting in-store demos at every Whole Foods, BevMo! and Sprouts in CA. When you show up to these tastings, plan on setting up a little table and pouring our wine for the people shopping. You’ll also need to take photos, hand-sell the wine, and most importantly - make each person’s day a little brighter. You must be truly self-motivated and invigorated by this lifestyle because it’s not glamorous, you will be on the road every day by yourself, and no one will be there to hold your hand or change your flat tire. 

This is an entry level job within the sales side of the wine industry. Although, our startup winery is growing and we currently sell our wine in 30 states, so there is opportunity to expand this role to other states if your performance warrants a promotion. If you are excellent and want to travel more after you’ve got CA on lock, there is opportunity, but CA is our first and primary focus so don’t go asking to travel outside of CA for at least 9 months.

Travel/Transportation Details: 

-Your company car to use is a 1967 yellow VW Bus. Yes, that means it’s a stick shift. 

-Gas is covered, breakdowns are covered. 

-Hotel/Airbnb stay will have a very conservative price range. We are still in startup mode, and the tinder thing was not entirely a joke. Through our own road warrior travels, we have learned that a standard exchange rate for a couch for the night is a 12 pack of non-shitty beer. We can help with that too. 

Your base is $36k. If you hit your goals for the year, plan on making $45k.
Your Burning Man 2016 ticket is covered.
Junior or Senior level video/editing skills may warrant higher pay.
We don't offer any health benefits yet, talk to Obama about that. BUT we will give you more wine then you can imagine, which is pretty much a remedy anyways.

How To Apply

This gig is 100% a personality position, so resumes don’t matter to us. Straight out of college? Cool. Old man who wears whatever he wants and refuses to grow up? Cool too. Although, you must be tech-savvy and with the times, so bust out your iPhone, shoot a 1-2 minute video about yourself and post it on YouTube with the title, “Hey Rebel Coast Winery, I want to work with you!” (or something like that) and also send the link to: [email protected] If you shotgun send a resume, meaning you did not read this and are wasting our time, I will have our pledge send a bag of poop to the address in the header of your resume. No joke, it is called www.PoopSenders.com and we have a subscription.
