AGRONOMY SALES REPRESENTATIVE

This is a fantastic opportunity that won't be open very long.  The existing book of business is very large and whoever gets this job will be in a great position to make a ton of commission.  For this reason they are needing someone with some experience to jump into this role.  Ideally someone from the area as well but that isn't a deal breaker.  I know that the commission potential is double the salary and more if done right.
