About the Company:

Overdrive Distribution Corp. (ODC) Is excited to be the exclusive Central Florida Direct Store Distributor (DSD) for the H2O Overdrive™ Sport Hydration Drink.

We are a VERY young company having only started marketing the product in June of this year.  This means 2 very important things to potential job seekers…

1.  This is a startup operation and is very dynamic, changing constantly, and looking for individuals who are self-motivated and can work independently.  Because we are a startup, we do not currently offer benefits of any kind.  Although this will certainly change in the future, if you NEED benefits from working with us, we will not be able to help you at this time.

2.  For the RIGHT PEOPLE, this is an incredible opportunity to be on the ground floor and grow with us!  As we grow, those who helped create our success will enjoy the greatest rewards.  Imagine being one of the first people to start the company that sells Red Bull or Gatorade!  How would your life be different?

About the Product:

H2O Overdrive™ is definitely a “game changer” in that there isn’t currently a sports drink out there that delivers on the promise of true, intracellular hydration, like H2O OD does.  With only 3 grams of sugar per 20 oz bottle, it contains 1/10th the amount of sugar contained in most sports drinks, and it contains 8 grams of protein, the correct balance of electrolytes, amino acids, and over 30 vitamins and minerals, in a precise formula that IS NOT “sugar water with some stuff thrown in”!

Most importantly, is that when an athlete or “weekend warrior” uses this product, they can FEEL THE DIFFERENCE within minutes!  We have additional information about the science behind H2O OD on our website:  www.overdriveoffice.com

About the Jobs (please read carefully):

Area Manager

We currently own the rights to a fairly large area, from the Space Coast to the Gulf Coast and from Kissimmee to Gainesville.  We will need managers covering one or more of these areas.

Ideally, an Area Manager, will be self disciplined, honest and dependable, and have a background in distribution, logistics, and sales team management.

Also, because we are still growing and do not have full distribution in these areas yet, it will be likely that our Area Managers will be grown through our team of Marketing Reps, where the most successful and competent Marketing Reps will have the opportunity to run their entire territory or region.

COMPENSATION:  Salarly + Bonus on area sales volume.  Salary is highly dependent on the candidates ability to add value to the position and the size of the territory being managed.

APPLYING FOR THIS POSITION:  You will need to submit a full resume, along with a detailed cover letter that demonstrates your ability to think, offer ideas, and a brief description of how you would handle a new territory through recruiting Marketing Reps, promoting the product through grassroots and guerilla marketing, and systemize your efforts for efficiency.  Additionally, please provide your income requirements and wishes.  The difference is that the requirement is what you MUST HAVE to survive and not starve while you are building your territory.  The “wishes” part is what income “target” you have for this type of position that you would like to be earning within the first year of getting started.

Forward your cover letter, resume, and recent photo to jobs@overdriveoffice.com 

Marketing Rep

ODC owns the rights to a large region in Central Florida.  We need Marketing Reps to introduce this product to retailers throughout the region to set up new accounts, service existing accounts, and run product promotional events (5Ks, sports events, Triathlons, etc.).

Marketing Reps will be representing the BRAND H2O Overdrive™.  This brand means Excellence in nutrition, and an Active Lifestyle through exercise and sports.  This means that appearance is important.  Although you do not have to be an Olympic Athlete to represent our product, you should live an active lifestyle (biking, skiing, hiking, running, surfing, basketball, football, bodybuilding, boating, or whatever).  You should be physically fit and NOT be a “couch potato”.

Ideally, a Marketing Rep, will be able to define prospects, call on those prospects, and succeed in explaining the benefits of H2O Overdrive™ and securing a new retail account.

To do this, a successful Marketing Rep MUST BE DETAIL ORIENTED.  If you cannot keep a schedule, manage your time, and keep yourself from wasting time throughout the day, this is NOT the job for you!

Lastly, you MUST be able to communicate effectively and LEARN about WHY our product is different from the many other products that are called “sports drinks” or “energy drinks” and be able to explain it when necessary.

COMPENSATION:  You will be paid according to the volume of sales you can produce through account setups and re-orders.  We pay 20% commission on new account setup and 5-7% for all reorders.  Starting reps will receive a draw when starting out of $400 per week.

What does that mean in real money?

A successful rep should be able to visit 10 potential accounts per day and close at least 40% of them.  With an average account setup of $221, each new account would be $44 x 4 per day = $176 x 5 days per week = $880+ per week right away!  Our target for this job is $65,000+ annually, with opportunities for promotion to manage entire territories for successful Marketing Reps.

**DISCLAIMER** - The preceding is an EXAMPLE ONLY and is in no way a guarantee of what you will make.  We have made the example CONSERVATIVE and an experienced salesperson who really works for referrals and maximizes their time could easily double this number.  HOWEVER, if you think the accounts will just come to you and all you have to do is sit at a desk and take orders, you will not only be disappointed, you will be broke!

Additionally, you will be building an account base which will continue to pay you residual commissions as long as you work for ODC.  This is an incentive to serious Marketing Reps and Managers who want a career with the company and will be directly compensated for their hard work in setting up their territory.

APPLYING FOR THIS POSITION:  This position does not require any previous experience or education.  HOWEVER, it is important to note that having an understanding of time management, sales, customer service, and networking will be your keys to success.

You MUST HAVE a dependable vehicle, the ability to lift 75 lbs safely, and valid drivers license.  You will need to be able to load your vehicle with cases of H2O Overdrive™.  So if you have a Mini Cooper as your only vehicle, it may be very difficult for you to accomplish this job.

Please submit a full resume, along with a detailed cover letter that demonstrates your ability to think, offer ideas, and a brief description of how you would handle a new territory.  Send your resume, cover letter and recent photo to jobs@overdriveoffice.com
