Who is Whip Around?

Whip Around was born in 2016, originally to help freight companies in New Zealand tackle their paper-based compliance burden. It was whilst working for some of the globe’s largest freight companies, that we saw first-hand how much time paper was costing fleet managers every day. Within a year, the US market was calling loudly as Whip Around met a clear pain point for businesses with fleets.  Whip Around now services customers from coast to coast in the US and around the world.

What success will look like:

As a 1099 Outside Sales Representative, you will operate as an independent contractor responsible for driving new business within your territory. This commission-based role is perfect for motivated, entrepreneurial individuals who thrive in a high-energy, target-driven environment.

As an independent contractor with Whip Around, you’ll have the freedom to shape your own schedule and income potential while representing a leading-edge solution in the fleet management space. Contractors are responsible for their own expenses, including transportation, communication, and work-related equipment.

You’ll focus on building relationships, showcasing Whip Around’s value, and closing deals with small to mid-sized businesses.

  • Identify and Target Prospects: Build a robust pipeline by identifying potential customers within your assigned territory (Charlotte, Florida, Texas).
  • Drive Sales Activities: Conduct face-to-face meetings, presentations, and product demonstrations to highlight Whip Around’s value proposition.
  • Close Deals: Collaborate with internal teams to manage the sales cycle and finalize contracts, earning commissions for closed deals.
  • Build Relationships: Foster strong, long-term relationships with prospects and customers to promote referrals and repeat business.
  • Track Sales Performance: Utilize provided tools and resources to monitor performance metrics and sales activities.
  • Stay Informed: Maintain a thorough understanding of Whip Around’s offerings and the competitive landscape to effectively address customer pain points.

Requirements

What you’ll bring to the role:

  • Proven experience in outside sales or a similar commission-based role.
  • Entrepreneurial mindset with a hunter’s mentality.
  • Exceptional communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills.
  • Ability to manage time effectively and prioritize tasks in a remote, self-directed environment.
  • Confidence in handling objections and overcoming challenges.
  • Experience in fleet management or transportation sectors is a plus.

What you need to know about the Los Angeles Tech Scene

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.

Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech

  • Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
  • Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
  • Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
  • Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
  • Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
  • Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
