Job Description

WOW CUSTOMERS & ROCK THE SALES GAME: TEES, HATS, STICKERS, MEMORIES & MORE

THE OPPORTUNITY: At EMI-TGT, part of the Lakeshirts family, we're in the memory-making business. For more than 30 years, we've been creating travel- and adventure-inspired products that celebrate where people go and what they experience along the way. From bold stickers and accessories to stylish tees, hats, and cozy sweatshirts, our designs help retailers tell stories-and help customers take a piece of their adventure home.

We're looking for a Sales Representative who's ready to grow business, build relationships, and bring energy to the road. In this role, you'll partner closely with our National Sales Manager to expand our retailer base, strengthen existing accounts, and make sure EMI-TGT products stand out in shops across your territory.

This isn't a buttoned-up, corporate sales job. We're creative, fast-moving, and fueled by originality. If you love selling products that spark emotion, connect with travelers, and turn moments into memories....this might be your next great adventure.

TERRITORY: Washington State- we're looking for someone located anywhere in the state, who is willing to travel. If this sounds like a fit for you, let's talk.

SCHEDULE & PAY: You decide. Hit the road, sell, and then take time for YOU. More hustle = more sales = more reward.

QUALIFICATIONS | Driven + Independent + Personable + Results-Focused

  • Strong at relationship building and connecting with diverse customer bases
  • Comfortable traveling within your territory to support customers
  • Goal-oriented and able to work independently

About Lakeshirts

Lakeshirts is a custom apparel decorating company that started in our owner’s parents’ basement in 1984. We have since grown to an $200 million+ company in a 275,000 square foot facility. Our production floor includes 48 automatic screenprint presses, 32 multi-head embroidery machines, six 60-foot laser appliqué bridges, three sublimation presses, and a number of dogs running around the place.

Lakeshirts sales continue to grow, as does its profitability, due to the hard work and continuous improvement efforts of its 500+ employees and over 60 nation-wide reps.

Lakeshirts provides decorated apparel to thousands of customers in the resort and college markets, being a preferred choice to customers based on its breadth of great designs, great garments in its inventory, and reliable and responsive delivery.

With more than 40 artists on our staff, we create thousands of pieces of art each year, giving each customer a unique look. We have over 100 bodystyles in stock, and each one comes in a multitude of colors, totaling more than 1,000,000 pieces in our inventory.

This is all done in a culture that reflects respect, community, and fun. Our culture is second-to-none and must be experienced to be truly understood. If you happen to be in the lakes area, we invite you to stop in and see for yourself. We always enjoy visits, and we’re proud to show off the community that we’ve called “home” for all of our lives. And if you happen to bring along a Milk Bone or two with you, we know you’ll make some very quick and deep friendships.
