About the Internship
Looking for a summer that truly transforms you — not just fills a résumé line? Grit × Forge
Marketing’s Summer Sales Internship is a hands-on, high-income opportunity for college
students who want to fast-track their growth in business, leadership, and communication. As a
Sales Intern, you’ll join a motivated team of student entrepreneurs working face-to-face with
homeowners, representing one of the fastest-growing pest control brands in the country. Our
program operates in thriving markets across the U.S. — including Phoenix, Dallas, Houston,
Orlando, and more. You’ll learn to sell, lead, and influence with confidence — while earning
uncapped commissions and building real experience that stands out anywhere you go.
What You’ll Gain
• Uncapped Income Potential: Most interns earn $10,000 – $15,000 in a single summer.
• Housing Provided: Live with your team in fully furnished company housing near your
assigned market.
• Comprehensive Sales Training: Receive daily mentorship and structured training from
industry-leading sales professionals and 7-figure earners.
• Leadership Advancement: High performers earn opportunities to recruit and manage teams
in future seasons.
• Resume-Ready Experience: Build tangible, real-world business experience that employers
and investors notice.
• Performance Incentives: Enjoy bonuses, company trips, and friendly competitions
throughout the summer.
What You’ll Learn
• How to communicate with confidence and master human psychology in sales.
• Advanced goal setting, accountability, and performance management.
• Key aspects of marketing, lead generation, and customer relations.
• Real-world entrepreneurship and team leadership principles.
Who Thrives Here
We care less about your background and more about your ambition. This role is built for
college students and young adults who are:
• Competitive, driven, and growth-minded.
• Interested in sales, entrepreneurship, or leadership experience.
• Excited to step outside their comfort zone and earn serious money.
• Open to relocating for the summer.
• Coachable and eager to learn from proven mentors.
