Top-producing canvassers — Elite Upgrades is hiring 1-2 in LA County and Northern Orange County. This is not an entry-level position. We're looking for experienced D2D producers who can talk through their numbers.
ABOUT ELITE UPGRADES
We're a CSLB-licensed home improvement contractor (#1138667) based in Torrance, CA. Owner-operated, BBB Accredited, 17+ years industry experience. Four trades: roofing, exterior paint, replacement windows, and driveways. Average ticket $24,000 — your leads close on real numbers across Southern LA County and Northern OC.
COMPENSATION
- $20-30/hour base — set by your track record (top producers at $30), paid weekly
- Weekly Performance Bonuses — chip-based program tied to prior-week appointments, demos, and sales ($20-100 per chip)
- 2% commission on every sale closed from your appointments (avg ≈ $480 per closed sale)
- $200 bonus per Sign-Sale closed — separate yard-sign program at high-visibility homes you've worked
- $500/month bonus for sustaining 12+ appointments/week at a 40%+ sit rate
- Realistic top earners: $2,000+/week. Solid producers: $1,200-1,500/week.
SCHEDULE
- Tuesday through Saturday (Monday and Sunday off)
- Tue-Fri: 12pm office meeting and training, 2pm-sunset field work
- Saturday: 9:30am office, 10am-2pm field
- Company van available for ride-out to territory (optional — our manager drives)
- Built around when homeowners are actually home, not contractor office hours
WHAT YOU NEED TO BRING
- Real producer track record — you've set 25+ appointments in a single month somewhere and can talk through it
- 1+ year of door-to-door experience (canvassing, solar, pest, alarms, home improvement, or similar)
- Reliable transportation (van rides are optional)
- Valid driver's license
- 18+ with ability to pass a basic background check
WHAT WE'RE NOT
- Not a national franchise — small owner-operated team
- Not an MLM, not "buy your own leads" — we generate the demand, you set the appointments
- Not commission-only — base is real and paid weekly
- Not hiring beginners. If you've never canvassed before, this isn't for you.
WHAT YOU GET
- A trained canvassing manager in the field with the team daily
- EDDM mailers, Google Ads, and brand presence warming up the zips before you knock
- Door hangers and Sign-Sale program — your tools for converting your best yards into ongoing leads
- Real career ladder: top producers move up to in-home rep ($100K-$250K/year territory for closers on this team)
- Every paycheck signed by a person who knows your name
HIRING PROCESS
1. 30-minute phone screen — we'll ask about your best month and your last 3 employers
2. 2-day paid audition at $20/hour (~16 hours): Day 1 with our canvassing manager (set 1 appt), Day 2 solo (set 2 appts to advance)
3. Clear weekly performance standards from day one, tied to your pay rate — with a documented raise ladder to $30/hr as you produce
4. We don't check references — we judge by what you do in the audition, not what your last boss says
TO APPLY
Click Apply (resume optional). In the application, you'll be asked for your best month's appointment count and the last 2-3 companies you've canvassed for — answer those clearly, that's what we screen on.
We move fast. Phone screens this week, paid auditions next.
