With deep local roots and a reputation for quality, we take pride in helping homeowners protect their greatest investment—their home. Our company culture is hands-on, driven, and highly team oriented. We don’t just hire workers; we build leaders. Many of our top-performing sales reps started in this very canvasser role. If you’re looking for a company where you can grow, earn, and make an impact, you’ll find it here. 

Build Your Sales Career from the Ground Up.  

Lifetime Roofing is looking for energetic, outgoing Canvassers to join our Baton Rouge team. This is an active, field-based role ideal for individuals who enjoy being outdoors, talking to people, and want to grow into a high-earning sales position. 

As a Canvasser, you’ll be the first point of contact with potential customers—generating leads, setting up roof inspections, and helping homeowners take the first step toward a better roof. 

What You’ll Be Doing: 

• Knock on residential doors in assigned neighborhoods 

• Start conversations with homeowners and schedule roof inspections 

• Work alongside a salesperson and help keep their inspection calendar full 

• Track activity with a simple notebook and text/call system (no tech headaches) 

• Market our services by distributing flyers, brochures, and other promotional materials 

• Report your activity and results daily to the sales/management team  

• Learn real sales skills that can take your income to the next level 

Schedule: 

• Weekdays: 4:00 PM – 7:00 PM (2–3 evenings/week minimum) 

• Saturdays: Required after 9 AM company meeting, then canvassing into the evening 

• Training: Group sessions every Monday, Wednesday, Friday (9:30 AM – 12:00 PM) 

Pay Structure: 

• Commission: Earn $250–$500+ per closed deal you initiate 

• Hourly Draw: ~$15/hour option available as a no-interest draw against future commissions 

• The more effort that is put in, the more money you make 

• Compensation details finalized during offer 

What You’ll Need: 

• A valid driver's license and reliable transportation 

• Comfortable working on foot, outdoors, and in the heat 

• A confident, outgoing personality with strong communication skills 

• Self-motivation—you’ll be given direction but expected to take initiative 

• Willingness to learn and grow (many of our top salespeople started here) 

What We Provide: 

• Branded shirts/hats to help you look professional in the field 

• In-depth training on scripting, tonality, sales mindset, and more 

• A clear path to grow  

• A high-energy, team-driven culture that celebrates wins 

This Role Is NOT For: 

• Those looking for a desk job 

• Anyone unwilling to knock on doors and handle rejection 

• People expecting a guaranteed hourly wage without performance 

Ready to grind, grow, and get paid? Apply today and let’s get you out in the field!
