Colorado Sales & General Manager

Good Daze is a start up beverage company bringing a cleaner energy alternative to market — a green tea-based energy drink built for people who want a lift without the crash. We're early-stage, scrappy, and looking for someone who wants to build something from the ground up, not manage an established machine.

Position Overview

We're hiring a hybrid Boots-on-the-Ground Salesperson & General Manager to lead our local market and ongoing operations in Greeley and the surrounding Northern Colorado region. This is a rare dual role: you'll be out in the field every day getting the product onto shelves and into hands, while also owning the operational backbone that keeps the business running — logistics, admin, and events.

This is a contractor position, ideal for someone who wants outsized responsibility and impact at a growing company, and who's comfortable wearing many hats in a fast-moving startup environment.

• Oversee day-to-day business operations, including inventory management and order fulfillment
• Coordinate with delivery person(s), co-packers, distributors, and suppliers to ensure consistent product availability
• Assist with hiring, training, and supervising additional sales or operations staff as the company grows
• Monitor and report on key business metrics (sales volume, account growth, margins, expenses) to leadership
• Manage local vendor and warehouse relationships, including filling out vendor forms for new local partners
• Ensure compliance with local health, licensing, and beverage distribution regulations
• Support budgeting and cost-control efforts as a member of the founding operations team
• Work with the bookkeeper to send invoices

Requirements & Qualifications

• Independent contractor status (1099)
• Must have a reliable personal vehicle for daily deliveries, account visits, and event travel throughout Northern Colorado
• Valid driver's license and clean driving record
• Current auto insurance meeting Colorado state minimums (proof required)
• General liability insurance, or willingness to obtain
