Commission Sales Associate

Company: AviNika Jewelry

Company Description
AviNika is a boutique luxury jewelry house creating bespoke and semi-custom diamond pieces that commemorate life's most meaningful moments. As the official jewelry partner of Houston Fashion Week SS26 and featured in duPont REGISTRY and VoyageDallas, we've built a reputation for craft and distinction well beyond our size. We're a small, founder-led team in a deliberate growth phase, which means the person who joins us now helps shape what AviNika becomes.
About the role
This is a commission-only remote independent contractor role selling one-of-one custom fine jewelry. You'll work leads from inquiry through deposit and final payment: reaching out to cold and warm leads, running consultations by video and phone, following up persistently, negotiating, and closing. You'll represent a distinctive brand to a discerning clientele, so you'll need to genuinely understand and care about the craft.
Compensation is commission-only with a graduated structure, no base salary. Strong performers can expect meaningful monthly earnings; we're happy to discuss realistic ranges with candidates who reach the interview stage.
You must have
* Fluent English, written and spoken — this is a client-facing role with US clients
* Direct experience selling jewelry, ideally custom or fine jewelry, and ideally in a remote setting
* A track record with cold outreach, structured follow-up, and closing/negotiation — you're comfortable driving a sale, not just taking orders
* Comfort working independently and remotely with CRM tools and digital communication
* A long-term mindset: you're looking to build something over time, not chase a quick payout
Strong pluses
* Hand-sketching ability to support custom design conversations
* Background in luxury retail or the jewelry/gemstone industry
* Familiarity with the commission/custom process end to end
Important fit notes — please read
* This role commits to standard contractor terms including confidentiality, non-diversion of company leads, and protection of our brand's signature aesthetic. If long-term commitments of that kind aren't right for where you are, this likely isn't the role for you.
* You may not operate or work for a competing jewelry business. Any independent jewelry work must be disclosed up front and free of conflict with this role.
* We care most about someone who wants to understand our brand deeply and grow with it. Culture and craft fit matter as much as sales numbers.
