About Amplifying Life We're a London-based light research, education, and hardware company building devices that put photobiomodulation science to work. In short: • Foreword to our book The Sun Inside You by Prof. Michael R. Hamblin PhD — the scientist who named the field (600+ peer-reviewed publications), now on our scientific advisory board, • Members of the Royal Society of Medicine, Microsoft for Startups, Barclays Eagle Labs, and Capital Enterprise, • Founded by an engineer with 20+ years in embedded electronics; patents cited by Microsoft, Google, Apple, Qualcomm, and Cisco The role Earn up to £12,000 across your first 10 placements — £1,000 guaranteed base + up to ~£11,000 commission. We are hiring field sales representatives to place photobiomodulation (red-light therapy) devices into retail locations across London — starting with Central London. This is a fixed-term contract for self-employed professionals. Guaranteed base payment of up to £1,000 for documented work delivered, plus a substantial commission upside of up to ~£11,000 on top if the first 10 free-trial placements land successfully — that's where the real money is. Neither the shops nor their customers pay upfront, so this isn't traditional "sell it for cash" selling. You're placing free trial units with receptive locations. If the trials work, the upside is real. Photobiomodulation is a global market estimated in the hundreds of millions to over a billion dollars, growing fast. We are not selling into a dead category — we are early in a rising one. What you will be doing · Researching target locations, identifying the right owner or manager, and reaching out by phone or email · Booking meetings to explain what we do, sign a simple agreement, place the free trial devices and materials on site, and give the location's staff a short first briefing on how to offer the product to their customers · Coming back to check in, and keep the relationship warm This is not desk work. This is not tele-sales. This is real, face-to-face relationship-building with business owners across one of the best cities in the world. What we are looking for · You are in London and can move around Central London on foot and public transport · You are comfortable picking up the phone to someone you have never met, introducing yourself, and booking a meeting · You can explain something technical in plain English without sounding like a brochure · You are resilient — not every conversation will go your way, and that is normal in sales · You believe in the project and are here to build, not just to bill us for every fifteen minutes Useful but not required: prior sales experience (beauty, medical devices, premium retail, consumer electronics, FMCG), knowledge of photobiomodulation or red-light therapy, a driving licence, existing relationships with London retail locations. We are open to candidates at any level of experience — what matters is that you can see the upside and back yourself to earn it. The offer Guaranteed base pay up to £1,000 — for documented work, no outcome dependency: · £200 on delivery of a verified log of 50 owner/manager contacts at target businesses · £40 per attended in-person meeting, pro-rata up to 20 meetings (max £800) On top of the base — where the real money sits: · Up to ~£11,000 commission if the first 10 free-trial placements land and convert as planned · Territory expansion — if the first territory performs, you earn the option to run additional London areas under the same structure · Direct line to the founder. You work directly with Asim, not through three layers of management · Our devices are built on technology grounded in over 10,000 peer-reviewed studies in photobiomodulation, plus research directly relevant to our specific approach. Comparable products are already selling well in the market — we are just making it more accessible. · Room to grow. This role can become something much bigger for the right person How to apply Apply through official job post. We read every application personally. If we think there's a fit, we'll be in touch.
