Summer 2026 Legacy Restoration | Chicagoland (Lombard, Illinois)
Earn While You Learn (Real Sales Experience).
Looking for an internship where you actually gain real-world experience AND get paid based on your performance?
At Legacy Restoration, you won't be sitting in meetings or doing admin work-you'll be out in the field, building skills in sales, business development, and customer engagement that directly impact revenue.
What You'll Do
- Connect with homeowners and introduce company services
- Generate leads and schedule property inspections
- Support active sales opportunities and follow-ups, participate in neighborhood outreach and storm-response efforts
- Track activity and performance in company systems
- Work directly with Sales Representatives on territory strategy
Compensation
- $25/hour base pay
- $80 bonus per completed appointment (UNCAPPED)
Example: 10 completed appointments/week = $800 bonus + hourly pay
What You'll Gain
- Real experience in sales, business, and entrepreneurship
- Exposure to how revenue is generated (not just observed)
- Mentorship from experienced sales leaders
- Skill development in communication, negotiation, and confidence
- Opportunity for full-time offer after graduation
Schedule & Program Details
- Summer Internship (10-12 weeks)
- Start: May-June (flexible)

Who Should Apply - This role is a great fit for students who are:
- Interested in sales, business, or entrepreneurship
- Competitive, driven, and goal-oriented
- Comfortable talking to new people
- Looking to build real-world experience (not just a resume line)
Preferred Majors: Business, Marketing, Communications (all majors welcome)
Bonus if you are:
- Interested in commission-based or high-earning roles
Requirements
- Must be currently enrolled in a college/university
- Reliable transportation required
- Comfortable working outdoors and in a fast-paced environment
Why This Internship Stands Out Most internships = shadowing and busy work This internship = real responsibility + real earnings + real skills
You'll leave with:
- Experience you can actually talk about in interviews
- Confidence in professional communication
- A clear understanding of how businesses grow revenue
Additional Development Opportunities
- 1:1 mentorship with Regional Sales Managers (bi-weekly)
- Monthly training with VP of Sales
