Here’s a breakdown of the top 5 summer sales companies to work for this summer if you’re selling pest control.
#1 Greenix Back-to-Back Champs
Once again, Greenix clinches the top spot as the best summer sales company in pest to work for in 2025. This pest control company has consistently proven its excellence by earning a composite score of 38.01/40, dominating five out of the eight categories surveyed.
The areas where Greenix truly shines include compensation plans, culture, service, leadership, and training.
What sets Greenix apart is its leadership team, which is made up of individuals with a background in high-level positions from successful organizations. Their entrepreneurial mindset and financial backing allow them to offer competitive pay and create an environment where reps can excel, both in pest sales and in personal growth.
Greenix has made it a priority to ensure its reps are well-supported and set up for success. As a result, their customer service is as exceptional as their sales training. If you’re selling D2D in the pest control industry, Greenix remains the gold standard.
#2 Vantage Canada New Kids on the Block
Making its debut at number two on the list is Vantage Canada, a first-timer in the top five. With a score of 37.48/40, they edged out their U.S. counterpart, Vantage Marketing, by a slim margin.
Vantage Canada scored particularly high in leadership and incentives, with an impressive 4.79/5 in the incentive category, the highest of any company in the survey.
The company’s success can be attributed to its ability to recruit from across all of Canada, operating in every province and territory. Their expansion efforts have made them one of the largest residential pest control companies in Canada, which in turn gives them the ability to offer significant growth opportunities.
Vantage Canada has built a strong brand and reputation, and their leadership team, led by President Brendan Quinlan, continues to create success for their sales reps across the country.
#3 Vantage Marketing Constant & Steady
Vantage Marketing is back at number three, maintaining its spot from last year with an overall score of 37.45/40. This company is recognized for its strong ethics and training programs, both of which earned it top marks in the survey.
Vantage’s commitment to creating clear paths for equity within the company is a major factor in its appeal. Reps are given the chance to earn real ownership, which has contributed to their strong retention.
Vantage’s long-standing reputation and trustworthiness have made it a go-to company for sales reps looking to build a career. Their training programs, led by industry veterans, ensure that new hires are set up for success.
Additionally, Vantage’s leadership team, including joint CEO Tom Karren, is dedicated to fostering a culture of transparency and respect, making it one of the top choices for those looking to grow in the industry.
#4 Hawx Top Notch Organization
Rising from last year’s rankings, Hawx lands at number four in 2025, with an impressive score of 33.74/40. The company excels in two key areas: ethics and leadership.
Hawx places a strong emphasis on training leaders to not only succeed in pest control sales but to develop skills that can carry them through life. This focus on leadership development is key to their success and to the satisfaction of their reps.
Another notable aspect of Hawx is its entrepreneurial spirit. The company supports reps in exploring opportunities beyond door-to-door sales, which allows individuals to diversify their skill sets and passions.
This approach to career development makes Hawx a great choice for those looking for both personal and professional growth.
#5 The Grit Sleeping Giant
The Grit rounds out the top five with a score of 31.41/40, marking its second consecutive appearance on the Top 5. Though newer to the industry, The Grit has quickly built a strong following by prioritizing training and ethics.
