  • Deliver polished, persuasive sales presentations tailored to client objectives and business needs
  • Take ownership of regional revenue goals through proactive pipeline management, account development, and consistent follow-through
  • Monitor competitive activity, industry trends, and market opportunities to identify new avenues for growth
  • Provide exceptional client service, ensuring strong communication and long-term partner satisfaction

The ideal candidate will have/be:


  • 5+ years of experience in media sales, advertising sales, sales planning, or a related client-facing role
  • Demonstrated ability to independently manage a sales territory, develop client relationships, and drive revenue growth
  • Experience working with agencies and direct clients in a major market
  • Proven experience selling digital advertising solutions, sponsorships, and/or integrated media packages
  • Familiarity with prospecting and research tools such as MediaRadar, Winmo, or similar platforms
  • Online video sales experience is a plus
  • Entrepreneurial and self-directed, with the ability to identify opportunities and build a market with a high degree of autonomy
  • Strong communication, negotiation, and presentation skills, with the ability to build lasting client relationships
