Guide Book Publishing
Role Description Are you a self-motivated "hunter" who thrives on variety? Guide Book Publishing, an industry leader since 1991, is looking for a strategic Advertising Account Executive. Unlike traditional sales roles where you call the same list for years, our team moves to a new assignment every 2-3 weeks, helping local businesses across 24 states reach "micro-communities" through high-quality direct-mail advertising. - The Workflow: You’ll switch assignments frequently, focusing on businesses within a 3-5 mile radius of a specific congregation or community center. - The Method: 70% of your time is spent on high-energy outreach (phone, email, and video meetings); 20% on market research; and 10% on contract execution. - The Flexibility: This is a remote role, but does require getting your materials back to the Post Office to return to the Home Office. - New Business Development: Identify and close new advertising partnerships to meet production goals. - Consultative Sales: Educate local business owners on the ROI of being featured in our community guides and directories. - Relationship Management: Act as the primary liaison between your clients and our operations staff to ensure an excellent experience. - Account Growth: Nurture and maintain large-scale accounts within your metro area. - Administrative Precision: Manage contracts and paperwork accurately and return assignment materials via USPS upon completion. Qualifications - Experience: 1-2 years of sales experience preferred (or equivalent education). - Mindset: A self-starter who can manage their own schedule without being micromanaged. - Skills: Proficient in Excel, scanning, email, and PDF management. Strong ability to calculate discounts and commissions accurately. - Communication: Persuasive verbal skills and clear, professional written communication. Requirements - Valid Driver’s License and Auto Insurance. Benefits - Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance - 401(k) with Company Match - Life Insurance - Paid Time Off (PTO)
