You will manage an existing book of business while actively prospecting, balancing customer retention with new revenue growth.

What You Will Do - Execute a high volume of outbound and inbound sales activity (50+ calls per day). - Manage and grow a book of existing clients with recurring advertising needs. - Prospect for new business while proactively retaining and expanding current accounts. - Run short, transactional sales cycles with speed and accuracy. - Recommend and sell customized print and digital advertising solutions. - Handle order entry, updates, and campaign adjustments efficiently. - Use Salesforce and internal tools to track activity, manage pipeline, and maintain organization. - Balance prospecting, client communication, and administrative work throughout the day.

Key Skills & Attributes - Phone-first mindset with confidence in high-volume outbound calling. - Strong time management and attention to detail. - Comfort working independently in a remote environment. - Ability to quickly learn and navigate multiple systems and tools. - Adaptability and curiosity when selling both print and digital solutions. - Strong customer service skills paired with a results-driven sales approach. - You do not need to be a media expert—but you do need to confidently: - Explain the value of local print and classifieds. - Show how digital solutions expand reach, frequency, and response. - Tailor advertising packages to meet client goals. What You Will Gain - Base salary of $40,000 + uncapped commission (OTE $55K–$60K in year one). - 3-month commission guarantee to support ramp-up. - 100% remote work environment. - Full benefits: medical, dental, vision, 401(k), PTO, and more. - Ongoing training, coaching, and career development. - Incentives and recognition programs. What to Expect - A fast-paced, high-pressure environment with constant activity. - Short sales cycles that reward speed, accuracy, and follow-through. - A steady pipeline supported by existing clients and ongoing prospecting. - Multiple active accounts with frequent deadlines and updates. - This role is ideal for someone who enjoys staying busy, working quickly, and seeing the direct impact of their effort every day. What Success Looks Like - First 90 Days: Learn systems, build call volume, and develop confidence managing client activity. - 6 Months: Handle high volume efficiently with strong accuracy and consistency. - 12 Months: Fully productive, managing a large book of business while consistently hitting goals.
