The Role:

This role is built for a true "hunter" who thrives on outbound prospecting, building relationships with decision-makers, and executing consultative sales strategies. While opportunities outside these verticals are welcome, you will focus primarily on strategic growth across four core vertical markets: Non-Profit Organizations, Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) Brands, Automotive Tier 2 Dealers & Dealer Groups, and Financial Services.
Key Responsibilities:

· Conduct discovery meetings, deliver data-driven presentations, and lead proposal reviews with marketing executives, business owners, and agency leaders.
· Collaborate with internal strategy and media execution teams to craft customized omnichannel campaign recommendations.
· Build, track, and maintain a robust pipeline of qualified opportunities using our CRM.
· Achieve or exceed net-new revenue targets and performance metrics, including pipeline growth, proposal-to-close conversion rates, deal size, and sales cycle efficiency.
Requirements:
· Proven track record in digital advertising, media, marketing services, or SaaS sales.
· Demonstrated ability to hunter-prospect, self-manage a full sales pipeline from lead generation to close, and consistently hit revenue goals.
· Deep understanding of programmatic media channels (Display, Online Video, CTV, Digital Audio) and how they integrate into holistic marketing campaigns.
· Strong consultative selling skills with the ability to articulate value over price commodity.
· Exceptional communication, presentation, and negotiation skills comfortable engaging C-suite and senior marketing decision-makers.
· Self-motivated, highly organized, and thriving in a performance-driven environment.
Preferred Experience:
· Established network or background selling directly into one or more of our primary target verticals (Non-Profit, DTC, Automotive Tier 2/Dealer Groups, Financial Services).
· Direct experience selling Demand-Side Platform (DSP) media buying, CTV/Video, or MarTech solutions.
· Background working within or selling on behalf of a digital agency.
