If you are a dynamic and motivated new business account executive, with a media background, who wants to work at a fun, stable media advertising agency then read on.
We are looking for a mid level Business Development Account Executive to join our team. Your main goals will be twofold: to identify prospects who can benefit from our services and get meetings for our senior executives and to field inquiries about our services, vetting them for senior staff evaluation.
You are a dynamic individual who enjoys attending networking events to prospect with potential clients. You have a fearless, competitive and professional personality. You will be making cold-calls to generate leads and you will be qualifying your leads, generating sales materials and meetings. You are expected to have enough knowledge of media that you can easily converse with those who inquire of our services. You will be maintaining a Salesforce.com database. You are motivated by the sales process, understand that it begins with the first phone call/email/hand shake, and will do what it takes to guide the prospect through the sales cycle.
Previous experience in digital media is required. You need to understand our business, our services, be intimate with our case studies and talk the media talk. You are a team-player with good judgment and you can manage projects with limited guidance.
You need to be a polished writer as you will be preparing responses to inquiries. Your verbal skills are engaging. You can think quickly and creatively, multi-task and meet deadlines. You need to be computer literate, proficient with Microsoft Office and know your way around the Internet.
A college degree in business is required along with some media experience and a personality for inside sales. This is not a commissioned position but has the potential for a year-end and occasional spot bonuses. Please provide your annual salary requirement along with a cover letter that convinces us you are the right match for this position.
