All WNY News, an independently owned media and entertainment company is seeking highly motivated sales people to build our digital advertising department in Buffalo and Rochester.
We are looking for motivated self-starters with a desire to sell and close deals throughout the Western New York region.
Selling display and audio ads to local businesses will require an advanced knowledge of the area, as well as technological savvy; Understanding why digital media is a good buy is necessary to selling it.
Specific responsibilities include:
• Identifying and soliciting new businesses
• Prospecting with cold calling, networking and research
• Understanding and explaining the benefits of digital media
• Selling a multi-platform portfolio (currently display and audio advertisements — video ads to come)
• Developing relationships with clients and an understanding of their businesses, unique situations and challenges
• Ensuring that a high level of customer satisfaction is maintained
• Guiding clients in their advertising choices
• Incredibly annoying paperwork (with a payoff)
The position is commission-based and highly flexible. It can be full- or part-time, but the harder the hiree works, they more they can expect to earn. First-month bonus commission rate should entice the right candidate to get off to a quick start.
Media sales experience is greatly preferred, but attitude and personality will trump a good resume.
Please send PDF resume to sales@allwnynews.com.
All WNY is made possible thanks to coffee and sleep deprivation.
We appreciate your readership. We like money, too.
