Job Description
We publish a popular tourist advertising magazine — a well-established print publication serving the greater Poconos region — and we're seeking a proactive, experienced Advertising Sales representative to sell advertising packages to our existing advertisers and bring in new ones. This is a flexible, part-time role ideal for someone who knows how to sell advertising B2B and can operate with a high level of independence and accountability. It's designed to be done alongside a job you already have. Compensation & Structure Part-time, 1099 contract role — very flexible, roughly 10-15 hours per week. Guaranteed Base Pay of $2,500 per month + recurring commission Excellent Recurring Commission Structur e (details discussed during the interview). Our "recurring" commission means when you make a sale, you collect the commission on that sale every month with no additional work on your part. This will allow you to increase your pay beyond the base of $2,500. Built to fit around an existing job — a great side gig you can run on your own schedule. Potential to grow as the magazine and advertiser base expand. What You'll Do Sell advertising packages in our print magazine to businesses throughout the greater Poconos region — renewing and growing accounts with current advertisers, and prospecting and closing new ones. Build and maintain strong relationships with local business owners, acting as a trusted advisor on how to promote their business in the magazine. Conduct outreach via in-person visits, phone, email, and social media to set meetings and close deals. Help shape and refine the overall sales approach (prospecting, outreach, follow-up, sales cadence, offer structure, and pricing ideas). Provide regular updates on pipeline, activity, and results, and bring ideas to improve conversion and retention. Represent the magazine professionally in the community and at local events when appropriate. What We're Looking For Proven experience in advertising sales, media sales, or a similar B2B sales role — ideally selling ad space to small local businesses.
