What You’ll Do
  • Leverage new and existing relationships to create and execute a sales pipeline
  • Manage existing client and agency relationships, while developing new business opportunities
  • Use consultative and solution-based selling to understand client challenges and match them with Genius’s full suite of product solutions
  • Deliver impactful, data-driven presentations rooted in cultural relevance
  • Host a minimum of 5-7 weekly meetings both virtually and in-person.
  • Meet and exceed quarterly and annual revenue goals
  • Collaborate with marketing and client service teams during pre-sale and post-sale with a solutions-oriented mindset

What We’re Searching For

  • 5+ years of successful, quota-carrying media sales experience with a record of meeting or exceeding goals
  • Empathetic go-getter with a positive spirit and “win-win” attitude
  • Strong understanding of the marketplace with proven success selling multifaceted programs including AI, data, creators, custom content, social, display, programmatic, experiential, and more
  • Established client and agency relationships within the West media market (Southern California, Northern California, and the Pacific Northwest)
  • Strategic and proactive mindset—always looking ahead and thinking big for both your clients and Genius
  • Clear, concise, and authentic communicator with excellent presentation skills
  • Ability to collaborate cross-functionally to ensure client program success and deliver white-glove service
  • Adaptable and resilient; thrives in a fast-paced environment where scaling, building new products, and innovating is exciting
  • Someone who is culturally in the know—whether it’s the latest ad trades or a new album drop
  • Willingness to travel as needed
  • Proficiency in Google Suite and Microsoft Office (Excel, Word, PowerPoint); knowledge of Boostr and Monday.com is a plus
  • Bachelor’s degree preferred

Compensation: Competitive base salary plus uncapped commission with On-Target Earnings (OTE) of 300K+ , along with a comprehensive benefits package.
